Did you choose west coast on your first tour?

I didn't choose anything that's what they gave me. Msc you don't chose where you go they tell you where you are going.

How long are tours normally and do you have to work for that ship again or is more contractual?

[@MikeMills1]

My company they will send you wherever they need you. And for whatever position they hired you for. And also you are one obligated 4 months but that doesn't mean you will get off in time if you do want to leave. Amd also you can stay longer if you want to stay.

. cloud storage for pics and vids - you lose or damage that external drive, all those pics are gone . - its good for accessing when there's no internet access though - .

I’m waiting on my MMC, what are good companies to apply for? I’n fresh out of mariner school.

[@MikeMills1]

Like maritime academy or like what kind if maritime school cuz if you are an officer you can virtually go anywhere

[@Monypwrespect]

[@MikeMills1]

@najeeowens4920 oh. I mean it's good to have but most bigger companies going to make you go to those classes over again a anyways. If I were you I'd just start applying for jobs.

[@MikeMills1]

Try msc, siu, mearsk

[@remmiebrooks]

Hey Mike! New subscriber here and just wanted to know how often the steward department gets to hop off the ship at port? How does all that work if you have to prepare 3 meals a day? Do have like certain times you can go off and explore?

[@MikeMills1]

You can get off the ship everyday if yall are in port. And depending on your position yes.
