I could totally do this. It’s actually the one thing that sounds insanely fun about working in DC: showing government folks how they can use Twitter for AWESOME purposes. Connecting legislators to their constituents (and each other). Connecting soldiers with families. Connecting. CONNECTING.
Even though I’m already gainfully employed and stretched thinner than Plastic Man in a God-sized tug-o-war… I am really giving some serious thought to applying for this gig.
What do y’all think??? Should I go for it?
