[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You will not be the first person to lose their job due to cutbacks and you won’t be the last. Polish the resume and start networking, life hits you fast! [/quote] I’m afraid it’s a bit more serious than that. Most of us are very specialized and even though there is always some movement in and out of private industry, there are not going to be hundreds/thousands of openings all at once. And certainly not all in DC. If I lost my job I have no ilusiones - my salary would be significantly reduced and I’d probably end up getting a law school friend to help me get hired doing doc review at their firm. Would not be pretty. [/quote] I agree. I know many people in the federal government at the forward edge of their fields, doing things that only the government has the means to fund. [/quote]
