No retirement and only “benefit” is a $25/month cell phone allowance. Also, I’ve recently had to set my employee evaluation for late May/early June so we can appropriate a raise prior to the fiscal year to set the budget accordingly –I didn’t do this last year and got a new President which caused a little confusion so I would STRONGLY encourage you to set the dates (possibly in your work plans) so you can plan accordingly. <BR>

</SPAN></FONT><FONT FACE="Helvetica, Verdana, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12pt'>I had a quick question on benefits various Main Street programs offer. We’re on a fiscal year, and it’s time to start talking about budget/salary negotiations. So I’m wondering, how many of you have any sort of retirement (and is it matched, if so how much) and what your vacation/leave time is (specifically for those employed there less than 5 years). Thanks in advance!<BR>
