I know all that confined space safety stuff without having to search it on
the Internet.


Jail cell




Yup, I'm posting from a jail cell right now. That anonymous remailer stalker
got me arrested. He was just sooooo convincing.

I did not make it sound like that, you assumed.

And yes a proper breathing apparatus (forced air hoods) are required
in the mud tanks as most mud is petro based. I said you have to "Suit
up" to go into the tanks bonehead, pay attention Im not talking about
a gray pin stripe.


Are you using oil based mud in the gulf now? Over here there is very
little used, or at least it is not usually used, as it costs more and
generally the formations found do not require it. In addition most
countries in the area are now, more of less, environmentally conscious
so the days of just dumping the mud tanks is pretty well over.

By the way, I find that snipping Willy's comments contributes to the
intellectual quotient of the conversation :-)

We could never dump mud, if they over bought they would take back
what was never used. I'm not sure what kind stuff they are mixing
these days, it would change weekly to what ever was the best thing
going. We hauled stuff that looks and feels like heavy runny snot to
boat loads of black magic. I think the gulf is getting pretty tight on
any type of discharge, and it's been awhile since I hung around with
any drilling fluid folks.

Not to be too noisy but what is the pay scale on a work boat? A day
rate for days worked? Or hourly? Monthly?



I was hired as an OS at $150/day. From what I understand that is
typical pay for unlicensed people.

ABs get $240-$320 per day

I was told Im off to another boat and will be filling an AB spot
there. I guess they wanted to see if an old guy could cut it. guess I
did.


Ill be starting $260/day as AB with this company

*You mean a 300 ton boat right? A supply boat? Do you know the name of
the boat?


Nope......... actually about 1300 GRT


I can't think of any 1,600 ton boats working in the Gulf, unless your
going to work for NOAA, or on a semi underway or perhaps a smaller
drill ship.


there are several 1600 ton boats and a few UL in deep.

Im NOT on an OSV or a crewboat or utility or a sismic or a NOAA or
semi..........
Humm I wonder whats left????



*What's the name of the boat you are on now?

Dont want to say

Who's it buildt by?

Master Boat Builders
2001

Who you guys working for?


The boat delivers services for companies.

*Supply boats have cement and mud tanks Bob. I warned you!

PS Sorry for the dis-Bob.

After allIm sure your forked out thousands of dollars in school to
obtain the rank of OS

After reading your responces to the questions I figured out I should
have never asked you them as you do not know.

After all the Capatin has most likely not shared any of that kind of
information with you.

Let me see if I can ask some questions you might be able to answer.

Do you AJAX or Comet in the ****ters?
Can you still get that good brasso with the cotton ?
Are your paint brushes made with synthetic or natural brissles?

Well that about covers it.

Yeah I have to roast coffee for a couple of grocery stores a resturant
and a couple of corporate accounts.
Have a presentation to get together for a national family diner chain
bashed here in Houston.

I will have to admin my Job board, as you can imagine it's been very
busy. It's been on line since 1997.
lightboard.com

And I own a recruiting firm (hence the email addy incase you never
figured it out) and, have to prep a young fellow for an interview
Monday.

Also I have a mile of Teak on my boat that needs a new coat of
varnish, maybe I can find some dumb out of work fellow from the PNW to
do it for me for a few bucks.

PS BOB

One last thing before I go to listen to the band at the Boardwalk
with friends, then maybe out on the bay for a quick moonlight cruise.

I dont have to rush to bed because I will not have a dispacher
screaming to get under a crane ot 03:30. Or a Captain telling me the
****ters need scrubbed again. Might sleep in late if I feel like it.
I work were I want and when I want.

I do not have to drive across the country to work because I take
chances.
Moved into the .com before the bubble burst and we are still going
strong, after many failed.
Owned a shrimp boat, failed at it
Opened a recruiting firm, still going strong after many many firms
have failed.
Had a 1,600 masters at 24 and left the industry for better money and a
better lifestyle.
Just started a coffee company that has a goal to bring back sail
transport, and the company is growing while others like Starbucks are
dropping like flies.

So you keep on making your smart ass comments about my losing
RedCloud and her cargo of coffee and I will keep doing or trying to
develope the worlds best career for myself. I will be master of a next
generation coffee clipper, providing 100's of thousands of people with
the freshest best tasting coffee in America, and in doing so will
reduce this country dependence on oil from places like Iraq. I'm going
to live my dream, it's just a bit different than scrubbing ****ters.

I only responded to you hoping to provide you help in prusing your
dream career of scrubbing ****ters, I'll seldom bother again as you
want to play the role of an asshole sock like Nellie.

You keep joking about a coffee slick douchebag, I brought my crew to
shore alive and well, and I'm smart enough to be very grateful for
that. I've know many that have not been so lucky, you keep with it,
you will too.

Who knows Bob, maybe some night soon I will be sailing a three masted
clipper through the oilfield you are tending. I'll be on my way to
somewhere exotic, tropical, a real paradise and passage full of
adventure, while you hang off a bouy scrubbing ****ters. Two dream
worlds passing in the night!

Aint life grand?

Adios Pandeho.

Java Joe
