Good morning, Washington. Are you one of the 200,000 Washington area workers currently toiling away at a non-profit? Well according to a big article in the Post this morning, you're probably also setting yourself up to escape to the private sector in order to make more money, which could lead to a big leadership vacuum in the near future. A new report from the Annie E. Casey Foundation found that 69 percent of non-profit workers feel underpaid, about 67 percent have financial concerns about committing to a career in the sector, and almost half worry they will not make enough money to retire comfortably. Authorities are worried that a massive exodus of younger workers that could coincide with when baby boomers retire would lead to a dearth of essential social services offered by some non-profits.

Series of Attacks on Maryland Cab Drivers: Someone has attacked at least six Maryland cab drivers while they were inside the District, reports the Post. The suspect, who the victims think is a D.C. cab driver, appears to be targeting the Maryland drivers because he believed they were breaking the rules about out-of-town cabs picking up fares while they're inside the city limits. The suspect has slashed tires, broken windows and mirrors, and in one case, used his car, described as a white Crown Victoria that may have had the word "Roper" on it, to ram one of the Maryland cabs while the driver was inside it. That driver suffered several broken ribs.

Money for Nothing?: The Examiner wrote over the weekend that Dulles Rail contractors Bechtel and Washington Group International reached an agreement Friday with the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority that allows them to continue engineering and utility work for another month, despite the fact that the entire project appears to be doomed. A final decision on funding from the Federal Transit Administration, which has been in doubt for some time, may come in the next two weeks. In the meantime, work on the rail extension will continue as if the project were right on schedule.
