Welp no surprise he wants to work for “the government “. WTF is that anyway as an ambition? Seems a bit unfocused. I suspect in the world he likely envisions it doesn’t really matter.
I suspect he was being paid some sum (probably $500 to $800) to just put on the gear...do a ‘gig’, and assumed this would never lead to his ID. He guessed wrong.
You don’t generally “plan” to work for the government after college unless you’ve already been hired by them.
