Just like the risk of a losing hand for a gambler, or a market crash for a broker, one of the hazards of a public-sector job is that you live and die by the budget. The perqs are there to make up for it; as a private-sector worker, I had nothing like the retirement plans, healthcare options, and seniority promotions that public workers get.

Damn. Sorry about that. It is such a shame that life gives you choices and you seem to make the wrong ones. Was it that you could not get hired with the federal government? Sorry about that.
