>> I really most enjoy, about my current job, the people who I get to work with.
I think that's true for many folks our age, is that no matter what you're doing you have
to be surrounded by people who inspire you [inaudible].
In my case they are fun and silly and ridiculously smart and super, super talented.
So that's a huge [inaudible] to get to work with folks like that.
The other thing that I really enjoy is just I came to this work
because I was really passionate about social justice and issues
that I see as very broken in the world.
And to have the opportunity to work on that stuff at the enormous scale that I am is
like it's easy to forget that that's what we're doing because we're very far away
from it, that it's hugely exciting.
There are definitely differences between working in the federal government or any government
as opposed to working in a nonprofit or private sector.
I don't think that should hinder people from coming and joining because we want lots of that.
But one of the things that's fundamentally different is that --
is the public eye and the public scrutiny.
We have regulations and rules and policies up the wazoo and there --
they hamper just sort of the day-to-day experience.
So it sounds sexy working in the White House.
It also means that our, like, email and technology that we use
on a day-to-day basis is very restricted.
