THINGS THAT I DON’T KNOW

Image
Problem with Career Ship Management is that they are always never specific on the objectives that I should take first and as expected they will inform me on a late basis, such as what happened last Thursday were I was informed yet again that I have to take these some sort of cholera inoculation tablets, and report ASAP on the medical counter. The thing that annoys me is that they have the full two weeks to inform me about this and they did not even bother to give me at least any hints that I should take this requirement and only informed me on the last moment. They should cut that habit of surprising their employees. Anyway in other news, Claiming the MARINA COP II-4 / II-5 (TESDA COC) wasn't that big deal as it was when I was applying for it (posted on my previous journal entry) and the best part is that I don’t have to wake up on a very early time just to get those two pieces of paper. I went there at about 8:30am on the sixth floor of MARINA Building and just presented my claim ...

THE TRUTH ABOUT CAPTAIN PHILLIPS

Can you imagine that your worst boss  in real life would be pictured here as a saint and a hero ??! WHAT THE FUCK ???! why don't they just stab my heart with a stake huh ?! anyway sailors are meant to be deceptive in the first place , only shows their character that they don't tell the truth.

Lately I had watched the film, known to sailors as "Captain Phillips" . This film is well known to any sailors around the world especially Filipino sailors and believe it or not it was nominated on the Oscars, this film was based on the height of Somali piracy few years back. In this c...

TRAINING DAY

Image
My enrollment kit , basically a polo shirt, a piece of enrollment paper and a book (or manual)  STCW 2010 implementation is really making things worse, for Filipino sailors. Much worse is that for a typical sailor , all of his / her expensive training seminars will be totally nullified by the year 2016 and he / she will start from scratch again . This will be my situation a year after now. In the meantime , things are starting to get dire for me on the money. As predicted my reserve are near depletion and will be borrowing money soon. Since I'm already low on the money, I went ahead in enrolling a BTOC course in PNTC and used up my remain 10k to enrol on the important short course, when I got there I found out that PNTC now offers package prices for their short course on ship tankers. Taking GTF (now BTOCT) short course maybe exciting to take for new sailors, and college students , but for veteran sailors such as myself, this is only a waste of time, money and effort. In the first ...
