Re: F the federal government
more and more civilians are taking over the military each day. IMO, your retarded to retire in the military.....if your worrked about your money.
Compare the pay charts of a 20y GS-12 to a 20y E-7 in the military. (your average retiree)
E-7 at 20 years military, $43,000/ year
GS-12 entry level, no additional income (add-ons for certs, etc) $63,000/yr
GS is also entitled to sick leave, etc. etc. also take into account that you wont be a entry level GS12. $63k for a GS12 is pretty good...
=======================================
Heres my military paygrade:
E-5 6 years $27,000 a year, before entitlements
GS-5 1 year of service, $34,000 before entitlements
I cant wait to be a GS worker. :P
