Comments:
I am a Disabled Veteran and it took me 8 years to get hired as a Permanent Civil Service employee. I went from Temporary to term and then finally permanent. The reason is that I did not know anyone in the stystem. It is too much of a buddy buddy sytem in the civil Service. I see Majors, Col, Gen, and Higher Ncoic's creating job positions for them self. Then when it is time for them to retire they can slide right into that position that they created for themselves as permanent Civil Service position, but yet the hardworking individuals can't get hired even if they have the 10 point veteran's preferance. This system will make it very easy to get rid of an individual weather he is a hard worker or a lazy worker, obviously we want the lazy ones gone, but this will not work as the buddy buddy sytem will just get worse. If the boss has a family member that needs a job they can get rid of the good workers and bring in their own family members. This is fine in the real world as many businesses are family run, but the government is not ran by any one family.
