All NOVA is like that . Government leeches and selfish procurement types using YOUR MONEY. They couldn’t get a real job, so Government. Who did they know to get that free ride?

You’d take a good government job in a minute if you got offered one. It’s not available to you, so you denigrate it.

Too transparent.

actually I was not denigrating her, I was complimenting her. actually, without going into classified detail, by your standards I had a 'real job' for a number of years. it created publications and patents and awards. when I started my own company unca sam hired me to train them and be the SME on the subject at hand. I later joined to be the FTE SME. As such I meet people you are not allowed near. that aside, 'procurement types' I assume are actually in procurement? you do realize that by law they have to pay the price the private sector offers. who is the leech now?


Im going out on a limb and suggesting that you might need to learn more about the 'business' so to speak.

That just doesn't seem like a problem at all. I don't work for the federal government, and currently on the books I have:

53 Days of PTO
15 Days of Sick Leave
13 Paid Holidays

81 Total paid days off available (More than 44) but I'm not going to use them all in one year.
