As usual half baked comparisons without any real concern for substance.
The Spanish Prime Minister lives here
If you have a house paid for, and probably meals etc provided, and perhaps allowances for suits etc, then the salary becomes pocket money.0 -

Did we not buy Farmleigh House or was it only as a kind hany place to welcome. Do all the Spanish minsters have fine houses as well and if not are they on higher salarys than the PM:rolleyes:

The banks were regulated ( or supposed to have been ) by the public sector. Had the regulator, central bank, dept of finance and government ( all public service, paid by the taxpayer ) done their jobs property, the country would not be in the mess its in. The bank debt was taken on by the public sector. The public sector did not take on the bad debts of other private sector firms which were badly run. The banks are now public sector you can say, having been largely nationalised.
Thought you would know that, an educated man like you.
Too late. It was after the fact

OK, so lets look at a sample of jurisdictions, never mind the whole world, 2009 data pre cut.
secretarial positions, Ireland is not highest
senior management, Ireland is not the highest
teachers, Ireland is not the highest
medical, OK we were highest for consultants, but not for GPs or nurses
there are feck all consultants, they hardly affect the average
how about professionals, oddly enough Ireland is not top here either

Armacha needs to realise that "The average adult has 0.997 breasts and 0.999 testicles. This isn't really a useful piece of information for comparing people". Instead of taking isolated groups of employees, he/she needs to find average public sector wage in different countries. The cso does it in Ireland. Bet Armacha cannot find another country with as highly paid a public service as ours.
So on the one hand you acknowledge the limitation of using the average.........
Except when it suits you!
Your average is better than his/hers like, is it?!
What you need to realise is that taking "the average" for the entire PS in any country is not a valid comparison, as the extent of the PS / level of privatisation etc... differ from country to country - so the only valid comparison is between the same job in different countries... which Ardmacha has shown, and you haven't0 -

Is this a comparison with other bankrupt countries per chance?OK, so lets look at a sample of jurisdictions, never mind the whole world, 2009 data pre cut.

senior management, Ireland is not the highest
teachers, Ireland is not the highest

Jayus Ardmacha I am married now but when I was young free and single I felt a bit here and there now considering that your average adult has less than one #i# and I never came across any women with less than two so most men must have no breast:eek:. Now it might be different from a womens but it is still breast. Even Shakespeare knew
that what it was Shylock was looking for said pound of flesh from Antonio breast. Was Antonio the only man with a #i# or two.
The other part of your post could be correct I have not come across a women with ba##s.
But then again I presume that you are the teacher :rolleyes:0 -

Do public servants in other jurisdictions not sometimes have to work with spoiled little brats, whingers and scumbags too? Why does the public servant in Belmullet or Bandon deserve twice as much as the public servent in Banbridge, Birmingham or Berlin?
Can you show me where the Irish teacher is paid twice as much as the British or German teacher? Looks like you're just talking unsupportable waffle again - at this stage I'd suggest you check for foam around your mouth and maybe then get yourself to the Doctor in the morning.OK, so lets look at a sample of jurisdictions, never mind the whole world, 2009 data pre cut.
