In many ways today, the end of our collective administrative leave, mirrored and bookended the beginning back on Saturday, March 1, when we took stock of the bombshell and searched for survivors.
Today it hit home for many of us in the 18F diaspora again that we have been discarded, our service to the nation discounted and disrespected, in some cases our life’s work upended by the notional equivalent of selfish backward children playing with dangerous toys they don’t understand.
We are resilient. We continue to take care of each other. We’ve got plans in the works and things already happening. We’ll be back. Some of us already are.
