Database - hijacked to gov't salary discussion

[Sijray21]

Upon seeing that chart the payrates for statisticians might have been a decent amount better :oops: . I dont have what he gave me on hand, but I seem to remember it saying w/in four years assuming a step up in GS level almost every year which isnt hard, your making somewhere in the area of 60-65 thousand a year

exactly, which isn't bad at all. I enjoyed my time with the gov't, i hope you enjoy yours as well. One thing i like about it is how they push for higher education and they'll fund it as well. Go for an MBA and they'll fund it with a contract that you have to work for them for an additional number of years. I'm kind of attracted to that. Most of the jobs on USAjobs.gov have that minimum 3.5 or 3.2 (which luckily i can make thanks to last semester). Kinda limits options....wish i tried a little harder for my sophomore and junior semesters.

4 years to make 60-65 isnt too bad...... and the stability/benefits/laziness of a gov't job

i know! plus you work 8 hours a day and the job security
