Nahh. . .and it's good job creation.  They have a facilities management supervisor spot for $187K that looks comfy.

And, since it's government, you don't have to worry about being fired, unless you kill someone.

Well, even then I'm sure they will suspend you with pay pending the outcome of your trial in three years.

I can see someone doesn't understand the concept of a range. Or he does and is taking a page from Fox's playbook on how to present information accurately.

Also, at least for the job I'd be mostly qualified for, the salary seems perfectly normal. A little high for Tulsa, but about right or even a little low for DC. People with strong virtualization experience don't come cheap. Throw in the VoIP and DBMS administration and it's no wonder why the salary is so high. In most large orgs that would be three separate people each making around $100k.

Shoot, think how much salary is being saved by all the appts being blocked by GOP congress.  More than enough to pay for these guys.

I should note that I meant the salary seems high for the purported job title, not that it seems high relative to the specified duties.

Except that you probably get to hire five flunkies when you convince them that one person's work should be shared over five people.
