Dotage and Reminiscing
Dear NAFA,
I don’t expect to be carried for the year for a simple oversight. Enclosed please find my check. I am sending what I believe to be the correct amount simply because in my dotage I can’t remember the correct dues amount. Please distribute any excess as you see fit. After 33+ years and now 2+ years into retirement, I wonder who that was in 5 field divisions and more PODs than I can count? My office at 6 World Trade Center is gone and I haven’t returned since my transfer to (Deleted by editor.) as RAIC. I left there on a Friday at 5PM catching a ride home with the only decent agent there. When I think about it…which isn’t often…it occurs to me that their venal hypocrisy was predicated on being small frightened little men with the perception of power. A s you can tell I don’t write much, but enjoy THE AGENT and miss Billy Pace. Hope all is well with you and yours.
ATF Supervisory Special Agent – Retired
NAFA Notes… Always good to hear from you. It was our observation that most unproductive special agents were “…small frightened little men…” with too many receiving promotions to management where they continued as “….small frightened little men with the perception of power.” Take comfort in the fact…YOU…did the job in spite of these folks.
