As you say, most natives aren't interested in climbing the political ladder of fed work. Most are office positions. Meanwhile if someone moves here to work in the federal government or related industry, they aren't coming here to spend 20+ years in the same office. Just two different worlds.

I have been in the same office for 16 years! I think most people want stability. Some are built for moving and grooving through agencies, consulting firms and job titles. Some just want to clock in, do their job, clock out and go home.
