White House enlists Jeffrey Zients to help fix HealthCare.gov
I'm not interested in a political discussion here, but just curious how many of you would want to be "tapped" to fix something of this nature. (High risk, high profile, high stress; oh yeah, and if you screw up, you get a phone call from the President.)

Basically sounds like the potential of most of my jobs. If the system is down then if they are not screaming at me it just means they have a lot of self control. But I have just gotten use to ignoring it.

Oh dear! I hadn't heard about that one. That CANNOT have been an accident.

I'd take it.
You forgot one important criterion: high reward.
And this being government work, you get that regardless of results...

"He’s an expert in the field of effective management," Carney said, adding the agency would be "tapping his experience and expertise."
Oh, so he knows about web technologies? No? He's just a good manager. I see: a total know-nothing wanker who knows how to shout at people? That'll get the job done!
This just gets funnier and funnier.

Two drunks are walking along. One drunk says to the other, "What a beautiful night, look at the moon." The other drunk stops and looks at his drunken friend and says, "You're wrong. That's not the moon, that's the sun." Both started arguing for a while when they come upon another drunk walking, so they stop him.
"Sir, could you please help settle our argument? Tell us what that thing is up in the sky that's shining. Is it the moon or the sun?" The third drunk looks at the sky, then looks at them and says, "Sorry, I'm not from around here."

Yes.
You will need a special tool[^], but it's pretty easy to use, then it should work fine with a new carrier[^]

It's nice to hear that rfc1149[^] has been implemented at last.
I just wonder if they implemented it with QOS[^]?
