Surprisingly good experience, and even a call from the man himself. I'm actually impressed, I expected way more incompetence and fumbling from a government.

I don’t know if it’s just me or it’s the fact that I’m reading this on mobile on a small screen but I couldn’t stand the writing style. Curious to know if anyone else felt that way.

I think it was funny and I liked it. Still didn’t read the whole thing though – maybe later, am not in shape right now. But did read quite a bit of it.

I mean not to call him out but this did happen and he didn't navigate his way out (although that says nothing about his confidence).

EDIT: To be fair, it's been a decade. Maybe he's worked on his orienteering skills since having that experience?

I read it on my phone and I love the writing style.

Different people are different.

The contact form on Abbott's website 403ing is impressively on-brand.

Same. Sounds like the author thinks he's way funnier than he is.
