[quote=Anonymous]Who wouldn't want to get SES?  These days, they don't hand out SES like candy, even to white males, and even despite the fact that many SES are retiring.  These days, it seems EVERYONE is an outlier with minimal feasibility toward getting SES.

Here's what OPM says in their last report about the federal workforce demographic:

"Findings for FY 2011
The Federal workforce is 17.8 percent Black, 8.1 percent Hispanic, 5.6 percent Asian/Pacific Islander, 1.7 percent Native American, 0.8 percent non-Hispanic/Multi-racial, 
and 66.0 percent White.  Minorities as a whole constituted 34.1 percent of the Federal workforce.  Men comprised 56.1 percent of all Federal permanent employees and women 43.9 percent."

Compare those numbers to the most recent Census data, which shows AA population to be 12.6% as opposed to 17.8% in the federal workforce, and a white population of 72.4% as opposed to 66% in the federal workforce.  Asians and Native Americans and Pacific Islanders are also higher percentages in federal workforce than in the general population.

Hispanics are the only major group that is significantly lower as compared to being 16.3% of the population, and women are slightly lower at BLS statistic of 46.9% of the workforce.
