You got a new job. Congratulations. How'd that happen? I uh I had a lot of friends reach out to me from the administration uh saying that they really needed help doing really looking into IRS modernization. It's one of the worst managed IT projects in the government.
Uh, I think maybe second only to the VA's attempt at implementing an electronic health record system. Uh, it's about $15 billion over budget. It was actually started right around the time I was born and it's still ongoing. It's still five years away. It was five years away in 1991.
It's still five years away. So they said they really needed somebody to look into this and see if we could fix it. So um I I've always wanted to do government service. It's a thing that has been important to me.
