Some people like working in the public sector. Some of us are dedicated civil servants who enjoyed the stability but who aren’t “handcuffed” by anything. What is wrong with these hacks from Elon’s doge? |
I have been out of gov for awhile, but while working for a startup in early 2000's we hired a lawyer from SEC. she came with amazing recommendations. hard working , smart etc etc. she joined and dived in, after a few weeks she realized that the software development was working hard hours. she was asked to come into an all hands on Saturday morning and was aghast. how could the company ask someone to work the weekends. she went back to the SEC within a month. guess they liked her work ethic of 7 hours a day and no weekends. gov lawyers are a special breed, smart but lazy, and glad to stay in the gov with the process and controls to protect their work life. |
Same here. You know there are actually people who try to work for others and not just where they can make the most money. My DC just accepted a job at the VA as physician although they could make more than double in private practice: Stupid kid wants to help veterans, but maybe they’ll see the light… |
GAO reports on the USPTO say otherwise. In order to meet their quotas, unpaid overtime is expected, with 70% or so reguarly working it to keep their jobs. Of course there's waste in any system. |
While your intent is nice, I doubt these POS brats care. I cannot believe what utter losers they are. |
I don't condone violence, but of course people would be happy about this. They were cheering for weeks about the UHC situation. |
I hope they rot in jail for treason! |
And if they don’t, they will be social pariahs. |
The one that has a wife and kind, living in one of the government buildings? You think that he’s regretting it yet? lol. What a selfish little twat to drag a child into this. |
Kind=kid! |
Why on earth did he do that? Did they all move here and not bother to find an apartment? |
Oh, well...if you knew one person who didn't want to work weekends...gasp....the horror....did she want to actually spend time with her family...how insane.... that must mean all feds are lazy. I'm beginning to think working in the private sector has driven all of you mad. Or maybe just so angry, you don't know reality anymore. |
Agree. She sounds smart. A special breed, a smart lawyer. |
we didn't hire anymore gov lawyers and we did very well. the other lawyers fit in well with the demands of the job. |
Elon demands 80 work wee from his employees. Did you see his post where he was chiding the feds from not working Saturdays and Sundays so that made him so much farther ahead at winning. |
