About Me:
THANK YOU to my friends whom have made these long voyages less boring. :))
I'm a pretty outgoing person, I'm told I'm "a nice guy". I love learning and talking to people from other countries. I'm free to talk because most of the time I'm stuck on a ship all day.
Everybody seems to be confused when I try to explain my jobs, If you don't want to read a long story, then skip this next section.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I was 16 I was a drop-out so I worked as a bunting skivvy on a commericial freighter. I wanted to get a college degree so at 18 I quit my job and went to the Univarsity of SC. To earn money, my parents wouldn't let me work at a restaurant or a normal job saying it was a waste of my abilities and honor (yeah, right). So, I joined a private security firm and got to pick my own hours (well, weeks) and specialized in mechanics, fixing armored trucks and cars. They sent me to Africa and South America during long breaks from college and in return I'd get a lump sum of money. I loved my job though, it was a lot of fun. After six years of juggling my "job" and school I finally graduated. Now I work as an engineer on a deep-sea salvage ship specializing in demolition. I occaisonally go to Iraq with my friends and comrades whom I work with in the security service.
