    What kind of government job specifically?

    Most of them. Certainly the ones that have unionized. If you know someone in the inside, they probably know if there’s a union.

    You’ll see more unions in government work because while private organizations breaking up unions is ethically questionable; governments breaking up unions is just openly totalitarian.

    If I can’t negotiate with a private employer, I might be a wage slave, but I can ask the government for help.

    If I can’t negotiate with my government job, it’s not actually a job, I’m just a slave.

      I meant more specifically in OP’s case, but also which pay that much. When I looked locally (major city) all the G jobs were under 100k. Usually well under.
