Last Tuesday, I was set to give a talk on 'climate change in the Northeast' at a retirement home but had to cancel due to hourly job threats.

After nearly two weeks of overwhelming uncertainty, today it happened. I was fired from my dream of working at NOAA. I'm so sorry to everyone also affected.

The reasons I was given:
--> I did not demonstrate that my work was in the public interest, and my ability, knowledge and/or skills did not match NOAA's needs.

More soon. It will be okay.

@ZLabe Been following for awhile and your informational graphics were always stellar. Hope you'll land somewhere great and keep informing the public about climate change.

I'm so sorry you lost your dream job.
