Cleared employees are highly sought after. Some days I think I should quit and get rehired with bonuses because of my TS/SCI.

I hear you. I would view like this, never stay anywhere long enough to loose contact with the leading edge of technology. Do not put yourself in the position where after 15 years on a contract it is up for re-bid and you loose out and do not get picked up by the winner. Then that TS is no longer any good to you, you've been read out. Along with that little bonus is the fact that your experience is outdated, which is why the incumbent didn't win the re-bid in the first place and your skills are old. If you don't move around a bit and stay current on the latest and greatest, you will soon find yourself out of a job. Unless of course you are a stress or structural loads engineer, then you can write your own ticket :) Clearance or no clearance!

Yeah, if you can stand the cr@p you have to put up with when you work for a DOD contractor. I sure got sick of it.
