Today I received my security file from the Department of Energy. Enclosed was the first specific allegation of wrongdoing on my part. They claimed I used the company computer for hosting my personal websites. This allegation is completely false and I explained this to HR on May 26th in response to their vague questions about "large quantities of personal information" on the company computers. As I then suspected, they didn't believe me.
