Your generalisations are not doing your argument any favours. Let me guess, you 'know' a guard who gets paid to go off and play GAA.
Teachers start on the third point of the scale.
41k is their starting wage, so 45k at age 25 is possible.
My father retired aged 62 on 72k, very common. His pension is 35-35k approx, or nearly 700 pw. Also very common.
What is the point of the first two points on the scale?
Good question. Custom and practice. Maybe used if you didn't have appropriate qualifications.
If the scale only goes up to €63,000, how is it very common for people to retire on 72K?. Was he a school Principal?
Bear in mind that all teachers get basic + degree allowance + HDip allowance. He also got an A-Post allowance of maybe 5-6k as he was in charge of exams.
Also, even if a teacher does start on the third point, unless they began teaching at 19 they couldn't be on €45,000 at age 25.
That 41k basic is made up of point 3 + honours degree allowance + honours HDipEd allowance.

once they reach the end of the scale they start to get long term sevice increments. so they keep on getting extra every year even after hitting the top of the scale!!!
tlc - the private sector should be the place of choice to work for irish people but its the opposite here, everyone wants a governement job.
They do now. A few years ago people were turning their noses up at many public sector jobs and laughing at us for not being out earning mega bucks somewhere.
if people want to leave the private sector for a cushy job with a good pension in the public sector then they should have to take a massive pay cut
Another sweeping generalisation
