Two job offers. One is a 12 month contract job (bleh) in NY (bleh), but it's all design work (ooh). The other is a permanent position (ooh) as a consultant (ooh) with lots of travel and paid training (ooh), but it's coding (bleh) in Atlanta. Wish I could combine them: a permanent design consultant position with lots of travel and paid training.

Congrats on the job offers.

As for this, let's see what I can do..

Where you're from - Nigeria (Port Harcourt) Family moved to Canada when I was young

Where you live - Currently live In Nova Scotia

What is your age? - 26

Your cultural heritage, lineage and genealogy - Nigerian, Nigerian, Nigerian..?

Do you know your roots - Sadly, no.

Favorite musical genre - Pop, I guess. I don't listen to music as much as I used to. As long as I like how it sounds, I'm okay with it.

Your profession/major/career interest - Currently an Oiler. I work in the engine room on a ship. I was studying for my Marine Engineering ticket but I took some time off.

Your religious affiliation - None

Hobbies - I don't really have any. I'd like to try some new things this coming year.

KFC, Popeye's, Churches, or Bojangles? - I cannot give an honest answer as we only have KFC on the island

Marvel or DC? - Depends. DC Animation blows Marvel out of the water, but Marvel Cinematic cannot compare to DC. In terms of comics, I'm not partial to any one of them. They both have books I enjoy reading.

Favorite superhero? - T'challa, it's true.
Happy he stood with Cap in Civil War 2, Captain Marvel needs to stop, Guardians need to go anywhere else in the galaxy but earth.

Anime or Nah? - Yes, I do watch. Haven't watched as much as I used to.

Favorite sport and team? - I'm not a huge sport watcher but from what I've seen of baseball, I like it. My favourite team is the Blue Jays, couldn't tell you why though. It just seem like they are a lot of fun.

What's your favorite Disney movie? - Lion
Anastasia
King. Pixar: Incredibles. Not animated: Never really thought about it

What's your favorite video game and genre? - Favourite genre is open world RPG. Favourite game is well.. Final Fantasy VII. Nostalgia is real. I never even finished the thing! Of the games I've played lately, FarCry Primal was the one I enjoyed the most.

Oh, boy, tough.

Single genre? You got me messed up. Puzzle/Strategy > Horror > Fighters. I'm too indecisive for that ish, DD. My favourite game of all time is Gears of War 2.

Hey guys. About a year ago I posted in this thread that I'm a cop and I'm putting together some bias training for officers that would hopefully give some perspective and understanding to the current issues that police have with the black community. I asked you guys what I should include and general advice for how I should go about it.

I have roughly 80% done and I was hoping to post an outline of what I have so far and see what you all think of it?

I'd appreciate any feedback you could give because I have aspirations to pushing this out to other departments. We actually are piloting a new training platform for greater accountability for new officers that identifies deficiencies and share the training records state wide. It would keep people from resigning ahead of being fired, only to move to another department (which is sadly a very common issue). I think I can piggyback my training along with the pilot program.

Let me know if it's ok to post it here to share. Thanks!
