Last Day of Work

Today was my 35th birthday and my last day of work for the New Zealand Office of the Auditor-General (OAG). I had a wonderful experience at the OAG and met many intelligent Kiwis doing good and meaningful work. It was an honor to work alongside them, and to share in everything from audit process to Friday Floors (drinks) and practical jokes. I know that work for the U.S. federal government in Washington will not offer the same breadth of experience (and I fear the high level of bureaucracy a little bit!).
