No one cares[/quote]

Exactly.

Companies like IBM, Xerox, Kodak, Westinghouse, US Steel, ATT, the auto companies 
, etc., etc. have laid off / cut the jobs of hundreds of thousands. The private sector had to change to survive. Job security is a relic of the past.

Now it’s the Federal Government’s turn. And it’s looooong overdue.

And in the private sector you have to produce something that’s a foreign concept to Government people. That’s RESULTS. [/quote]

During my master's program I was an intern at a federal agency  and was placed in charge of producing a congressionally-mandated report on a housing issue.  I had worked in the private sector before grad school and just treated it like a private sector job.   No one told me that I couldn't make hidebound GS-13s actually work so that I could produce the report.  They hated me because I gave them deadlines and then enforced them.  I worked on the report for nine months and it was the first report from that agency ever sent to Congress not only on time -- but ahead of time.  I  voluntarily ended my year long internship and went racing back to the private sector.   [/quote]
