While I love the joking in the comments section, I can’t help but feel a bit sad.
I’d give almost anything for another sea going posting.
Having had bath with partially filtered sea-water once, I’d rather not.
I used to be a farmer and I made a living fine
I had a little stretch of land along the CP line
But times were tough and though I tried, the money wasn’t there
'Til bankers came and took my land and told me “Fair is fair.”I looked for every kind of job, the answer always “no.”
“Hire you now?” they’d laugh and say, “We just let forty go.”
The government, it promised me a measly little sum
But I’ve got too much pride to end up just another bum.But I thought, who gives a damn if all the jobs are gone.
I’m gonna be a pirate on the river Saskatchewan!I don’t know the tune, but it works to Banned from Argo.
Nice try IDF
I could play a cajon, would that work?
What if the treasure still belongs to someone?

That’s what those hatches on the lower deck are for
Literally the only thing that would prevent me from saying yes is the lack of air conditioning.
I can not tolerate the heat, at all
You have to account for the sea breeze.
Not enough for me.
edit
To Be clear, I have a medical intolerance to heat. Its not about comfort.
just dip in the water a bit
consults wellerman lyrics
hard pass
If we have a right to choose the captain I’m sold.
That musical instrument list is a joke! No squeeze boxes? No woodwind? No percussion?
No hornpipe. I’m out
Honestly, rope blisters don’t seem as bad as what I’m working with rn.
Do they offer free limes in the office?
Gotta keep that scurvy away somehow
The fact that there’s a performance based profit share is a huge draw
Also, if I remember correctly, the crew votes on the captain prior to setting sail and there are mechanisms in place to replace the captain if they aren’t performing well enough.
I know this is a shit post, but you really can voluteer to sail the world with the Nao Santa María,

I’ve been on it a while back, beautiful ship.
A bucket list item of mine is to go on a training ship. I was eyeing up this one https://sailtraininginternational.org/vessel/statsraad-lehmkuhl/.
Aaand bookmarked. 100% going on my list of stuff to do.
Too bad you don’t get paid for it (in fact, you have to pay for it yourself).
I hate my job, but at least I don’t have all the scars in my body unheal and open up.
we have lemons onboard
