About Darwins_Retriever
13 years as a history, science, and math teacher. Left twice, should have learned my lesson and not gone back. The first time I left teaching, went into the Army. Served as a Counterintelligence Agent, half of the time in civilian cloths. On my last week (I was leaving because of my wife, who I would divorce 7 years later) the MI branch gave me a call and offered me school for Defense Against Electronic Surveillance (bug chasers) and a promotion to Warrant Officer. After that spent time doing security investigations and inspections with the Feds, McDonnel Douglas, and Raytheon. Moved to Florida (for some reason, hey my wife would find her 2nd husband there) and went back to teaching Hated it but I held on for 10 years. Now I'm waiting for retirement.Avatar Image
