You know how you've got this job, and maybe it's a pretty good job, but you understand that you will only have the job so long as your company remains in business and performs well enough that it can afford you? Well, if you work for the federal government, no . . . you have no idea about that. Because it has long been the life of a federal employee not to have to worry about it. Your employer could be falling more than $1 trillion short of the revenue it needs to operate, and for you - no worries! Raises continue. Promotions continue. Benefits remain.
