By Joe Eskenazi, Mission Local December 14, 2021 The numbers simply beggar belief. In fiscal 2020, San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department head ranger Marcus Santiago worked 1,720 overtime hours — nearly 35 a week. That's on top of his regular schedule, so Santiago was averaging 76 hours a week. Santiago worked one out of every 25 overtime hours for Recreation and Park that year — in a department with nearly 2,300 people on its payroll. He amassed 90 times more overtime than the average Rec and Parks worker. And, astoundingly, this is typical. Santiago actually worked more the prior year, 1,733 hours. Going back a decade, he has earned more than $1 million in overtime. To read the full article, click here.
