You just made an argument about government based on a comparison with the private sector, and now you're agreeing that government and the private secctor have fundamentally different goals. Got to admit, I'm a bit lost.
- fastball 2y agoThe argument wasn't based on a comparison to the private sector. The argument is based on the fact that I prefer people who passionate about their jobs vs people who just want a stable paycheck. However the argument also applies to the private sector, which is why I mentioned it.
- mulmen 2y agoHave you considered that government employees accept less pay because they are passionate?
- fastball 2y agoSo this begs the question why we need "stable employment" as a hallmark of the government sector in order to attract talent.

- johnnyanmac 2y agoLet's flip the script. How have young people felt about the private sector as their entry level jobs have focused more around a turnover based culture than ever? Do you feel Gen Z is passionate about work or even about trying to maximize their compensation? Do they seem happy or even tolerant of a 9-5 to (not) make ends meet? What makes you think applying these practices to the public sector will work for the better?
