I am a maritime deck officer. Been employed in the industry for 15 years. Ask any questions. I have job openings.

Just because you can, do you ever go pee off of the bow while underway ?

I avoid ham. And pork. When i am home ( off ship) i eat organic. But aboard the ship i eat what is available.

On rare occasion i do pee off the side of the vessel although it is illegal. But some rules were meant to be broken and i'm sure many fish do more damage than i ever will. In mid ocean i am permitted to flush many thousands of gallons of raw human waste. Which i do. The Navy jettisons more than you want to know.

You shouldn't poop where you live.

Unless you're from another planet, please remember that the next time you flush in the pond.

Most ships are roughneck environments that require real men. Queers don't apply to these jobs and if they do they get weeded out fast.

Most guys out here are hard working fathers and husbands. Or young bucks with a different girl in each port.

Go to your nearest coast guard station and acquire the two credentials you'll need. An MMC (Merchant Mariner Credential) and a TWIC ( Transportation Workers ID Card). Take a drug test. Get FBI background check. Get job. Takes two weeks. Easy process.

A hundred or so for each credential last I checked. Total cost about $250.

A starting deckhand job on a ship pays about $300 per day with full benefits.

Have you ever seen a UFO and/or USO whilst at sea? How about a 'ghost' ship?

Do you get to see many of the places, as a tourist, that you dock at...or are you always on the ship?
