No seriously. How do these people justify the amounts they are pulling down?

The city is paying some 230 “consultants” an average salary of $400,000 a year for a computer project that is seven years behind schedule and vastly over budget.

Eleven CityTime consultants rake in more than $600,000 annually, with three of them making as much as $676,000, city records obtained under a Freedom of Information request show.

The 40 highest-paid people on the project bill taxpayers at least $500,000 a year. These enormous salaries are coming out of a $139 million extension to the CityTime contract that began July 1 and runs to Sept. 30.

Sounds like the New York version of the big dig.

And the damned project doesn’t even work. They should be ashamed. How hard is it to create a time entry system for city employees?
