Yeah I don’t want to get into a whole convo about work unless they are curious and press for more.

But I guess at the Thanksgiving table it’s prob easier for your sibling who works at a bank, insurance agent, HVAC, nurse, construction worker, etc to explain their job Vs you working in DC as a think tank analyst, gov consultant, advocacy/nonprofit work job
