Don’t most government jobs use pensions as their retirement plans? Quitting early is like killing your retirement plan and starting from scratch. Great way to waste 15 years of work.

They do, but it doesn’t quite work like that. If someone who has 15 years in leaves and comes back any time after, they start at 15. The time they were gone doesn’t count, but all federal time is aggregated at the end (except for military time which has it’s own rules).
