How about your pay at various companies for travel days? Like full day crew change coming, no pay going home, two half days , what’s the deal as far as that goes? ---

Otto Candies GOM: 28/14, 28/28, 14/14, 56/28. They pay for no travel within USA, at all, for anyone. Brazil: 28/28 or 56/28. They pay for all travel for everyone. That includes flights, hotels & travel to/from hotel/ship/airport. ---

I heard they recently sold 1, maybe more, of their smaller OSV’s to Guice Offshore. They have a lot of debt for a company that is strictly relying on the shelf “spot market.” ---

Well, I was premature about my prospective Gulf job…head hunter forwarded my paperwork and I heard nothing back by close of biz Friday. I was fully qualified for the job but I think they chose someone else, and that’s fine. But I am not surprised at all, and so we move on. PM ME if you want the company name. ---

A lot of these oil company offices are barely considered to be at work on a Friday. Nothing ever seems to get done on Fridays and they usually leave early. I’d look for more stuff to happen on Mondays when they have their meetings. Maybe you still have a chance. ---

It’s the same old story; you have to be there in person. There are a few lazy personnel guys that would rather just call a (mariner pays the fee) headhunter instead of doing their jobs. It’s also dishonest because he knows it against the law for anyone to charge a mariner a fee for finding a job. There are a few really corrupt personnel guys who get kickbacks from the headhunters. Of course there are a few good (company pays the fee) headhunters.
