Description

Editor's Note: In this fictionalized account of real incidents, a retired FSO recounts his well-meaning but futile attempts to influence Washington's decision-making on personnel matters. In this story, the names and some facts have been changed to protect the innocent, and the writer! As Deputy Chief of Mission of the American Embassy in Dhaka, Bangladesh, in the mid-'80s, one of my responsibilities was to act as mentor for the several untenured junior officers assigned to the embassy. It was one of my favorite duties. Every couple of months I invited the four or five of them for dinner, prepared and served by my capable cook and cook's assistant at the spacious home the government provided for me. Maybe invite another experienced embassy officer to participate in the discussion of the concerns junior officers have in the early stages of what they hope will be a long and rewarding career in diplomacy. In between these dinners I met with each junior officer one-on-one to hear their concerns and to dispense good advice about how to do the work and manage their Foreign Service careers.
