Calling all Cars…
By Jesse Morgan | October 27, 2005
So in order to keep this job, I have to be cleared for a position of public trust. This means I have to document
- Every Place I’ve lived in the last 7 years
- Every Place I’ve workd in the last 7 years
- A Contact for each one of the above
- 3 people who know me well.
So if I start asking weird questions, and you get calls from the Feds, don’t freak out- I’m not going to jail- it’s just clearance. As far as I know, I won’t have any secret information on UFOs or anything and that fact that I’m getting this isn’t secret to my knowledge- they’re just making sure I’m not a nutcase.

Heh, I had to fill this out for my last position and get fingerprinted. I come to the new place and they hand me the same forms for the same process I just went through at the last agency. They want you to give exact dates for shit that happened 10 years ago so some of it was precise guesstimation.

Oh, this is the new standard for every government contractor. It’s not even for any particular clearance.

shedao exactly- I shoulda clarified, it’s more or less a background check than access to any classified toenail clippings. They say “minor security clearance” so you can be proud of something…

Yeah he is cool, all except for that over throw the government plot and appoint his cat the King of the Western Hemisphere thing he has been working on in his basement. Don’t worry though he only starts talking about that when he has finished smoking some big ole crack rocks and is doing some hookers.

stone: So basically he’s got the ambition of our current president with the hobbies of our last one? Sounds patriotic to me.
