The summer before 9/11, I started a tech support job at an educational publisher. I’m still here as a Level 4 tech because it’s a very stable, secure job. If the DoE is eliminated, I have no idea what happens to my job now or in the future, so I’m terrified. Most of the tech knowledge I had 24 years ago has been replaced with institutional knowledge that isn’t transferable. Plus, I’m 51, which is a rough age to start looking for new tech jobs.

Could you do us all a favor and set up shop in the middle of Congress?
To be fair you’d probably fit right into a large organization’s IT department.
