 When I worked in local government IT, there were younger people who
 started working there looking for job security. They were still
 there, 30 years later.

 We half-joked that some of the people working there started working
 before their manager was born. Half-joking, because it was true.

 It takes a certain mentality to work in a job like that for so long,
 keep your head down, do everything you can do not stand out, do the
 same thing day after day, take a union-mandated raise every once in a
 while, and retire with a pension.

 That ain't me.
