Len, you get step increases each year, grade increases when you improve skills or take on new responsibilities.

A typical receptionist might start at GS-5 and make GS-7 withing 2-3 years. About 12 years after starting, she'd make ~50k. If she wants to make substantially more than that, she'd have to do training, or apply for a job with more responsibilities.

A GS-15, for example, would have highly specialized skills, or be the manager to roughly 3-400 people.
