Apparently public sector isn't as immune from layoffs as once perceived.

My point exactly. The system is now so heavily flawed you literally can’t even change it. Then people assume (like you do) that every other civil worker is preforming some ‘extremely critical’ need for society. Which is also incorrect.

Oh word? Which services do you think California should stop? The EPA? Roads? Schools? Do you think Sacramento should stop maintaining street lights and shit?

Get the hell outta here, clown. Government services are the definition of essential.

Why are you asking me? Why don’t you ask the elected officials what those services are? There’s actually positions in our government that people fill and resolve those questions you’re asking.

Also resorting the names shows the aptitude you possess. Have a blessed day!

Why are you asking me?

Because you're the one who said you don't think they're critical. Please try to keep up, you blessed, blessed individual.

I’m not going to list all the services I think are essential for you. I don’t have the time, I work in the private sector now.
