I'm definitely not jealous of anything that a Federal or State employee has, except the long, paid vacations and all the paid holidays.

We are not making a blanket statement that all Federal employees have the "entitled" mindset. Furthermore, I have worked at State, Federal and City jobs over my career. I know what goes on, so I'm not clueless. I may also have abused the system when I was younger.

Based on experience and an inside view, I am like many others and we are not clueless. This is more liberal trash-talking that allows us to not have an open discussion of the realities of this sour situation.
