>>847419Nothing against "nights and mornings stuck on a ship in the middle of nowhere, no schedule flexibility, no proximity to family/friends" for half of the year.
Salary cap is about $600-1k DAILY for a captain. I'm totally fine with that. Although I would prefer working on land, but find me a job that pays $60k base/90-140k with overtime ($50/hr) straight out of college with just a bachelor's and a license.
Pic related, a mariner anon posted his 2 week paycheck. Pretty sure he's a 2nd officer w/ MSC and at the time was staying at a nice hotel in Singapore while waiting for shit to get done, and getting paid for that.
