If the “High-level” worker does not accept the “reality” of the situation, he has the option of seeking other employment in the private sector.

However, former “high-level” apparatchiks from the civil service are generally unhappy in the world of profit and loss where you have to justify your job by really working to help the enterprise realize said profits.

In the cold world of the private sector, “High-Level” government workers find deadlines and budgets to be too “stressful and constraining”. They therefore tend to be VERY unhappy and flee the madness as soon as a “real” job back in government can be had.

Once back in the warm and safe womb of guaranteed pay and benefits the “High-Level” worker will ALWAYS return to a happier state of mind. Unless..... A project with a time line that us just too demanding presented to him. But, that’s OK, the “High-level” worker knows that, unlike the private sector, government deadlines are “very flexible”, so he doen’t stress out like he did in that terrible “company” job. (SARC)

You pretty well covered it, except you left out the 100% paid for beenies, the months vacation and the month off for holidays and the 100% retirement at the ripe old age of 45 are whenever that 20 twenty five year term rolls. And in fornia where they work as much over time as possible since the last Years gross is the figure for retirement.
