Eagerly taking the sort of Beltway Bandit contracting job that we had mocked in 1999 when I graduated in 2002. Windowless basement in a '70s government building in suburban Maryland with the office furniture the government employees had rejected, writing and tracking Java unit tests, and I was deliriously grateful.
