I'm a federal (executive branch) employee, so we have to be careful about what we talk about at work (thanks to the Hatch Act). So it generally doesn't come up. To the extent that it has outside of work, any misgivings are usually the same as those I see here on hubski.

My salary is also more or less straight from the federal teat. I just wanted to keep him/her/them/gov't accountable. Turns out I blew it. The Hatch Act is fine by me. I wish some of the public-facing, vocal members of the executive felt the same. And that's no dig at you, I very much enjoy your content here, j5.

Accountability is an excellent thing, pity it's not more in vogue right now. And thanks for the kind words!
