This is a tight knit group of relatively sharp minded people who are suspicious at least partly as a result of being involved in a hobby that requires suspicion and investigation. It's not surprising that these two posts caught someone's attention and raised eyebrows, as these would seem to be highly time demanding careers that would likely be exclusive. Not saying it's impossible- but forum members here are quick to note things that fall into the realm of not very likely.
I've... some background in evolutionary biology, but it's not been a primary career of mine. What is your primary interest within biology, what courses or level did/do you teach?
also, I've got to second the recommendation of a 2254.50, and if not that maybe a first generation aqua terra with a fully brushed bracelet.
I understand the scrutiny required here and I have noted the amount of knowledge and intelligence of forum members. I’ll also note that I haven’t tried to sell anything. In fact, the only thing I’ve requested is information that I clearly didn’t know or understand. And people have been gracious…I ended up finding this place after being gifted an old watch that belonged to my father. That bumper is now in Indiana getting serviced.
Since you asked, and I brought it up (mistake on my part), I teach primarily Human Anatomy and Physiology, Medical Microbiology, and Cell Biology. I work at a University, but the structure of the schools (disciplines) are housed under “Colleges” within in the University. I run one of those colleges as Dean. It contains three schools.
I ended my qualifying post with the statement “I now have the opportunity to potentially advance again.” If I decide to get into the police world full-time, I’ll have to necessarily step away from the academic world. It would be a significant career change pretty late in my work life. Those two positions can’t be done simultaneously. It is a decision that doesn’t have to be made soon and will require a ton of soul-searching. The position was offered for my lengthy consideration, not because of my policing experience, but because of my diverse leadership expertise. And the people I would work with trust me.
In addition to my academic duties, I currently serve in a reserve role in a department but rarely have the time to actually do police work. I spent a few hours at the PD yesterday afternoon late. In my original question I simply asked what Omega watch might be suitable in such an environment in a daily basis.
You can’t make this stuff up and if I were peddling snake oil, I’d have come up with a better, and more plausible, story to do so. Turns out, I’m not peddling anything and find this place a nice escape from the stress of the real world in a subject that interests me.
Perhaps I should have qualified my post(s) more clearly. Perhaps you all have been scammed one time too many. I’m betting the answer lies somewhere in between.
