To say Georgetown is a strange place would be a gross understatement. As an employer, it might be best described as a schizophrenic monolith-- a tightly woven bureaucracy with an occasional mom-and-pop sensibility. It's both the Roman Empire right before the fall and Apple circa 2007--an ever expanding, customer-service minded, innovative, well-oiled machine.

And it's for that reason that I have somehow gone from being jobless next fall to having secured employment, once again, at Georgetown, based on a fortuitous run-in with an old colleague. And I'll be receiving full benefits. Amen.
