I actually had a coworker who used to work as a federal employee but quit for this exact reason. She was raised with good work ethic and was told that her efficiency and work ethic was making her manager and fellow employees look bad and she needed to stop being so proactive and efficient at her job. She said it was against her moral character to be slow, lazy, and complete substandard work. She quit and started working in the private sector and was a rock star employee and an amazing friend.

Standard work year is 2080 hours, the family leave is limited to 12 weeks (480 hours), Annual Leave is capped at 240 hours, and federal holidays account for 88 hours. That means the person would have had to accrued 1272 hours of sick leave at 4 hours every 2 weeks AND gotten it approved from their agency. That's over 11 years of sick leave accumulated assuming they didn't use any that entire time.

Just know that you might be getting 5% more than last year, but it is not a raise. You'll actually be taking a pay cut. Until people stop associating cost of living adjustments (that don't even keep up with the cost of living) with raises, we will all continue to get screwed. A raise is only an amount that actually increases your spending power, not helps you play catch up to where you used to be already. It's better than nothing, but it is NOT a raise.

You apparently worked in a different department than I do. GS scale is max 5 weeks after 15 years of service. Sick leave is half of that. The retirement/pension is okay but you still need to augment it somehow to really make it worthwhile. The true advantage is having insurance to the day you die at the same or near the same cost as when you were working.

As a retired DoD civilian, my own experience was that the job provided tremendous opportunities to have a wide-ranging impact, if you were willing to do the work. Yes, we certainly had some deadbeats, but they were very much in the minority. On the whole, we had good employees willing to do what was asked of them. Not necessarily more than that, but they consistently met management's expectations. When I was a graduate teaching assistant, roughly 78% of my students were C-level, 15% B-level, and 5% were A-level; the remaining 2% were D- or F-level. My experience in the federal government mirrored that level of effort and achievement. I suspect most work places have a similar level of employee performance.

"Lots of good people"? No, that cannot be the case. First, most "good people" will not be satisfied working for a corrupt institution; once they realize it, they will quickly leave. Second, in a corrupt institution, only a small percentage of "good people" will successfully resist the temptation; the majority will, sooner or later, become corrupt (usually sooner).

I am in my 50's from WashDC suburbs and back in high school in the 1980's the people who went into FED jobs were considered non ambitious and just going for a cushy but lower paying job with great benefits. But time marches on and the automatic raises/pay grades never stopped and they ended up making 6 figures eventually for average skilled jobs. Now most of those people have great retirements and retired/retiring in their mid to late 50's. Nearly all of them tell about being bored at times and nothing to do and being frustrated with the bureaucracy. During covid most sat at home collecting full pay and doing nothing. All of them have no concept of the real world and would not last in a real job.

While the song is great, Remy's facial expressions in the video really make it perfect for me. The way he cries when the fudge round supplier won't take Apple pay and when he has to go back in on Tuesday is great.

I fully agree with all the below comments. As a retired fed employee, every time there was a manpower study, my office ALWAYS came up with the same amount of working taking twice as long. During one of these studies, I told the folks (fresh out of college Gen Zers with no federal background) assigned to doing the study "THIS OFFICE CAN DO THE JOB WITH HALF THE PEOPLE!". Did that work, NOPE, it went over their heads and more people got hired. So I went out at 62 to leave the nonsense behind. Feel a lot happier.

Lifetime health care (not free! but post tax dollars) and defined benefit plans with COLA was worth it for me. Went from over $100k to $33k when I started in the Fed. Ended at $81k. Early full retirement at 55. Taking SS early in a couple of years too.

It's crazy how accurate this is. We had a guy who came in an hour late everyday and then just disappear. A 2nd who would come in and sleep all day and only wake up for breaks/lunch, he got caught sleeping by the CO and was written up for not wearing an ESD wrist strap at his soldering bench, not for sleeping.. Then the Union Steward who did nothing except read books and magazines that he got from the base library. That's 3 guys in a shop of 12.
