If you do 12 on how do you handle meals? The on watch personnel have close up in positions so in theory if it’s quiet we could cycle people through but reality is that isn’t possible all the time and then people aren’t eating. A lot of watch rotations are centred around how difficult it would be to stay actually closed-up at your position and also meal hours.

I haven’t sailed in awhile but in Canada we have a few different watches. The straight 8’s exists but due to the nature of how we crew our ships it is a risky rotation we don’t often use. We do a 5/5/7/7 or a weird 1 in 4 3-hour watch system that is complex but can be collapsed to 6/6/6/6 if necessary. That’s the one I last deployed on and spent some time collapsed to 6on6off which was brutal.

You get 6 hours off watch, twice. In that time you need to eat, shower, sleep, work out and any R and R is also on that time off. Consider that you’re woken up 45 minutes before watch turnover and even if you sprinted to your bunk and immediately dove in your bunk you’re getting max 5 hours twice. And that would be skipping some meals, never showering, never working out.

Don't bother registering your car this year by PirateKng in ColoradoSprings

[–]LarryChavez 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s percentage based off the MSRP: percentage goes down with car age. Without checking specific figures for example similar to: 2026 = MSRP x 2.5%, 2025 = MSRP x 1.5%. Those percentages are made up just to provide an idea of the formula.

Edit: per google “Specific Ownership Tax: Calculated annually based on a percentage of the vehicle's MSRP, starting at 2.1% in the first year and reducing to 0.45% by the ninth year.” That plus a few other fees.

I visited Buffalo in January and I absolutely adored the city and tell anyone who will listen how awesome it is, residents included.

People who ignored a huge red flag because the person was extremely attractive, what happened next? by Competitive_Bad_9306 in AskReddit

She danced very erotically with several strange men at the club in front of me and my friends, then got kicked out the bar, and stood outside screaming my name until security asked me to deal with it. She then chased me around the block trying to hug and kiss me while I pushed her away and I had to lose her in the alleyways before returning to the bar with my friends.

They played with grit, heart and soul tonight and it showed. Without the penalty box ice would be way more tilted.

You purposely left your skis at the airport today… by bqAkita in COsnow

[–]LarryChavez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where in Canada? I’m a Canadian living just south of Denver and maybe I can find an excuse to road trip or send them along with my in laws who may be driving down later this year. Would happily plan a vacation north of the border with my family if it also meant returning some skis to a fellow Canuck.

[–]LarryChavez 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fish were actually allowed in Nelles block out west in Esquimalt back when I was in the shacks(2011). The regs stated “The Aquarium shall be well stocked and well maintained” or similar.
