But, all that being considered, I actually found I am a good fit for this place, for all the reasons that I've outlined: because I do speak fluent human, I don't mind standing up and having a good row, and I won't be bullied or capitulated by the metropolitan elite. To that end, I have truly had a great time, and I mean it. Where else can you go for a good dust-up, make some changes, and get paid for it? Now I feel like I've got a Master's in politics, with a far better understanding of how this place works and how to get things done, which has been absolutely fascinating.
