Weird, my impression was federal employment is the opposite: mess up as much as you want and you’ll be retrained and reassigned.
Or a that only in contexts like harassment or drug use?
- metacritic12 4y agoYou're right, my "mess up once, get fired", I really mean if a flight crashes and the FAA could have done something, they'll get political flak. High level political appointees may need to resign. Whereas if an agency does nothing for a term, the political leaders get to stay. For routine FTEs, as a sibling post mentioned, you can probably mess up in a lot of ways (short of murder or being really non-PC) and still keep your job.
