    I mean im in the private sector and have been unemployed for six months now, however I have worked public sector and one reason I work private is the pay is significantly better and I actively save assuming I will be looking for work every couple of years. Publics appeal was primarily that it is more stable, less stressful with more days off and not working over 40 hours a week usually. It will be hard pressed finding individuals to take the pay usually offered if it also has serial unemployment, long work weeks, and little benefits. This means going forward it will be much more expensive for government to function.
