WG employees don’t Have the option of flex time. Which means you can come to work when you feel like it, take long lunch, and go home early, cause GS employees account for their own time keeping. where WG employees are controlled by WS or GS employees that are time keeper DONE to MINUTE. So please don say ALL government employees don’t earn their wage cause some do.

I agree that some Government employees earn their wage. But, I am very familiar with WG Federal employees. Most of the ones I worked with were overpaid and underworked. They made way more money and had way more benefits than comparable workers in the private sector. As an Inspector General, I remember conducting a focus discussion with a group of WG employees in West Virginia, where the WG employees made more than twice the income of the local blue collar workers. They spent over an hour telling me about all the problems they had with their jobs. After that, I asked them, if the job is so bad, why don't you just quit and get another job. I will never forget the one worker who stood up and said to me, "this is the best paying lousy job that I have ever had". There was no chance they were going to leave their Government jobs to work for a contractor in West Virginia for half the pay and no benefits.
