And I know they are operating with huge workloads and could always use more staff. That is in almost all companies and government. My job was reorganized and we went from 16 to 4. I left soon after that. Waited until 65. Could have left at 62, but stuck around hoping it would improve. It didn't. I threw 32 years into a regulatory program, and the more lawyers and consultants they could afford did make it drag cases out.
