Feds do not have to join unions. The can not have union health plans. Only union members get union plans. They get a menu to choose from.
The do not have to pay dues. They get regular benefits. Vacation - sick - holidays.
My understanding is, that they only get "fired" if they commit a crime. They can be transferred to another office.
Many have a 90 day probationary period. Pass the 90 days & your home for duration until you resign or they offer early retirement.
And you get health benefits that general public wish they could have.
Remember what the pols say - "do as we say, not as we do"!
Lets give all families in US, the same medical benefits that the feds get?
A good number of years ago I had a Federal Civil Service job. There was a payroll deduction for health care insurance. The deduction was not a back breaker but the coverage wasn't spectacular, either. Of course, Congressional and Executive coverages are generous and basically free.

It has long been an aphorism that if you get a Civil Service job you are set for life, especially at the Federal level.

Civil service employees can be fired, it takes due diligence but it can be done.
In some areas especially in data and communications, extremely competent
workers will take the trade off of higher salaries for a less demanding schedule
and job security.
Civil service jobs are less affected by the down turn of the economy
but there can be layoffs as a result as well.
18 yr olds men were supposed to register for the "draft". You were not eligible for fed employment if you did not register.
How is that working out? Who vets 18 yr old young men? Do women also have to register? If not, the entire fed work force
could have been all women. Then they would all have equal $$$$$!

My hope is President Trump will 'lay off' about 30% of the bureaucratic dead weight infesting the Federal Government with life time jobs.

I'd like to raise you by another 40%!
