Snow Job

Just the other day, as I trodded mid-calf through a massive mound of wet snow sludge, I cursed NYC for not being able to plow roads and sidewalks speedily. Today, this comes out:
AP-NYC--Snow Shoveler Jobs,0075
City hiring snow shovelers
NEW YORK (AP) -- Need a job.
New York City is paying ten dollars an hour for snow shovelers. The city's Department of Sanitation is hiring the laborers to remove snow and ice from city sidewalks and curbs.
The pay for the temporary snow shovelers will jump to 15 dollars an hour after the first 40 hours.
People interested in working should report to a Sanitatation Department garage. Call 3-1-1 for more information.
