What profession have you always admired?

I have a Swiss Army watch.  It’s a great timepiece.  I’ve had it for over a decade, yet its face looks like it was made yesterday.  It was heavily marketed as having a scratchproof face, still I was imagining more like scratch-resistant.  Swiss Army over-delivered on that promise.  However, they under-delivered by not letting me know I’d need to have the watch sent across an ocean for each battery change.  Apparently, if any non-contracted entity opens the watch, all the warranties and whatnot are voided.  It’s not sent all the way to Switzerland, but somewhere else outside the U.S.  There’s a good chance I wouldn’t have made the purchase if I’d known about the whole mail-away annoyance.  Fortunately, I purchased a lifetime battery replacement for a remarkably low price, especially given the hassle and cost of shipping it out of country.  Whenever its hands stop moving, it takes me a month or more to get over to Jared’s.  Another month until I get a voicemail saying it’s back in the States, awaiting pickup.  An additional flip of the calendar until I actually pick it back up.  Despite this lengthy annoyance, I’ve always admired horologists.
