Good choice.  Economics is such a worthless subject.
The drawback to marital longevity is your wife always knows when you're really interested in her and when you're just trying to bury it.

lol....it actually was interesting enough for me to learn quite a few things...but I just didn't care too much...and of course my dumbass is going to pay for it.

If you manage to make it through college learning your social security number and not having a major drug habit you've succeeded.

Quotei mean its the best job ive ever had...but i wouldnt say its fun...i have never once in seven years woke up and didnt wanna go to work...cant really ask for much more than that in a job...

benefits are insane....i am currently trying to figure how to take seven days of use or lose before the end of the year and i have another 240 hrs of leave on top of that....i get every other monday off and four day weekends every holiday that falls on a mon or fri....and the pay is insane for the low amount of work and more importantly the completely stress free job

i tell everyone this do everything and anything you can to get a govt job...hell ive told sd at a few tailgates

i would love to one time try some real chicken fried steak...ive had it before but i feel like ive never had the real thing

Damn...i'm jealous. I wish I would have known about that before taking this gig down here. The pay is great but time off is hard to come by. And its stressful trying to hit numbers every month in this economy.

I will reply more but something is wrong with this website/computer. You seeing it too? It says simple machines at the tiop of the page and when I type I can't read anything...hopefully this comes through....

I'm a little embarrassed to report that I have started the process of studying for the LSATs with the single-minded purpose of working for the government. This plan dictates that I am going to spend well in excess of $100,000 and lose three+ years of gainful employment to earn less than I could in private practice but get lots of days off and benefits. Priorities.

I assume you've stockpiled booze in preparation. In storage somewhere, not your liver.

I keep trying to stockpile booze and the booze keeps sneaking into my face.

Further adding to my embarrassment, by the way, is the fact that the National Labor Relations Board is one of the places that I would love to work when I'm out. IGY and I will be work friends and shtein. I can't wait for the summer outings and office happy hours.

Good luck with that, I'm gonna work for the VA. I filled out an application for some summer internship night job and they've called me twice since to offer me other positions. When all is said and done I'll be starting out as a GS 7 and working my way up from there. Most likely I'll be handling veteran's disability claims. yeah me.

What kind of a douchebag loser works for the government?

Losers.

there are a lot of earnest, hard working, intelligent people in government.  it's popular to say otherwise, but it's true.  if we didn't have smart people in government acting as foils to the all the goddamn idiots, you'd be amazed what kind of farg up we'd be looking at instead of this one.
