Protected union job with good pay >>> pension
I can handle the pension part decently myself as long as you guarantee me job security, which is what most government employees are provided with. The appeal of public sector jobs is the security and the structured hierarchy/pay scale.
With respect to budget talks, it's amazing how many of you are only now worried about blowing a 40 billion dollar hole in the budget. Perhaps you should have voiced your concerns at some point in the last 10 years?
Of course, that would have required acknowledging that our tax structure was unsustainable.
