Sometimes it's a thrill to work inside the CIA. The first time that I ever walked through the doors of the CIA with my badge, I felt this tremendous sense of accomplisment and this real feeling that I belong to a very elite organization. But I think what's surprising to most people is I think the CIA is like any other big corporation. And some days are incredibly dull and mundane, and there's a lot of coffee breaks and people going around or people sending each other instant messages or e-mails and planning for the office Christmas party. I mean a lot of times people will ask me what television show is the CIA most like? And they are thinking Alias and really the show that comes most to mind is The Office for me because it's very much like the day to day operations at the CIA or within headquarters.
