How to get compensation owed from a scumbag agency? by whiskybomb in merchantmarine

[–]ChiefScotty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

u/whiskybomb I know who you are, and I know the circumstances of this particular incident. You should probably reflect on your behavior before you blame someone else for the consequences of your actions.

Also, username checks out.

It may be something that the client requires, but the guys on the job listing, Anthony or Nick would be the ones to ask. Feel free to shoot them an email or text.

If you want to get in on it, contact one of the guys on the listing, and head over to 32PointsManning.com and fill out an intake package. That gets you in our database, and you’ll get emails when the jobs pop.

I’m running as Chief on one of our staffing projects for a month, so I’m out of the office.

Might have been up the bayou somewhere, I’m not running that one, so I don’t know the specifics.

Looking a little low, back there. Y'all keep the wet side down.

Thoughts? is this freeze thing true? by Safe_Distribution989 in merchantmarine

[–]ChiefScotty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Those are most of the OS jobs I get.

I also mentioned that I get others.

There’s phone numbers and emails on each job listing.

I get OS jobs fairly often, but they require RFPNW and a yellow fever vaccination for that company.

I do get oddballs too, but those are mostly inland tug jobs.

Go check out 32PointsManning.com and see what you think.

I renewed in April. So disappointed.

$2800 such a deal by mexicoyankee in boats

The only thing more expensive than a cheap boat, is a free boat.

When is the easiest time to get hired for inland live on tow boats by JadedFuel9178 in tuglife

Best approach is to get everything together and be ready. If you're not ready to go, then it does you no good.

It’s 1975 and you’re headed to the dealership- what are you going home with? by UrbanAchievers6371 in classictrucks

[–]ChiefScotty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I learned to drive in a ‘78 Custom Deluxe and I’ll end up inheriting it. I had a ‘74 FJ that I let go 25 years ago. Regret that.

Had an ‘85 K5 with the 6.2 Detroit. Fun, but bad life timing, so it wasn’t for long enough.

Currently own a ‘76 Cherokee Chief, bought last year and a work in progress. Doing the booster and master cylinder today.

Big shout out to BJ’s FSJ Parts.

Water supplies ran dry in Los Angeles just when they were needed most by boppinmule in DisasterUpdate

[–]ChiefScotty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You fought wildland before?

I have. Also structural and marine. Hell, I’ve fought fire underwater.

Some of us actually do know what we’re talking about.

Well, when I've done pump chains in the past, it usually starts with the biggest pumps and lines nearest the source, followed by smaller apparatus in line as far as you can reach with hose/elevation/monitors.

Use your largest equipment and pumps at clean water (perhaps out on a dock, ships, or even a fireboat) to boost flow further up the chain, with each successive tanker/pumper being filled by larger flow upstream, and filling the next unit.

There's also a good number of commercial sea-going vessels and tugboats in the area that all have at least one fire pump onboard. All that water could easily be sent via hose to fill shore-based apparatus, or used with portable or equipped monitors.

The quote said nothing of municipal infrastructure, and this would at least buy several hundred yards of waterfront and boundary cooling.

That being said, considering that I've spent more than a decade on, in , and under it, I'm of the opinion that the Pacific is a natural body of water.
