[quote=Anonymous]I am on my third federal job, and this is the first one that hasn't yet burned me out. The first two had me routinely working 60-80 hour workweeks. I'm finally working only 40-hour weeks, with occasional periods that are busier. I certainly don't have time to be goofing around, as I'd need to work nights or weekends if I did. Truthfully, if I had to do it all over again knowing what I now know, I would have stayed in the private sector (where I was before I joined the government). I thought the government would have better work (which it has) and better work-life balance (not true until my current role). I do now like my current role, but if this doesn't work out, I will definitely move back to the private sector. Thankfully, my skills are transferable and I get lots of headhunter inquiries.[/quote]
