The first article I read made it clear he was doing 114 hours a week: http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/BART-Janitor-Made-270K-...

The headline figure includes his benefits in order to seem worse in some way. Wages were around $230K.

Reality is 114 hours of work every week makes for a dismal sort of life for most people. Perhaps this is a case of Chinese work ethic plus pension spiking?
