Greetings everyone! I’m new here so just wanted to say hello. I’m also curious if any of you happen to work in the public sector? I fall into a very strange demographic since I’m a Libertarian but I work in the public sector (the United Nations). I know, I know, ironic right?? Although, you could de…

Well i work for a bank. small one so not really public but do deal with a lot of federal regulations that its pretty damn close.

I was doing freelance website development, until I was hired by an agricultue organization which manages sheep. One of their programs is the manditory RFID tagging of all sheep by the end of 2012… go figure. I don’t even eat meat. I’m taking the position because its more money for less work then wha…

I would think of working for the government (even as a soldier or police officer where you directly aggress against innocents) in th…

I mainly teach is basic Maths which the kids turn up for because they get paid to do so (around $40 a week which alledgely helps kids from poor backgrounds afford the bus in to college etc when in fact it mostly goes on cell p…

That’s cool - I was homeschooled so I have an abiding interest in education. I’ve been thinking that we should really return to a classical “core” education, consisting of logic, (Euclidean) geometry, classical literature and history, rhetoric, and so on. Too much of modern education is “clever” in…

Any of you work in the public sector?
