How many people are on OlyBlog and work for a government entity? If you're comfortable with stating which entity, that's fine. If not, that's fine, too. I'm just curious how much each person has to give up in order to work for the public. I work for the U.S. Army (federal government.) While I'm probably afforded the largest amount of protections, I also voluntarily surrender and suspend constitutional guarantees.

Submitted by Merwyn Haskett on Sun, 11/11/2007 - 6:27pm.Sometimes it could be annoying or frustrating, but I imagine it would have been worse if Olympia Master Builders had hired me; they would often ask for me when I was a temp through Express Personnel, and they invited me to apply for their Front Desk position when it was open. I made the attempt to go for it (though Express dropped the ball) but on reflection I might have considered it selling my soul being a representative of mostly Republican pro-business money bulldozers. They were nice people to work with, though.
