In the Monday morning edition of the Jolt, a look at David Axelrod’s messages on the Sunday talk shows, Eric Holder’s possible second lawsuit against Arizona, Democratic governors complaining about the administration, the expiration dates of optimistic assessments of the oil spill by Robert Gibbs . . . and then the closing note:

ADDENDA: If you don’t like your job . . . you’re probably not a federal worker: “In the largest-ever survey of the federal workforce, and the first to be conducted by the Obama administration. . . . Three-quarters of respondents said they feel a sense of personal accomplishment, 8 in 10 like the work they do, and more than 90 percent think it is important. In addition, two-thirds of respondents said they’re satisfied with their pay.”
Good to see they’re not complaining about the pay: “Federal employees earn higher average salaries than private-sector workers in more than eight out of 10 occupations, a USA TODAY analysis of federal data finds. Overall, federal workers earned an average salary of $67,691 in 2008 for occupations that exist both in government and the private sector, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data. The average pay for the same mix of jobs in the private sector was $60,046 in 2008, the most recent data available.”
Notice that 8 out of 10 are paid more than the private sector, but only two-thirds are satisfied with pay.
