That is also not true, none of us have job security. With the draw down GS positions will become redundant. They may be offered other jobs in some cases requiring them to relocate. There is no such thing as job security anymore. I am DOD so I do not know,about the EPA or IRS. We plussed up to support the war so we will see cuts. By law the agency I work for has to offer me a comparable position, Our funding runs out in 12 months unless renewed. I will either take a pay cut or relocate, with a child in college I have to work, we are no different than anyone else, just a different career path.
BS
I know someone here who worked as a GS for NSA at Fort Meade who had a bad alcohol problem, just one of many problems. When many at NSA became contractors there he refused not wanting to give up his job security.
They tried to get him to quit as he he was nearly useless at ~ 75K per year but he knew better.
Finally he got arrested and lost his clearance and was fired after lots of taxpayer wasted $$$.
Those are not jobs. Jobs don't pay you when they cut back your time or furlough you. They don't pay you when you are useless
