Don't kid yourself, most of these people don't work.

that's why I said workday and not "at work."

I think I should have added quotes around workday

I have heard this tons of times in my life. A lot of people I know in the medical profession joke about this with regards to nursing at the VA in Baltimore. Granted, there is such a shortage of nursing, the VA example clearly has an additional factor. But it did broach the subject for me in general of why there is so much security in government jobs. Is this even true?

I think it's hard to fire government employees because they are so well-qualified, well-trained, and love what they do that it would be detrimental to the overall welfare of our country if we fired any single one of them.

And here I am about to leave the private sector and become a federal employee in April. Ah job security.
