看来，好多朋友对美国联邦政府的职务以及工资有些误解。
一美国政府分总统，国会，还有法院。
二这三个系统的职务，工资，权力，影响力大致相似，但不全相同。
三大多数联邦工作人员，是为总统上班，也就是说，总统是他们的最后的头儿，也是人们常常说的，联邦政府工作人员。
四美国总统联邦工作人员有任命，也有聘请。
五任命的比如，部长，副部长，以及这个级别的各大局长，这些人工资都不是太高，也就二十万美元左右。
六任命的还有类似这个级别的将军们，或是晋升的将军们，以及其他军人。
七军人们的工资相应高些，福利待遇就更高，大概在基本工资的百分之五十以上，也就是说，一个年薪水10万美元的军人，政府要承担15万美元与这个军人。
八聘请的通常分GS和SES级别，这个级别也可以到部长，副部长级别，工资也可以到二十几万美元。一般来说ＧＳ和ＳＥＳ的联邦员工的福利是工资的百分三十八左右。
九聘请的GS和SES员工的工资，职责，权力，尤其是影响力都有地域，或是单位，机关的差别，不能一概而论。
十聘请的到了GS11级，就已经相当高了，有的甚至，已经有管理的责任和职权，比如，一个GS11级的警察，有可能是警察小队长，一个GS13的，有可以是一个老兵医院的财政总管，仅次于院长和副院长，财政总管的职务，权力，责任是非常大的。
十一聘请的，不管是什么级别，一旦这个员工的职位头衔结尾有了ER，OR，或是CHIEF，LEAD这样的头衔了，这个员工就有一定的职责和权力，你必须得听从他的指令，在很多的情况下，比如，在一些特殊情况下，你要服从一个FBI Agent，或是一个Officer的指令。
十二聘请的美国联邦工作人员的工资，也不是都是纳税人的钱，有的机关，是机关本身挣钱来的，无忧所在的单位就是，一分不花纳税人的钱。
十三还有美国个个军队，以及军队机关，比如五角大楼，国防部，情报局，国家安全部，等等，都有聘请的文职人员，其招聘方式以及级别，职务，权力，影响力，跟其它部门的GS和SES级别一样的，只是背景调查严格些，对美国更加忠诚和尽职。
十四还有一些特殊专业人才聘请联邦员工，虽然他们不是管理人员，但他们的工资很高，高达年薪三十多万美元，比如医生，科学家什么的。
十五不要光看一个美国联邦工作人员的工资多少，职位高低，级别上下，办公室的大小，你要看这个人, 从事的是什么，负责的是什么，影响力是什么，比如一个小机关的财政总管，一个一年不到几十百万美元的机构的财政总管，跟一个负责一年几个亿，甚至十几亿美元的财政分管，是根本没有可比性的，虽然总管的级别可能比分管的要大。还有，一个小小的警察队长，都有可能有个非常好的办公室，但一个一星的将军，也有可能在没有玻璃窗子的办公室里上班，跟几个同事和用一个办公室。同样的，同是一个助理，级别相同，但一个部长的助理，肯定比无忧的助理，要权力大，影响大，虽然级别一样， 工资一样。
美国政府并不是人们想象的那样腐败，效率低，质量差，好多联邦工作人员还是很有抱负，有理想的人，是想做点儿事情的人，否则的话，美国不会是世界超级大国，更不会是人类的明灯。
同时，美国政府工作，也是自己飞黄腾达的很好的平台，就看你怎么应用了。
所以，无忧非常鼓励我们的孩子们，我们那些有志气，有抱负，有理想的孩子们，不妨到美国政府来工作，为自己，为我们华人，更为我们美国做出贡献。
至于，无忧同志的级别多高，工资多少，权力多大，无忧不会告诉朋友们，朋友们永远也不会知道，这是国家秘密。有的网友会说，无忧又再开玩笑了，联邦政府的工资是公开的，这, 你只是知道一半儿，通常的情况，但你没有知道特殊情况，个别情况，比如，你怎么也不会知道，无忧的工资不是纳税人的钱，无忧雇佣时，是无忧的手下,雇佣聘请了无忧，而不是无忧的上司。
无忧只是想分享与朋友们，看事情，不要一成不变, 千篇一律，更不要固执己见, 这对我们没有好处。。
FED有100多号人，比FED主席的工资还高。
