As a friend of mine, also then a government employee, these are "people who can do no other work."
I am fresh out of crying towels.
I’ll bet many of the ‘loads’ in those ranks can see the writing on the wall..they are toast after November. The gravy train iss about to be derailed.
“The morale of federal managers and employees has been damaged significantly by the two-year pay freeze and perceived fed bashing by the public and members of Congress,...”
Perhaps they need to resign and find work that pays better. LOL
Picture of the worlds smallest violin needed!
Good, we need to dismantle about 90% of the Federal Government!
They decided to protest by staging a work slowdown....but nobody could tell the difference.
My business went from salary and bonus to commission. I’ve been living for 10 years never knowing what my next months income would be and if it would cover bills.
My pity meter failed to register for this story.
What a bunch of sniveling snot sucking public payroll patriots.
Welcome to the party!
It used to be that when people took government jobs, they expected to take it in the shorts on salary in exchange for dependable employment with excellent benefits and retirement. Not anymore, everyone wants to have their cake and eat it too.
What, you mean I can’t work for Satan himself and feel good about myself at the same time?
And doesn’t the “overrepresentation” of minorities working for the government constitute a “disparate impact” and isn’t it a sign of discriminatory hiring?
They have their own radio station?
I never heard of it - who the hell is paying for this outlet?
As I understand it, they - like most devoted public servants - get step increases every year on top of any so called "raises".
Cry me a river, hacks.
Welcome to the party, pal!”

Wah! That's a year shorter than my pay freeze, so I feel free to bash them.
I have the same respect for your average old government employee as i do for a bucket of pee.
government spending goes up by a trillion and they make it sound like its being cut to the bone
As the wife of a federal employee whose work is devoted to critical national security issues, I am disgusted at the hateful comments. And yes, given what is going on in DC his morale is pretty low but he still suits up and goes in everyday or gets on that airplane every week (many weekends) and does his best for this country and our family - in that order
1). If I knew my job was meaningless and a waste of tax payer money, I would have low moral, too.
2). I honestly don’t care about their moral. They are sucking the life blood out of our nation. They are paid higher than the average none government worker who actually generates the money to pay their extravagant salaries and benefits.
just the fact that there is an actual radio station in DC devoted entirely to Federal employees whining about their concerns tells you all you need to know.
