I thought that this would get some comment on SC.

It sounds to me like it was the "mentor" who was out of line. The bigger the bureaucracy, the more spectacular the fuck up. But they never admit that they fucked up.

Are you trying to tell me that there are incompetent managers on the federal payroll???

I thought all government workers were the creme de le creme that worked for less pay than the private sector because they were selfless individuals.

Yes. You're right. And they want you to invest a lot of money in a developement project that's 20 East of Daytona Beach. Just send me the cash and I'll see that they get it.

Do you actually know *anyone* personally who works for the federal government?

It doesn't surprise me at all. Discrimination against Wiccans, Santaria practitioners and atheists is commonplace in North American society. It is condoned in almost all areas. About twenty years ago the supposedly progressive NDP (socialist) party in BC removed a candidate after it was learned he was a Wiccan.

Again, religious freedom taken to the extreme. "You'll have religious freedom as long as you believe what I believe" Can't we all just believe what we want w/o denying others the same?

And for the record, I'm atheist. I don't believe in a "Supreme Being" of any sort. But you are free to believe in whichever robed, turbaned, naked, horned, furred diety you choose to.

I believe in the "Golden Rule" Threat others as you would have them treat you. AKA, fuck with me, I'll fuck with you.

I was a federal contractor for a long time. Federal employees were no different from the non-federal employees I worked with (including when I was entirely in the private sector). Some good, some bad, most wanted to do a good job.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

I don't disagree, I worked for DOD for a little while before going back to college. There was some great managers, and some really chitty ones. Same here in corporate amerika.
