actually, as a slave laborer for the public sector, i actually dont think me and my co-workers are underpaid or underappreciated. (collective GASP!) the problem is that all public entities, have a different work ethic. chime in all you others that work for the gov. there is about 40% of the staff busting their A$$es everyday. (please refer to my nightshift thread) and the rest of us are a bunch of lazy mothereffers! i have some people in my office that dont do crap. daytraders, doing side jobs, etc. and if there was a layoff, and up until a few weeks ago, there was one, it would be the newest labor let go. not the lamest. go pay your property taxes in person at the tax office and you will see this firsthand (or the DMV). so the way i see it, the low pay is created by this cancerous group of bastards making us all look bad. personally i can deal with my low pay. give me a raise, and all of us HAVE to get one too. i am just trying to learn something so i can bail. see ya.

oh yea, in my mind, the football player turned war hero? he is the same hero as the rest of the soldiers giving it up for our president orders. it is just that his is the more obvious "poor career choice".
