[blindLaw] Clarification on General Schedule classification system

[Derek Manners]

Hi all,

The point of this list is for blind lawyers or those interested in law to connect with other blind lawyers or those interested in law. 

I don’t think it’s meant to be so limiting that we can’t ask about legal questions (whether they are homework related or practice related). 

To Sanho’s point, it’s hard to answer the question being asked since we don’t have the full context. But I don’t think it’s off topic since it relates to the practice of law. 

Tom, my understanding is that GS-000 - 21000 are not all white collar jobs.  Here’s a listing of jobs and their GS codes. https://federaljobs.net/federal_jobs_opening/#Government_Jobs

Best regards
Derek
