At a previous govt employer, SSN's were the employee's id # until about 3 years ago,
when they converted all SSN employee id #'s to a sequence generated employee id. At
my current govt employer, SSN's are not used, employee's are assigned job # ids. Now
there is a reason for this. In the state of Florida under the sunshine law, almost
everything is public record including employee records, except SSN's. Its easier for
HR to disclose a personnel file, not having to black out every reference to a SSN. I
wish it was b/c they wanted to protect the privacy of their employees :) But hey
where else can you work a 4 x 10 hr day work week. The .com world was 6 x 12 and the
stock options were .... well I owed them money!
