I contract out through the Federal Government, and because of their union regulations, any company that contracts with them, must pay an equitable rate to what their Government workers make. I can tell you, for my job, their is no where in my geographic area that pays nearly what I make.

I am not trying to call you out, because I have no idea what you do, and I am sure you are worth every penny you make. But from my experience (I get to physically see the quality of work that my Government counterparts do), they are no where near as qualified as the people in my company. I don't mean to brag, but I must maintain at least a 95% perfection rate, or I could lose my job, and from the completed work that I see, from their end, if they reach a 45% correct rate it would be amazing.

No doubt you are not delivering mail. 95%? ROTFLMAO. If USPS only made 95% people would be shooting letter carriers in the streets.

We have contract employees, they are about the same as Feds. Some are worth their pay, some are not.
