Gov't Wants Techies to Play Musical Chairs

dsoltesz writes "Legislation that's been in the works to put a program in place to allow government techies to trade places with private sector counterparts for six to twelve month stints, just passed in the House. The government seems to be on the winning end of the Digital Tech Corps Act, until perhaps, the government IT workers realize the grass really is greener on the corporate side of the fence... If the bill makes it, it will be interesting to see if the concept actually gets implemented."

    What incentive? Well, as a Gov't employee you won't show up to work one day to locked doors and a note on the wall that says "Want tour last paycheck? Dial 1-800-EAT-SHIT."
