Too Much to Say

We're disheartened & angry about the callous treatment of tens-of-thousands government employees who are losing their jobs or living under that threat. This intentionally cruel idiocy diminishes us all. DCPA+CJ hopes to increase the volume of opportunities here going forward & maybe quicken the job-search for some of the folks who have been impacted. We could go on for paragraphs, but we'll just get to the jobs instead. Hang in there.
