Get a grip

So the time I have before I retire is growing shorter and as it does it is becoming apparent that I am very, very, very fortunate that I am not hanging with the feds until I am at least not in a position to only to receive a portion of my pension. And the silliness and lunacy is really coming out. I am appalled frequently by the politics that are played at any given level of the government and am glad to be leaving. 25 years ago I started out as a Veterinary Medical Officer. I said "yes, ma'am" and "no, ma'am". And got things done. Now I am accused of not doing things even if there is evidence that these things are done. Our government is a wonderful thing, making life free for those who are here but it is not for those who are not patient. I am afraid I am reaching that point. It's time to put my resources to work for me instead of to put me to work for a boss that requires jumping two squares when only asked to jump one square.
