[QUOTE=rigdvr;134322]Why are you wasting time trying to rain on someone else’s parade? If someone thinks they have an upgrade path figured out, let them jump through the fiery hoops and submit. If wrong, they will then learn. By wanting to “quell” the natives you come off as a know it all dick trying to hold others down, even if you are right. It’s like arguing politics or religion on the boat…pointless. Your bridge sounds miserable to be on.[/QUOTE]
I was specifically asked this by the vessel master. Ultimately I don’t care what the answer is, but I am intrigued by the answer. He is stirring up the natives, not me. Just trying to head this off before he starts firing off emails to the office.
Just trying to understand system as well because someone I don’t know is asking me to sign off on theirs. I am a new hire and new to this OSV world.
I have only mentioned what I understand to be true based on reading policy letters, but have clearly asked for correction by this forum if anyone can offer it.
If your perception is that I come off as a know it all dick, you’re free to it.
And I am free to ask you for an answer to the question at hand, instead of jumping on here at o’dark 30 to be a rude, assumptive prick.
I began the thread the way I did to make it clear I take no sides on this issue, if it wasn’t clear, oops.
The bridge is fine here, but I bet only a miserable bitch could stand to be around the likes of you.
