Did you see this interview?

I almost fell off my chair when he said something to the effect that he had 1,000 staff working for them, most of who could be earning more in the private sector.

Really

17 people dead because the FBI dropped the ball and you want to negotiate a better compensation package for your team !!!!! and on national TV !!!!

In the private sector, a lot of people would be hearing "You're Fired" and "Don't let the door hit you on the way out"
