Petraeus: "May I please go to Trump Tower, sir? It's in NY."
Disgraced former General, David Petraeus, can't leave town without asking his probation officer.
If President-elect Donald Trump taps former Gen. David Petraeus to be his secretary of state, Petraeus has three days to notify his parole officer about his new job. He also needs to tell the probation officer before he leaves North Carolina -- and his work travel would have to be approved by his parole officer, too.

Petraeus, once a widely celebrated military leader who oversaw operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, was sentenced on April 23, 2015, to serve two years of probation and pay a $100,000 fine for sharing classified information with his biographer and lover, Paula Broadwell.
...
"The defendant shall notify the probation officer within 72 hours of any change in residence or employment," read a court judgment, which was reported first by USA Today."The defendant shall not leave the Western District of North Carolina without the permission of the Court or probation officer. Travel allowed for work as approved by U.S. probation office," the document also said.

In my dreams, ha:
Petraeus: Yes, sir. The President wants me to go to Saudi Arabia Friday and then on to Russia. May I go?
Probation Officer: Hmmm. Russia, you say, Mr. Secretary. Let me check upstairs. I'll get back to you. Don't leave town.
I hope he got permission for his recent visit to Trump Tower.
He also must submit to warrantless searches of his person, office, home, electronic devices, by his parole officer or other law enforcement at any time.
If he were to be selected for Secretary of State or another position, Obama would probably feel compelled to pardon him. [Edit - I suppose it would be Trump at that time.]

God forbid if you give out classified information, even for the BEST of reasons as an enlisted.

i suppose that these terms might be a problem in granting him security clearances:
unless his probation officers have a really high level of security clearance.
presumably, he'd have to be pardoned in order to take the job.
Luckily, national security is
Luckily, national security is of no importance to the State Department, as Hillary has shown. And Hillary can be his precedent, as the Bush Admin was Hillary's.

A tin labeled 'coffee' may be a can of worms or pathology identified by a lack of empathy/willingness to harm others to achieve personal desires.
