Well if you are a cs you would be better off to stay where you work. The
bank would make you account for your actions. As a cs you never have to
account for the money you claim to have earned providing service people
neither want nor need the service. 

If you squander the money, more magically appears in you departmental
budget and with all the new money you pay from your income tax you can
never run out. Why with all the contribution the cs's make by paying in
new money as tax I cannot imagine why the private sector should ever
need be tax. 

I haven't heard of anyone asking the civil service to count the mice in
the swamps around Fort Nelson, B.C. however it has  been done. I do know
the outcome of this survey has affected me greatly. I believe the plan
is that for every grey mouse an owl eats it has to replace it with two
white mice.

Yes sir we sure are lucky to have the civil service. I think the next
project plannned in that area is to check the snowflakes. This will be
required for Stats Can to estimate how many mosquitos will hatch next
year.



Excuse my spelling and grammar. 
I was instructed by civil servants :-)
