Hey “federal employee”, you are not entitled to a job. I don’t care what you’ve been led to believe...and you’re about to see what the rest of the private sector employees have to contend with.

Reality sucks, no one, not even state/federal employees should be exempt from going through what millions of others are.

You [state/federal employees] are NOT SPECIAL!

Shut it down. This crap has got to stop.

PLEASE... PLEASE... STOP THIS NONSENSE! Its not essential, non-essential (that is sooooo 1995ish). Its excepted, not excepted!!! Comprende?? Bueno.

This post is an excellent illustration of why one of the primary tactics used by the Democrats in their effort to turn America into a Euro-style socialist welfare state is to get everybody unionized and working, in one way or another, for the government. They admire the way the entire nation of France can "go on strike" when the primary employer, the French government, threatens tyrannical "sweatshop" measures such as increasing the "work week" from 35 to 38 hours, or increasing the retirement age from 52 to 55, etc.

The more parasites there are knocking each other over at the public trough, the better it is for the Democrats.
No offense...
