Most of my FED friends are good people who wouldn't operate against their conscience if powers were to move them to. I know others who will obey any rules, simply to gain favor with their rulers, the people they serve being the unfortunate victims of their licensed power trips.

In my younger years, I believed my work for the federal government was a net positive, and that by doing my job with excellence, people would be better off. However, those with the best intentions, in my experience, are always surpassed by those who wholeheartedly submit to the state. Opportunity flows to the good dog who never resists.

I don't see my past title as a stain. I can look back and say that I didn't waiver when given opportunity to chase rank. It cost me everything but my sense of self.
