Au contraire - the government DOES fire people. It's called RIF (reduction in force) and I know several people now employed otherwise who used to work for the government.
Oddly enough, many of them think it was the best thing that happened to them. Isn't that interesting?

I've heard of RIFs. Very rare.

Not surprising, I became suddenly 'unemployed' in '94. I've done very well since and it was a good thing it happened. Kind of like my divorce.
