Wow. I can say this, the agency took a huge loss in letting you go. Heads should roll on that one. You are an amazing asset to any organization, and will go very far...

Thanks, I left with the intention of returning to government service in the future. But, because I was in between assignments and had just jumped from one division where I was well known, to another one where I hadn't yet made a name for myself, and it was COVID and I wasn't in a regular Hqs job, nobody in my new division tried to stop me from walking out the door. Just filled out a few forms online and didn't let the door hit me on the way out.

I’ve actually had conversations with people about this incredible post and already sent it out to others. I’m going to go over it again several times while I hone in on your thoughts, processes, etc. You’ve given some great advice here and a serious roadmap that can be followed by many. Your discussion on options alone were worth their weight in gold. A lot of people don’t really understand that part and you laid it out wonderfully. Just a fantastic roadmap. Wow. Thank you so much for that.
