>>1110504I don't think so. I don't think any of those guys are union. Only company that I know off the top of my head that's based in the Gulf and has a SIU contract is G&H Towing. Don't quote me on that, though.
>>1110539Very nice. I got a sailing job about a month after I joined while a lot of my fellow cadets were still waiting to get a shot on an OSV. MEBA might only have like 7 or 8 ships with deck contracts, but it's a very friendly union and very much on your side. Job call is very open (and not backdoor shipping as fuck like AMO), and I think it's safe to say MEBA is the "best" of all the unions in the industry. They're on the level, they don't strike, and they still have a pension plan on top of medical benefits.
