1.  did not know it was your sister - thought ana was your assistant so not
personal nor reference to trying to do something re your sister so dial
back the hurt given my ignorance of that fact.

2.  happy to add back.

3.  ana job is not going to be that big though -- b/c much more of this job
is your leadership and judgement -- you will not be doing nor needing to do
as much operational -- you will need to be doing more of his alter ego and
judgment.  if you find your self writing or doing as opposed to advising --
we're doing it wrong.

4.  in the end we all keep forgetting one thing -- wjc and hrc do a lot of
giving, to their family, to their staff, and to their friends.  They are
trying to be better partners to the foundation and save some of their
resources -- not an unreasonable thing for them to choose to do given where
they are, how much they've made and how little they have saved.  Folks seem
to be forgetting that and part of my role here is to offer a clea-reyed
picture of their expenses and their needs -- so they can layer on their
wants and their choices.  I am quite sure if he knows you won't come w/o
your sister, he'll do it b/c that is who he is.  And we shouldn't blame him
for the other personnel choices he makes that may not seem in his best
financial interest either.
