Vote for Prop 100

Tensions are high around the office again due to budget cuts. There have been emails from the city manager explaining about how the city is going to cut the funds to meet the budget. As it currently stands, no one will be getting a pay cut, but this will be contingent on whether Prop 100 passes. If Prop 100 does not pass, many cities believe the state will be taking the money from the state shared revenue. With a city that is already scraping by, another blow will costly. This would be their second pay cut. If this keeps occurring, I wonder how long the employees will stay with the city. I know the situation will not get as bad as Greece, but I wonder how many blows the city employees can take.
