I have a favor to ask. My fiancée loves to sail, she doesn't have a ton of
experience, but she really enjoys it. I have been sailing since I was a
young kid, and have quite a bit of experience.

We're both nice, friendly people. I wanted to take her sailing this
weekend, Dec 13 or 14th, as part of her birthday celebration.
Unfortunately, I'm unemployed right now (Interview Tuesday!), and, after
checking prices on charters, I simply can't afford it.

So, here's the question, is anyone sailing out of Dana Point, Newport, or
Long Beach that would like an extra set of hands on board this weekend.
We're good company, and I can promise a really, really good lunch and some
nice beer for anyone who wouldn't mind us tagging along. Again, also I'm a
pretty experienced sailor, so I can definitely be put to work.

If it were Sat, we'd need to be aback by 4 or so, so a morning sail would
work best. Sunday we've got all day.

Thanks,
Geoff Jennings

You might want to try calling some of the local marinas. Occasionally,
there's a charter going, and they could take a couple of extra people.
I'll be down that way the following week, but I'm not sailing, just doing
the relatives thing.

Any man who is unemployed and cannot even afford a
sailing excursion for his fiancée will likely make one
sorry husband. Do your fiancée a favor and get a job.

Stop mooching and stop being so irresponsible. You sound
like a loser to me.

Pay no attention to the uninspired rhetoric.

Geoff,

You should go down to the local Yacht Clubs and look into crewing on
someone else's boat for races. There are always a few boats that need
additional crew for racing. It might be tough at first but once you
get in with the right group and boat it could really work out well-
and they sail every week. I did that for a while before I bought my
boat to learn the ropes- so to speak. Where in So. Cal do you live?

Good Luck!
Rob

No he shouldn't. The man needs to spend every waking
hour getting a job. He should get even a crummy job
while he is looking for something he prefers more.

There is NO excuse to be engaged and to be a lazy
bum more concerned with leisure time activities than
being a responsible productive human being.
