Colorado Lottery interview questions

The lottery is under the state's Department of Revenue which requires a background check. Because of my tech start-up background, many of my clients were no longer in business. I tracked down my former colleagues to offer the "investigator" (rent-a-cop) with solid information and was scolded for being helpful. I was made to feel as though I was on trial. Over the years, several DOR workers have fleeced the state in various ways... nice vetting process.
