for God’s sake man…have some pride and don’t advertise yourself like this. It smacks of desperation…especially listing all those jobs like that!

and you’re a KP’er on top of everything else…sheesh!

btw, how’d you like working for that effing scabbag Dan Stabbert? Why aren’t you a master for him anyway?

He wants to get into DP so shouldn’t he be advertising on cruiserforums? Looks like he proficient at Tug jobs already. I think there is some movie companies in Van Nuys California that will let you do DP. If that’s what you’re in too…

Holy crap that’s funny as Hell. Thanks for the much needed laugh at 3 am while tanking.

Not to be a d-bag, but just a little effort with the search function will give you a ton of info on this subject…

There’s info on smaller companies that will allow you to break into the DP world easier.

hmmm a bored forum member sure could have fun with his phone number…

“yeah lou, this is Gary Chouest himself, you sound like a fine up-and coming mariner and I’d like to see you at my office on friday around 1130…i intend to make you master of the (new 300+’ anchor handler) immediately, and pay you handsomly at the fair rate of $12,000 per day. this is not a joke”

couldn’t help but notice on some vessels you’re the second mate, on others you’re the second officer…what the hell? this some kind of joke? great resume-writing technique they taught at KP lolz!!!
