[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in a non-profit, so arguably, really serving--not faux "public service" that government employees claim. So I probably make less and do not get a pension. So please spare me the "years of public service." We're all working hard, so there's no argument there. You are not changing the world, and you didn't go into government work to make the world a better place, you did it for security, the fact that it's nearly impossible to get fired, and for the pension. Public service. Please.[/quote] You want to repeat that to my husband at NIH, who has worked on cancer, Alzheimer's and cardio-vascular disease? Researchers who don't work 9-5, because their living model organisms do not replicate, die and give birth 9-5? Researchers who work weekends, nights, according to the requirements of the experiment? When you or a loved one falls sick with a dread disease, bear in mind you criticized the people who identified key pathways and discovered life-saving treatments and medications. Shame on you.
