[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The lack of knowledge of the day-to-day work of a federal worker is pretty obvious, here.  The fed-bashing of the jealous are, sadly, not surprising.

I work hard at my job and at all hours (often through lunch at in the evenings; over the holidays).  The 9-5 gig is no longer present in any fed job I've had.  I get no overtime.  None.

I've put in my years (almost 15) when others couldn't be bothered with the salary I drew (now those big firm lawyers are trying to come to the fed side in droves - I know, I've interviewed them).  So, yeah, when I receive my retirement (FERS, not the more generous CSRS) I'm going to take it gleefully.  And, if I can use my contacts for something else, you best believe I will do it and without apology.

You can call me whatever you want.  I made a smart choice.  And am not apologizing for it.[/quote]

[b]PP, salaried employees outside the government don't typically get overtime either.[/b][/quote]

Exactly.  So back at ya, smartass - you obviously lack knowledge of the day-to-day work of a private sector employee.  THAT'S pretty obvious to me.  Good luck on the second career, honey - you'll be in for a shock![/quote]
