-: So, there's absolutely one thing
that gets me excited when I come to work every morning,
and that's the people I get to work with.
I work with this phenomenal set of engineers,
technologists, business developers, program managers.
These are the people that I see every day in my office.
They just bring me up when I come into work.
Thinking about going to work,
Thinking about who am I going to get to work with today?
How am I going to get to affect
the lives of the people around me?
And how are they affecting me?
So that we can provide the best value
we can to our customers.
Because what we do is important.
I don't wanna say, you know, we're not an internet company.
We don't provide a website for you
to go to to buy something.
We're providing services to the country
that protect the most precious things that the country has.
We're providing the most advanced technology
to the government in terms of some of the things we do
for the B21 Spirit or some of the more exciting things we do
for things like the James Web Space telescope,
which are just cool.
So, the most stressful part of the job that I have,
is dealing with emergencies,
so when people have an emergency that has to be dealt with.
And I don't mean an emergency like a family emergency,
but an emergency on a program where we have
some issue that has to be dealt with,
and usually those issues have to be dealt with now.
And, so, that increases the amount of stress
in everybody that's participating.
And, so, we try and do everything
we possibly can to identify issues early in advance,
so that we're not in the immediacy
solving a problem right now that everybody
has to stop what they're doing.
So, those are things that bring
the most amount of stress to my job.
