[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When are we going to stop throwing money at glorified secretaries (government employees). Anybody can enter a few lines into a spreadsheet, write a memo, and send an e-mail. Feds have no special skills and should not be compensated as if they do[/quote]

Sounds like you are bitter from being rejected by the feds. [/quote]

I find it shocking how many companies are funded through federal dollars and none of these people understand how the money shows up in those accounts, how their social security checks are sent, how the national parks remain clean, how their mail is delivered, how their bank deposits are insured, how their roads remain drivable, how their passports are issued……

Those bitter imbeciles were rejected for a reason. [/quote]

Agree.  Anti-Feds want to live in a country with dirty air, dirty water, elderly poor people sitting on the side of the road (or moving in with them), no public transportation, terrible roads, an uneducated populace, Russia or some other foreign adversary launching missile strikes, terrorist incidents on a daily basis, no airport screening, planes flying wherever and whenever they want, the power grid going down on a regular basis, dams overflowing and flooding entire communities, etc. [/quote]

They always say “the government people do NOTHING. It’s all just contractors”.

And yet, there is a plethora of work that is “inherently governmental” that they don’t even know exists.

I’m in IT. I started as a Developer. Now, I do a host of “inherently governmental” tasks that most contractors are completely unaware exists, and yet is integral to how work is accomplished.

I once had a contractor message me after I left and say “wow, I never realized how much you did until you left and they didn’t do it well.”

Right. If you’re totally unaware of the work your Federal POC does, it doesn’t mean they do nothing. It means that maybe they do nothing…..or maybe you just don’t know what they do because you’ve never had to deal with it.[/quote]
