A Good Way to Start the New Year

There are not many ways to start off a new year than with a great new job.

Not me, silly.

Yesterday was the start of the 158th A-100 class. Welcome to the Foreign Service!

As has become my tradition, I am moving the following blogs from the future FS blogs blogroll to the FS blogroll.

Career Diplomat

The B Files

Where in the World is Zehra?

Zvirdin's at Large

Welcome to the Foreign Service! And let me know if I have missed anyone.

Also, if you haven't already, check out the Department's newly redesigned page at careers.state.gov. They even have a section of FS blogs...yours truly isn't listed. I admit my ego is a tad bruised, but since DiploPundit and Email from the Embassy are also missing, I guess I am in good company!

    I was wondering why your blog wasn't on there! You have an extensive list of blogs yourself.

    HAPPY NEW YEAR!

  2. May I say that I love this blog-moving tradition of yours?

    I also noticed that you and Diplopundit were absent from State's list - what's up with that? Of course, instead of listing all of those blogs, they could've just linked directly to you and told people to find your list here.

  3. thank you! I always love this tradition, too, and even more now that I'm one of the blogs!

    I must point out that it's the 158th, though!

  4. Dang! I knew it was the 158th and I don't know why I typed 156! But it is fixed now.

  5. That's crazy: your blog is the only reason I got clued into the entire FS blog world.
