I thought you bought one lol

Looks Nice, Are you working on getting your Tanker Man?

Yep hopefully in a few months I'll have enough transfers

You need a bigger trolling motor

Nice view!

wheres the fishin poles?? sometimes you southern hillbillies leave me dismayed

# 2 crude?

Yes sirr

Actually not 100% sure tow was already made up when I got on. And this crew seems to prefer the whole out of site out of mind deal when it comes to deckhands so guess we'll find out when we get to wherever where going. Odd but of leadership in here I gotta say....seems like I always get that on new jobs

Nice

Good Deal

Might be a bit of keep the new guy out from under foot so he doesn't get himself hurt first day on the job going on there. The whole FNG thing, maybe.

You hired on full time now?

Yes sir

Congratulation!

Where you headed? If you're ever up the Ohio across southern Indiana shoot me a message.

Always thought that would be a cool job.

Some unsolicited advice. Stay the course, do what they ask you to do, listen and learn. You are probably there for a reason good or bad which you will find out soon enough . You are starting on the bottom and that is always the worst place to be. Enjoy the scenery and thanks for bring us along.

Well that's the thing the guy over me I work with will barley talk to me the out entire 7hr shift. I mean I get not talking for conversation but he like doesn't say anything. And I'm constantly asking stuff like " hay what are we about to do " hay what's the plan for today " "want me to sweep or mop" "what's frequency we running ?" and most of it is just met with silence mabye a barely audible mumble if I'm lucky. Like no communication . I'm trying to be helpful and not a annoying and I get getting a feel for the new guy but idk I'm getting a weird vibe here compared to the other tow boats I've helped on and crews we've been meeting.
But he's not really making life hard or anything so guess I can't complain too much. Definitely have spent longer doing more work with people alot worse
That being said though some of these older guys riding over have been complimenting me alot . The old engineer fella said he'd love to have me working with him if I ever get bored of snatching wires I'm making the most of it regardless, will also say, had frog legs for the first time in forever today in the galley. Boy that was a nice treat
