What Idiots Placed Schools on Busy State Roads

It's hard for me to comprehend how any trade has the potential of working that much overtime & special duty. I would also think that that person might not be alert during regular duty due to working long hours.

You seem to be making the assumption that his "normal" 40 hours are comprised of Regular and Holiday pay only, and that OT and Special duty are in addition to those 40 hours. Even though starting pay for a trooper is more than the combination of Regular and Holiday pay.

It would appear that Special Duty is, at least part of, his "normal" 40 hours. Special Duty could be being called out here as a separate line item because, if I am reading the website correctly, public companies pay that part of his salary.
