A San Francisco BART janitor’s base salary is just under $58,000, but one man made a staggering $271,000 by augmenting his salary with overtime pay.
In 2015, BART janitor, Liang Zhao Zhang, managed to quadruple his base pay, raking in more than a quarter of a million dollars, according to a report.

The report from Transparent California says Zhang worked an average of 114 hours a week in 2015. His overtime in 2015 amounted to $162,000. Three BART janitors earned a combined $365,000 in overtime last year, BART officials reported to KRON4.
Reports say Zhang isn’t the only BART employee to take advantage of the overtime.
On the heels of the reports, BART officials now claim that overtime will no longer available for janitors in 2017.
