    Millions of government employees work hard every day on so much shit you’ll never see or understand that does in fact make your life so much nicer than you deserve when you complain about government workers.

    And I’m NOT talking about the cultic worshipped military. I’m talking civilian civil servants at all levels of government.

    SOME people are really gonna wonder why everything’s getting shittier and never make the connection that their idiotic notions about government led to it.

      I have some gov contracts and I can confirm this.

      Also: the big complaint about working with gov is either apparently expensive stuff and/or apparently slow progress .

      Reality? We as citizens require a crazy amount of justified checking and validation from every part of gov because it affects people’s lives that things take longer and cost more to do right … and many times that to back out a fuck up and not kill anyone. (Oh Hi Elon)

        I see people who openly complain about government workers as no different than those shitheads who are willing to mistreat food service workers.

        And it isn’t different in the private sector. Except that there is less controls usually.
