Agreed ... the above mentioned reasons are definitely very bad reasons to take up a job like the Civil Services
if ... they are the sole reasons !
I agree with the unquoted part of your post as well but the reason why I (or some one else as well) maybe enjoying the posts by CSP Mubeen Meher (X1Xi) and Adil Memon (plus others) may not be that we are looking for the perks and priviliges only.
I think knowing the details before making a decision for yourself is a good idea. You never know some one may be having a genuine reason behind when he looks for a particular privilege in a job e.g. an only child of ailing parents; he should be knowing what facilities the service has to offer for his parents. There can be other genuine reasons as well and they do not overlap with one's sincerity towards the job or towards serving the country.
I am posting this (sort of) clarification because I felt your post might stop the process of information sharing that was luckily triggered after a long period of "no news". I know you did not intend to break the discussion but unintentionally the post might have done that. Please don't take any offence
I'd go a step ahead and request the respected CSPs to take some time out of their busy schedule and post a small experiece of their respective services encompassing the priviliges, nature of job, travel requirements, nature of public relations, etc. whatever they feel like sharing. This would be of a great help for a registered audience of over 22,000 and of course the guests added to it.
I hope I made some sense
