I have been trying to get any type of deck position for nearly 6 months with no luck! I have a 100 ton near coastal, AB-unlimited, BST, BRM, Radar, RFPNW & Crowd Control. I have been running Charter Boats for the last 5 years and am trying to get onto either a freighter or into the oil patch with no luck! Any suggestions??? I just want to get my foot in the door, dont really care where… Is a Union the way to go? Any advice is greatly appreciated!
Same boat I’m in and YOU have way more papers than me. Damm.
I’ll say it, Door to Door in the oil patch.

The search function in the upper right hand corner of this page has a wealth of information. Check it out, and come back with any specific questions.
Thanks water. I’ll check it out. Thank you c.captain for your insightful input regarding my request. Thanks Rebel for your suggestion. I’m planning on doing that.

Was that too subtle & not pointy enough? Shall I REALLY let him have it?

Well sir, I know you are good at many things, however I don’t think subtle is one of them.
Hopefully the noobie got the hint, if not I think you will have the 100% backing of the crew to let him have it.
So glad I didn’t find this app until AFTER i landed my job
People here are very helpful as long as you actually read some before posting. The OP asked a question he could have easily answered by reading a few recent threads as opposed to starting a new thread.
There is a difference between someone coming on and asking: how do I do this.
And someone asking: do this for me.
If someone asks the first way either in person or on any forum I would gladly help out.
But for people to continually ask the same second question over and over is really lame. Yeah, maybe the sarcasm is a bit much. But its not like they are paying for advice here.
It’s like your kids whining they can’t find the pickles in the fridge. LOOK first. Actually move stuff and LOOK! Gheesh!
