I notice that few fedgov employees take on risks that they can dump off to contractors. And there you are -- hold the CONTRACTORS responsible! Ever see a fellow sinecure holder held to account? Like losing a fedgov only gym privilege for a week or two, at least? You want to bang him and everyone working with him, yet what fedgov section has ever been banged? You're quite the gent.
If YOU don’t like working for federal employees as a private contractor, then find something else to do. I don’t care. My Monday was spent handholding a contractor, who, although a retired commander, was afraid to take the leadership role and it impacted our progress greatly. Another contractor provided DHS with the wrong specifications to cite on another project, meaning she has to now take time to do a contract mod = more time = more money to the taxpayer. So sorry you don’t think we’re doing OUR job.
I also have no idea what you mean by this: “And there you are — hold the CONTRACTORS responsible! Ever see a fellow sinecure holder held to account? Like losing a fedgov only gym privilege for a week or two, at least? You want to bang him and everyone working with him, yet what fedgov section has ever been banged? You’re quite the gent.”
It’s a poorly written sentence, so if you were writing a proposal, I would not be able to evaluate this, as I have no idea what it means. Why are you talking about gyms? I go to a female only gym and not in DC.
Yes Contracting Officers can go to jail for signing a contract that is not sufficiently funded. As far as I know they are the only job series that has the possibility of being financially responsible for their actions.
