I had a security clearance...aside from the need to pee in a cup and pay my bills on time...very little else was expected. I had access to info you couldn't even imagine...and everyday...in every way...I kept true to serving all of you and keeping my mouth shut unless there was a business need to speak. They used to send me to hacking classes...I hung out with the guys who make real mischief and they taught me a lot. And I taught them nada. Life in the grey zone was very interesting. My moral compass had zero influence from Mr. Jolly. I was more than happy to share with my bosses the details about my life. My problems with bosses only started when a certain supervisor was using his sexual needs to pressure younger female employees. I was pretty quick to call him out on it and he was pretty quick to deep 6 my career. Such is life. At least - as of now, the girls are OK and I'm moving down to TV to enjoy the good life.
