I take it your wife’s brother is not a current state employee?

ETA: Just to add context to my cynicism. I worked every summer during college for the MDC (yes I’m old). This job was impossible to get unless you knew somebody. I literally picked up trash and mowed weeds next to route 16 for minimum wage. All of my co-workers were either college kids or prisoners.

An actual career-track job with health insurance and a pension is not something you can just apply for, unless things have changed dramatically for the better.
