[quote=AN][quote=bearishgurl][quote=AN][quote=bearishgurl]Those people work for the government (federal not city or state):-D.[/quote]
They must have gotten several promotions since 2000 :=P[/quote]
Their work is secret, so I have no idea what they do. All I know is they get inflation adjusted raise of 2-3% a year. Then there’s raises due to performance and possible promotion.[/quote]
Federal workers who’ve seen this kind of increase are very likely to see steep cuts in the coming 10 years. IMHO, the public sector (at all levels) leads the next leg down.
