Curator Job

In this area, that salary is well above the regional average.

Salary is the same for a GT-3 anywhere in the country. If someone wanted to earn more in the civil service, they should have become tradesmen. As well, that is the old salary scale. The contracts are being ratified this month I believe for the new pay raises, much of which is retroactive. (approx. 6.35%) In 12 months the process of contract negotiations will start all over again as this just covers the last contracts which expired in 2018.
One has to remember that there is some security to working for the federal government, dental and health benefits, and a pension waiting for you at the end when you turn 65. And in this case, you get to do museum work. Doing what one loves and getting paid for it as well. How does it get any better?

As for the winter, the buildings are adequately heated. You won't get frostbite if you stay indoors.
