I know it sounds harsh because things shouldn't always be money, but the GS system simply takes out too much. I'm not going to reveal my salary, but if I worked on the outside, I would be getting 500 dollars more with each paycheck.

I know people might laugh and call me selfish or dumb, but in this economy, I could use that money towards a bunch of things.

Any advice ? Has anyone left ? What was your experience after leaving out of the government system ?

It's just hard cause I really enjoy my job

Every employee has a flaw because no human is perfect. Even your strongest employee has a weakness. My weakness is being on time. What makes it worst it's usually just a few minutes. I know I probably sound like a trash employee, but I'm taking accountability. That is my flaw.

Long story short, I thought I was doing better of being on time, and I was proud of myself but come to find out. My supervisor still considers me late at 7:37. I thought once you're in your place of duty, you aren't considered late.

According to my supervisor, you are late if you are not logged into the computer and at your place of duty no later than 7:37

So....??? Does that sound correct.
