I referred to ‘recent graduates’. I seriously doubt a new grad would even be allowed to pull those hitches. I abhor the thought of working 6 months a year never mind 8 or 9. Sure. If you have no home life, don’t mind losing all personal relationships you could work 10 months. Or 11 like Filipinos or Indians. Isn’t this why we are Mariners? To have time off as well as time at work. Maybe I’m pickier. I like being home.
