Don't do it. The pay sucks compared to private sector, and promotions and raises are based on time in service and not your actual work. 🙄. If you're interested in that kind of work, go work for a defense contractor. With the right one, you'll make way more money and still work the same hours.

I worked for the state of CA and the real money is in the OPEB. Put your time in and they will make sure u can retire early with good benefits. You wont be rich but you will be more financially set for retirement than most of the population.

My manager has lost confidence in me. On occasions when there’s been a problem he overreacts and blames me instead of guiding me. He has sent messages where he overreacts and says mean things, but then on calls he is nice and says it’s not my fault… I have lost self-confidence and get anxious on sundays thinking about the week ahead… Should I just quit or do you think it’s something that can be resolved? he might be thinking about terminating me since he’s been taking away my direct reports
