I knew a couple federal meteorologists GS whatever's...
On a couple of occasions, they were known to "investigate" a possible tornado - pick up the federal van, purchase gas with federal card, swing by to pick up their golf clubs...drive the < 2 hours to "investigate..."
Two minutes on site...
"...looks like a micro burst..."
Play 18 holes at the awesome golf course in the area - and then drive back.
This might have been a tough day.
Some days they had to release a weather balloon before sunrise...took the ex-AF weather dudes about 15 minutes...then they basically watched TV all day. Not bad to rake in about $85K+ a year in federal compensation. One of them did have some side gigs too - had plenty of time available on his primary federal job.
One is approaching his 30 years - hardest work he did was on his golf handicap.
