They say the only constant is change. The same is true here. I thought I’d only be an advisor, going out a
few times a week in convoy to see my Principal at the Ministry of Interior,
becoming his personal vizier in the ways of dealing with us. Luckily, I am doing this, but the Nobles here
also made me the Director of a major Division with a staff of 20 and all the
daily tasks that go with it. I get to
track progress to plan, supervise, build plans, ensure my folks stay safe and
play nice as well as respond to daily tasks from above. I came 7000 miles to do what I was doing back
in DC, except that I walk around armed and go to some meetings outside the castle
walls dressed for battle (literally and figuratively). Thanks goodness I have a
solid analysis team and a great British Deputy.
Unfortunately he will be leaving in a few weeks. After four years of this, he wants apply his
skills in a place a bit greener and where you can have a beer after work. I don’t blame him.
Part of my team. Lead analyst and my Deputy.
