Welcome to my discussion page. I made several edits before registering, but thought this was the better way to go. I used to be 201.240.31.236 and some other IPs that are very similar because I have a dynamic IP.


Puppet

I had noticed you had flagged User:FsBrat as a puppet. I was pretty sick of the constant revers for Department of State, United States Foreign Service, etc. Tensions among Foreign Service, Civil Service, and others serving abroad is quite high and people like him/her don't help. The IP address resolves for most State traffic, even I have unknowingly posted on it when I'm at lunch and the login system has not worked.

Civil Service: You wrote the following on my user talk page:

Finally, you seem to have a single minded devotion to calling all employees in the State Department Civil Service, not withstanding consensus language and well cited references to the department's own websites. I am curious, why have you not taken this same mission to other agencies and departments of the executive branch - by your logic the Vice President and the cabinet are all civil service in the same manner that the FS is a part of the civil service. You have lost a lot of credibility not just to to the inanity of your edits,"

YOu then went on to accuse me of "sock puppetry" without providing any evidence or explanation>

You may not agree with the law, but the law does clearly define the Civil Service. Yes, the workforce at the State Department is civil service. The Secretary of State is also Civil Service. And members of the Foreign Service personnel system, including officers and other FS personnel are also civil servants. As an FS member I do not consider this to be insulting or POV. The fact that a small number of FS members are trying to claim that we are above and separate from the rest of the Civil Service should not be a factor. Please look at US Code Title 5.
