If you take a SU job with MSC and want to get into the deck or engine dept’s make sure you do not do a very good job as SU. In my 17n years at MSC I saw more than one guy work very hard in the scullery etc only to get the shaft from the Chief Steward at eval time. The Steward doesn’t want to lose a good hand so he gives a crappy eval and you get stuck in the SU position. Do a crappy job and the Steward wants to get rid of you and gives you a better eval and recommendation for transfer to another dept.
