[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]have you not read all the panicked postings in the Jobs forum about no severance for feds making more the 250K

how is it possible to have so many feds making so much for so long?[/quote]
tenure?  Inflation adjusted increases?

There are not "so many" feds making more than 250k.

There are few vocal feds on the jobs forum who are probably not old enough to retire, making 250k, but are in their 50s and early 60s and in that age range where private industry hates to hire but when most people need to work until they are at least 65-69, as republicans wanted many years ago.

It's going to take them a while, probably carrying a sfh with a high mortgage in the DC metro and kids who are in college or approaching college age. It's hard to have kids early when you need a PhD or MD to do your job.

My friend has a PhD and has worked as a fed for 15+ years at FDA, is now a manager, and just started to make more than 200k recently. Most of his reports under 40 are looking to get out.

I'm sure there are soooo many younger people who want to (and are smart enough) spend ten years of their lives in higher education to then move to the DC metro, maybe be able to afford to buy a sfh (or not), and then have people insult them for it. All for less than 200k a year to start.  /s[/quote]
