I’m a school teacher and my father was a postal worker. There is a grain of truth to the stereotypes. Most civil service jobs require a test. Jobs like teachers require a college degree and license. If you get the highest score, you get the job. If person who is antisocial gets a high score on a civil service exam, he/she can get a job in customer service. Government jobs also offer strong job security. You cannot be fired easily. This is supposed to ensure you got the job because you’re qualified, not because of your uncle’s influence. Strong job security makes sure you can do your job without being influenced by others. Does this system protect boneheads who are lazy and incompetent? Yes. I’ve met a couple of bad teachers who could not be fired because of tenure. All the principal could do was assign something outside the classroom. My father also has similar stories.

Most government workers strive to do a good job, but you know the saying about one bad apple.
