— The top 5 reasons to reject a job offer Don’t make a mistake and accept a job offer you’ll regret – here’s what to look out for. – Dawn Brotherton (DIERSEN: I knew that I would not “fit in” at the Post Office, IRS, and GAO a) because I have always been a conservative Republican, b) because I was a draft avoider, c) because I opposed patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and d) because my other demographics (White, male, Missouri Synod Lutheran, 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, American-nameplate car owner, etc.) were terrible. Nevertheless, I accepted job offers from the Post Office, IRS, and GAO because I erroneously counted on “civil service protections” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_federal_civil_service) to protect me. Further, the main reason why I accepted the Post Office’s job offer in 1966 was that I needed money to pay for college expenses. Further, the main reason why I accepted IRS’s job offer in 1971 was that I was unemployed and I needed money to help support my mother and brother. Further, the main reason why I accepted GAO’s job offer in 1980 was that my Democrat IRS superiors had made it very clear that they were going to get rid of me.)
