I've been working in the 'Public Sector' for about 5 years after being the 'Private Sector' or real world for all of my working life prior to that. Everything anybody has ever said to you about the way the public sector works was wrong - it is far, far worse than anybody who hasn't worked there could possibly imagine.
The great positive is that I only have a couple of years to go until retirement!
