If the $35/day per diem works like it did when I was in the service, and
adding tax-free status (20%???) makes the adjusted income more like $68k. The
DOD used to pay those per diems for every day, not every work day; which would
mean for 365 calendar days instead of 240 working days (adjusted for 4 weeks
vacation).
Still not enough for me, and very few on this board has the prerequisite
Emergency Services dispatching. Basically if you don't have 2 years in a
911 center, no thank you. The listed pay can be as much as 3x what some
dispatchers make after 2 years.
Thanks for the info though.
240 X $35 = $8,400
365 X $35 = $12,775 $44,000 + $12,775 = $56,775 tax-free
$56,775 X 120% = $68,130 equivalent taxed income.
