While that is good for some people, I also at the same time believe that is one of the biggest things wrong with our country these days. I had a summer hire position in a govt engineering job and there are some people who are so worthless it's frightening, and they will never be fired.

Usually if you are good at what you do, don't cause problems and get your shit done then you dont have to worry about being fired.


It's the asswipes who suck at their job, constantly complain and irritate management that need the security of not being fired.

no doubt... I don't agree with it... just saying it's a perk for being in that position. I've worked with 10-15 GS civilians... 3 or 4 were worthless... but they couldn't be fired unless they basically didn't show up for work or did something illegal. fucking sucked. but from the civilians standpoint... gotta be nice to know they can't just can you because they want their friend hired (something they try a lot especially with spouses on base)

I know you weren't siding with laziness... it's def a perk... just unfortunately in practice it has turned out to be not a good thing IMO

it all depends on the view... but yeah from where I sit daily... not a great thing...

nice thing about work'n on base is you can usually work a "flex" schedule... so you work 9hrs a day and get every other friday off... so every other weekend is a short one. wish I could do that...
