Government job demand and the economy have a negative correlation. During high stress economic times more people want gov jobs. The crash is coming soon. The smart are bailing out of high stress private sector jobs and into cushy government ones.
Happens every upturn. Government employees leave for more lucrative, but less secure, private jobs. And this time, older government employees are retiring in large numbers. So, even though government jobs are traditionally hard to land, your chances may be the best in many years.
The entry level ones I've seen with the state I'm in right now seem to pay rather low compared to say, CA.
But with my mind heavy on breaking away from my current line of work, I'm more or less looking at getting onto either a public safety dispatch position, or an entry level road maintenance crew to gain some experience for further opportunities down the road.
Not to mention the schedules would obviously be a lot nicer than what I've been handling for the past, ten years.

Your brain will turn to mush and you will be unemployable once you are let go when the budgets are slashed. Govt jobs are no more secure than the private sector.

Plus, government jobs suck. They're for lazy, useless people who can't cut it in competitive environments.
