2 Years, Ayyyy Dios!

Today marks my 2nd year anniversary as a Contracting Officer with the good ole US Federal Government! My, how 2 years has flown by! While the intern group I was apart of in Michigan is spending the day celebrating their graduations from the program-complete with formal ceremony, I'm sitting here swamped with work in Long Beach. I was the only one of 20 interns to jump ship early and head for greener (literally) pastures.

In the words of the "the real" Lebowski, who we'll meet in a few short weeks, :

"It's funny. I can look back on ..[2 years].. of achievement, on challenges met, competitors bested, obstacles overcome. I've accomplished more than most men, and without the use of my legs. What. . .What makes a man, Mr. Lebowski?

I think the Dude's response is as good as I'll ever get to answering that question: "A pair of testicles!" Seriously though, I'm still not sure about this career path, but at least it allows for career growth and time to travel. Besides, I really can't complain, especially since, with this promotion, I receive over a 20% raise in my salary! Just gotta watch those golden handcuffs now!
