Like i say. I know i got to get my foot in the door. Hoping MSC will work out. I will wait patiently for them to start reviewing the apps. If i get to tired of waiting i will take what i can get. There are plenty of places i could look to apply around savannah brunswick ga area. Thanks for the words of hope. As they say. I wont quit my day job in the meantime. Just looking for the right job to leave the One im in.
Kirby has a bunch of in house training for you to move up, sounds like the 17/h was the training rate until you go through their deckhand class which would be beneficial for you. If you can deck on tugs youâll have no issue deep sea.
Last I remember, Kirby for the part i worked for was 300ish didnât work the river so I may be wrong, but the offshore boats recently got good raises.
It is far easier to find work as a deckhand than finding work with no experience. Iâd jump on the offer, ask questions like what does the promotion path look like, etc.
while working as a deckhand youâll learn about other companies through your crew mates. Youâll also see other companies equipment, see whoâs busy and who isnât.
Thanks for the advice. I appreciate it.
Iâve been searching the forum and came across this, very helpful. Making similar moves to the OPâs this year. Thanks!
Good luck on your career development.
