I tell what really winds me up, and that's when people say "i'm a civil servant".\n\nI used to work in retail and had to complete finance forms which needed customer information including occupation.\n\nI had an  endless number of heated conversations with arrogant people who wouldn't tell me what their actual occupation was and insisted they were a civil servant when the finance company wouldn't accept this.\nThere was a separate box to say if they were or not, why is it such a big deal to them?\n\nThey would be instantly turned down with this information but argued and argued when this happened.\n\nMaybe Civil Servant sounds a lot better than office clerk which is  what they actually do.

I've never seen an explanation either. We have read explanations of the role of that rank.\n \n     I think that in this context, staff is just part of a name.

Not necessarily because those positions are often subordinate to a higher, elected official. It is imperative that these assistants cooperate with the elected official because otherwise, the administrative team will not be productive at all. Anyways, the elected official already represents the interests of the people and can pass his voted-for policies to the secretaries and attorney general.

Veteran's Affairs Secretary.  It is customary to have at least one Cabinet level secretary not attend for the safe succession should anything happen during the State of the Union Address to the President and the Cabinet members.

It dosen't really matter but according to protocol it should be the branch of service. If none are available the branch that is nearist to the deceased gets the job.I have presented the flag to many widows and I was enlisted.  An officer should give the flag if it was another officer or  if enlisted the enlisted should give the flag to the next of kin.

It is a map of which "departments" report to which departments as well as who reports to whom.\n\ne.g.   VP of Finance & VP of IT & Admin Assistant to President report to the President.\n\nthen all managers who report to VP of Finance show up underneath him.\n\nYou can find an example here: http://www.european-patent-office.org/epo/an_rep/2001/images/gifs/org_structure.gif

As best as I can remember, the Joint Chiefs of Staff outranks all others by position.  As far as the brnaches, the Army, Navy, and Air Force are all their own department and hence the same, some people go by when the branch was established which would be Army Navy Air Force (sorry Marines fall under the Dept of Navy).  The Marines actually fall under the Department of the Navy.  The Coast Guard is not part of Dept of Defense and upon act of Congress can be placed under the direction of the Navy, but like the Marines is it's own branch of the military.

I work for the government but I am not sure if they all work the same way.  But my boss is a supervisor, above her is a manager, and then about that is the district manager.  On top of all of them is the Director.  There should be some type of listing posted somewhere at the site with the order of command.  Hope that helps.\n\nI am not exactly sure what the second question is asking.  Pleas e clarify.

Whats the Civil Service?\nGovernment officials employed in civil occupations that are neither political nor judicial. \n\nHow does it select its government workers? \nModern civil service personnel are usually chosen by examination and promoted on the basis of merit ratings and the seniority system.  In other countries, corruption and patronage are more important factors. \n\nThey often serve as neutral advisers to elected officials and political appointees. Though not responsible for making policy, they are charged with its execution.

Military ranking is the basis for many facets of society.  Police departments, in many cases, follow the concept to the point of using names and ranks for individuals as they climb the department ranks.  Protocol in the corporate structure is fashioned after military structure.  Many in the corporate structure today, would not realize this because they have never served in a military environment.\n The Pentagon, or for that matter any military complex in the whole world where civilians and military personnel work together, have melded there ranking so that seniority and rank prevail over those of lesser rank or seniority.  So much so, that a civilian  with a higher G-rating than an officer with a lower O-ranking is in command of a project they work on, jointly, unless the civilian is assigned only in a consulting capacity.

You need to be a little more specific.  What do you mean by various levels...levels between ranks or types of agencies like local vs. state vs. federal?
