>>1841863>>1841916I think I want to try to get into firefighting.
Firefighting class got my dick hard, as well as fire salvages I’ve worked, and the firemen I’ve talked to said I’d fit in.
Living at a firehouse seems like an appealing transition from boats, working a few days at a time. Slowly reading into where to start to get into it.
I’m not going back to commuting 2+ hrs every day, as I did when I took a hiatus from tugs for a year.
>other companies hiring up there They’re all the same? The grass is always greener, but it’s a revolving door of guys I’ve met of going between companies. I’m done with ever doing Alaska. My old lady had a miscarriage years back when I was on a 2 month hitch and all the way in Dutch, which caused me to quit that employer and get harbor/near coastal work.
Nowadays I’m working 2/2 usually, which I really can’t bitch about, except for the fact of all the unpaid OT I work in that time on my off watch. Then throw in the most deck work, as I’m on the captains watch.
>>1841971Give it several hitches, and you’ll eventually get over feeling retarded and like a zombie. Couple hrs of undisturbed REM sleep hitting like an upper.
