Sorry if this is out of place, but AMA was always one of the best subreddits and it is something I know I will miss as I set up my new home here at Hubski. So, if anyone is interested, I'd like to kick off an AMA tag.

I am a commissioned Foreign Service Officer with the US Department of State. Since it requires special permission from the Department to give interviews on policy etc, I want to avoid those topics as much as possible but I will answer questions about how I got my job, how often we move, what my working conditions are like, how my job affects my family, how diplomatic immunity works, etc

user-inactivated:

How did you train to become a diplomat and what kind of recruitment process were you put through? What's your favorite part of the job? How does diplomatic immunity work? I'm not sure if I'm allowed to ask this, but what is the most dangerous situation you've been in as a diplomat (maybe change names in your story, or don't answer this at all, up to you)?
