Former Fed Employee here. FORMER for a reason. The fraud and waste I witnessed was too much. I walked away from $98K Yr in the south (lower cost of living) because I just couldn't stomach being a part of that shit anymore. We could reduce the DoD Civil Service by 30% and we would barely notice. Some folks may not like that but it is a fact. A few other 3 letters I have exposure to are complete trash. EPA - massive fraud, waste, abuse. DoEdu - Massive waste of money (single most useless govt agency). VA - owned by Medical Industry (grifts go on there that would bend ur brain in half ie - doc sends referral for specialists. VA only allows pre-contracted specialists. Why? Golf outings, Season Tickets, Brother in law needs a new job got any cushy office jobs?
