And every once in a while I see listings for jobs with the Federal government. I generally say HELL NO. To get me to work for the Federal Government now you would have to pay me enough that I could pay off every last cent on Earth that I owe anyone and enable me to retire in five years. And it would have to be my absolute dream job too.

I don't want to work for a Federal Government where Herr Orange is my ultimate boss and I would have to check my brain, my dignity, my self respect, and self worth at the door.

It would be different if we had a Democratic President or even a halfway reasonable Republican. Hell, for someone like President Obama I would have taken a pay cut to work for that man.
