It's Official
posted by Jen at 4:53 PM
As of today, I am officially an Orbit Flight Dynamics Officer (FDO). This is very significant, because when I started working here becoming a certified FDO was the highest goal I had definitely set myself for my career. I am 28 years old.
Now, there are three levels of "advanced FDO" certification, if you will. If I decided to go all to way to Ascent FDO, that's easily a career path that could last another 6-7 years or even until the Shuttle is retired. Still, I almost wish I had management ambitions or something to work towards. People don't think you're motivated if you can't list 10 year goals.
Anyway, no time for serious career musings right now. The Film debuts in 1 hour. :)

Dude, I don't know what I want to be doing in *two* yeras, much less ten.
Think Flight Director. Nobel Laureate. Cabinet Member. Pulitzer Prize winning author. Be lofty.
