Just posted a new video on this topic. What are everyone’s thoughts? THE MARITIME INDUSTRY NEEDS MORE WOMEN

Bad take bro… separate work from life. You don’t go to sea to meet girls. At least not on ur ship

this is well said. your primary concerns on board should be getting the job at hand done and getting home safe. dating is the last thing on my mind at work as it should be. it is a professional environment. doesnt mean you dont make lasting friends a long the way, but no one should have to deal with…
