WestVirginiaRebel Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Sunshine State News:It's long been said that Washington, D.C., is recession proof. It certainly has the robust federal employment listings to prove it.Impervious to shifting political winds, the big government job machine just keeps lumbering along.A survey by The Daily Caller found more than 1,000 federal openings this month alone in the D.C. area. "These include a 'student internship' program at the Federal Housing Finance Agency that pays the equivalent of $48,304 a year; a $155,000-a-year gig at the Peace Corps to ensure the agency is complying with Equal Opportunity Employment standards; and a similar job at the Dept. of Transportation that promises nearly $180,000 a year," The Caller reported.And it gets sillier."The Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs needs someone to run the Facebook page for the Dept. of the Interior and they’ll pay up to $115,000 a year. Over at the Dept. of Defense, they’ll drop nearly 50k a year for a new mail room clerk, plus the glorious benefits that comes with government work."________Laziness is good work if you can get it...
