I worked for government for few years. Not sure how I sneaked past HR but I was better prepared for the job Interview because I actually read the 500 page document that they spend lots of time publishing annually.

Anyways, I often wrote my own code to process large batches of PDFs or do related tasks. For example say I have thousands of PDFs and I need to black out social security numbers or names or account numbers. The government used to pay some dumb woman to Individually open every file and edit it. This is hundreds of man hours. Since the criteria was located on the same region of every pdf, I wrote a code to add black box to same region of every pdf file and do hundreds of hours of manual work in less than 60 minutes.

Well they wouldn't let me run scripts

So I had to go to IT department and there were two Indians and all they knew was Python.

Also that government agency required masks and poison shots. So despite me being the most skilled and most technically advanced among a bunch of cucks and fat unmarried childless women, I was the one terminated. They terminated the most productive employee with good employee history, reviews, no prior disciplinary problems. Government is stupid and productivity does not matter.

The unskilled dumb women work 40 year careers at these government agencies because they simply just do what they are told, never innovate, never introduce new procedures, milk the clock to browse Democrat websites or Facebook or shop scAmazon

I'm sorry for your experience.

I worked for the government in IT on a similar project dealing with automatic document creation that cost 80 people their jobs.

Most public servants are generally disgusting.

I'd see dozens of the start lining up at their time-clocks at 4:45pm, waiting for 5:00 to strike so they can clock-out without working a second too much. I was sad to see adults behave like that.

It's like this even in the red Republican districts. Walk in and audit a government office any day of the weak. Half are out sick or on vacation leave because they literally get 2-3 months sick leave and vacation time each year. The other half are not doing productive, efficient work. If there's something to do they do it the most slow, labor intensive, costly way possible to maximize overtime and staffing. Department heads are incentivized to increase budget not cut it.

Yup, because if Dep Heads don't waste all of their allocated money, they'll get less next year.

I created a Tea and Coffee Club when I was a young public servant. For $2 a week, I'd keep simple tea and coffee and sugar supplies in the kitchen.

We had about 20 members in the Club. Within a month, nobody continues paying but everyone kept consuming. I cancelled that initiative within two months after only three names remained on the list, but when I returned to the floor with a plastic grocery bag containing four cartons of milk, 50 public servants stood with their mugs in hand.

I loaded the fridge and waited in the kitchen for five minutes. None of the public servants entered because they were all mingling outside, waiting for me to leave so they could steal the milk.

There's something seriously wrong with public servants.

Filthy fucking monsters.

Government produces the worst quality human beings, simple as that. They think they're top shit, the smartest and best in their field. But they're adult children running circles in adult daycare. Nothing productive at all

You were sad to see adults refusing to do unpaid work?

Just like when I worked software QA for the largest healthcare provider in the region, which is also a prominent research hospital where several procedures were performed for the first time ever.
