Why not become a merchant mariner?
I am a merchant mariner
Its a fucking boring job, uninteresting as fuck and most ships have dogshit facilities

Do people fish (angling) off the sides of the boat? Is that a thing?
even better, become a submariner

I get seasick every trip and I'm getting too old to tough through it. I have hobbies I can't realistically pursue at sea
I had an amazing experience and I do recommend it but I'm not going back to see until I truly give up on ever settling on land.

Not him but ships are generally moving far too fast for a line to fool anything in the water. It's the equivalent of us eating a poisoned burger that was hurtling past us at 20 knots.

This seems like the most robot military job

how fit do you have to be?

and how to I become one?

Unless something goes wrong. At least if a tradiitonal ship sinks you have a chance of survival. If the sub sinks, well I hope you enjoy either drowning in a giant steel casket or being suddenly crushed by 30 atm of water pressure.
Because the u-boat menace is real and if they put me on an ammunition ship you can kiss my ass goodbye.

Is there a place to charge your cellphone on a ship?

How fucking retarded are you, of course there is.
>>28674989
I'm trying. Have to wait until next fucking year before they start hiring. Might get an interview in winter and then it starts the following spring.

I was just wondering if I had a place to charge my game boy.

Yep, don't have much luck fish generally tend to avoid vessels. Dolphins swim around ships tho.

Not fit at all, engineers have got to be able to walk around and work with tools and withstand 40-50 degree heat in the E/R. You see some real fat lazy fucks working at sea tho.

I did a cadetship, basically an apprenticeship where you understudy crew and eventually take the exam to get your lisence.
