The article Eli mentions/m7 can be found online, which surely violates somebody's copyright. Facinating, though.

Janitors at the NSA would have a fun time. The carpets welded
to the floor are reportedly pretty indestructable, so creative
cleaning would be possible.

About two years ago the Baltimore Sun had a good story about
a former NSA site purchased by some astronomers who where
happy to have a site with already installed dishes. But the
site had some definite quirks. Unfortunately the Sun charges
for access to old articles (query "astronomers and NSA" at
www.sunspot.net) and Google shows discussion of the story but
no other sources.

My mom used to work as a secretary for the CIA, before my older brother was born. A few years back, when she was looking for a new job I helped her put together her resume. Under the job description for that job it simply read, 'Classified'

Also, according to friends/coworkers who work for the goverment, you can always tell if someone in a training class is from the NSA or the CIA because while everyone else will tell you who they work for, only these two groups will respond with "an organization in the intellegence community." Which leads to the question, "which side of the potomac?" (NSA is in MD, CIA is in VA)

I want to get a job as a janitor at the NSA, and follow all security guidelines to the letter. It will be obvious to people that I am a janitor, because of the overalls and the fact that I'm always so dirty, but I won't ever admit it.

"Can someone explain this one to me?"

Three, two, one, altogether now:

'Yes, but then we'd have to kill you.'

Down under the "GUIDE TO SECURITY-RELATED SERVICES" telephone listing section, near the very bottom, we have the following entry:

Birthday Spankings 963-5429/688-7311

Can someone explain this one to me? :)


(followup - it appears this document was first leaked around 1994 - and has been floating around since, there are any number of places it's out on the web, but only a few of them have the "improvement" shown above, according to google.)

We all know what happens when you try and leave the agency.

You are Number 6...

These are MY favorite passages:

"Additionally, close and continuing associations with any non-U.S. citizens which are characterized by ties of kinship, obligation, or affection are prohibited. A waiver to this policy may be granted only under the most exceptional circumstances when there is a truly compelling need for an individual's services or skills and the security risk is negligible....The marriage or intended marriage of an immediate family member (parents, siblings, children) to a foreign national must also be reported through your SSO to the Clearance Division (M55)."
