How about being a sailor?

Question 1: Is it good to be a sailor? Are you a sailor upstairs? Don't fool if you don't understand. I am a student of Nantong Shipping College in 28, and now I am a three-tube ship with a monthly salary of 2 dollars. When I was on the boat, I saw drivers wearing glasses (less), the old rails and the big tube wheels on the same boat with me wearing glasses, and I didn't see them earning a penny less, nor did I hear them say that it was not easy to work on the boat. At present, there is a big gap in senior crew, and seafarers are a profession with a high self-elimination rate (earning some money and working ashore). Senior crew are in short supply. How can we discriminate? Even if it is not good, just get a laser photo and take off your glasses? As for large and small companies, I think it depends entirely on the individual. Our company also has big shipowners like Maersk and unknown shipowners. There are only seven or eight supervisors in charge of the whole company, and there are probably thousands of crew members. It is almost impossible for everyone to go to the company as a supervisor. I suggest that you work as a sailor. When you are young, you should venture outside. When you have savings, you don't have to work hard all your life. The crew's wages are net, and there are pocket money such as labor expenses and cabin cleaning expenses. If you want to do it, be an officer, find a formal training base, and don't be fooled by some black intermediaries. It's about 5 thousand yuan, depending on the intermediary, and how many times you can pass the exam. Tuition is not a big problem. As long as I get the certificate, I can earn money on the boat quickly. I have been on the boat for 11 months and earned more than 14 thousand. I feel good. I plan to go out again next year at home, and I have more than four months' holiday. I suggest you apply for the position of officer.

Question 2: Is it good to be a seafarer with professional characteristics? Seafarers are a high value-added labor export business, which has the characteristics of high exchange rate and quick recovery, and plays a positive role in alleviating the employment pressure in urban and rural areas, increasing income and promoting poverty alleviation. With the rapid development of modern navigation technology and the development of global economy, ships have become one of the main means of transportation, seafarers have also become an indispensable occupation, and the demand for seafarers has been in short supply, and seafarers have become one of the high-paying occupations with high income, good welfare and stable work. The types of ships generally include bulk cargo ships, container ships, liquefied cargo ships, ro-ro ships and cruise ships. The areas where ships sail include coastal navigation area, near-ocean navigation area and global navigation area. The certificate held by seafarers determines the type of ship they are qualified for, the navigation area and the income of the crew, the job level and the professional division: according to the job level, seafarers are divided into two categories: senior crew and ordinary crew. Senior crew members are engaged in technical management, with long training period, high cost and high treatment; Ordinary crew members are engaged in general technical work, with short training period and quick results, but low income. According to the professional nature, there are two majors: navigation technology (ship driving) and marine engineering (marine engineering). Navigation technology major is responsible for the maintenance of ship navigation and deck machinery, and marine engineering is engaged in the maintenance and maintenance of ship machinery and equipment. Welfare and treatment: According to national regulations, crew members enjoy basic benefits such as full insurance, labor protection and annual leave. Seafarers' income depends on the type, size, route and other specific conditions of the ship. At present, the average salary of the third mate and the third tube wheel of the senior crew is 12,-16, yuan/month, while that of the ordinary crew is about 3,-7, yuan/month, and it is still growing with the increasing scarcity of crew and the vigorous development of navigation.

question 3: has anyone ever been a sailor? How are you?

. Generally speaking, as long as you are not squeamish, this job is acceptable. Here, I think it is necessary to correct some laymen's views on the job of seaman's certificate. The so-called tedium depends on what kind of person this person is in dealing with hobbies. If you don't know what fun is by nature and how to have fun, it is to live in crowds and downtown areas every day. Life is equally boring when you are guarding the Internet with your mobile phone at all times. There are many things to do after work on board, such as local area network PK, study, reading, watching movies, listening to music, fitness, table tennis, poker, chess, VHF chat, satellite phone, etc. In addition, many ports have seaman's club, in which all kinds of fitness and entertainment facilities are relatively complete, and the Internet is generally free. Fixed-line telephones are very cheap. Wireless network cards and SIM cards are sent to ships by agents in many countries, and international long-distance calls are only 1-2 cents or even a few cents/minute. Hehe, sometimes the neck hurts when you call. QQ hangs up 24 hours, which is quite cool-as for the treatment, it depends on your position. As for food, You can't say whether it's good or not. It mainly depends on the management of routes and ships. The quality and quantity of meals on many shorter routes are much better than those eaten by ordinary families. The ocean is bitter and there are few fresh vegetables, but fruit, milk, beer, various meats, various fish, various seafood and condiments are still very abundant. It is normal for a good chef to cook more than a dozen dishes for everyone during the Chinese New Year holiday. Of course, These daily treatments also have a lot to do with the shipping company you serve. From the distance of sailing, the first-year internship at home or abroad is usually a whole year or even more than one or two months. The second year is usually 5, You can't surf the Internet for six months. If the mobile phone is close to the land, there will be a signal. As for what to do, it is very clear according to your position on it. The welfare benefits are also better. If you can work in a new ship, it is the best. On the whole, the work on it is harder than that on land. If you have a family, I suggest not to go. If you are young, you can get an objective income on it to lay the foundation for the future. It is hard for the crew, but on the premise, it depends on what ship you board, and there are few opportunities to provide fresh vegetables on In addition to seafood caught at sea. I spend most of my time on the boat, and the fun of life is very narrow. I wonder if these words will help you. Hehe, good luck.

Question 4: How are the crew? Seafarers are divided into officers and ordinary crew members. Ordinary crew members are trained to board the ship for about 4 months, and the position is sailor or mechanic, with a monthly salary of several thousand RMB; Senior crew training, college graduation training after one year passed the research, the company assigned to board the ship, high school graduation training after three years passed the research, the company assigned to board the ship, thousands of dollars a month. The salary of inland river, near ocean, ocean and different navigation areas varies. Tuition: thousands of ordinary crew members; Tens of thousands of senior crew members. With regard to employment, shipowners recruit crew members through "intermediaries". Your so-called intermediary is called a shipping company. If you have the ability, you can apply directly to COSCO, otherwise you can only go to the shipping company.

The certificate of competency, that is, the well-known certificate, is mainly used for maritime majors. Regarding the school's first recommendation of Dalian Maritime University and Shanghai Maritime University, the brand's hard competitiveness is of course strong, so the tuition fee is relatively high. Secondly, it is relatively simple to recommend Hainan airlines schools in Shandong for cheap tuition. If you are not a college graduate, it is recommended to study in a three-year school.

Question 5: Is it good to be a crew member? Fishing boats are very bitter, really devil-class, and the salary is definitely not as high as 1,, which is definitely much lower than that of cargo ships.

It takes a lot of certificates to board a container ship, or cargo ship, and the training cost is about seven or eight thousand yuan, because there are too many crew members now.

If you really have a chance to drive a big truck, don't choose to go aboard. Being away from home for a long time has a great impact on your family, and you can't land for a long time. Lack of fresh vegetables also has an impact on your health.

in my suggestion, land transportation is preferred, container ships are second, and fishing boats are the worst.

question 6: is it good to be a sailor? Brother, you are a senior three, right? The first thing to tell you is that you must be careful in choosing your major.

I think the agent probably told you how generous the salary is as a sailor. That's true. The salary of being a seafarer is not low. For example, the third officer of Class A now earns about $2,3 a month. Depending on the ship type, if it is a special ship such as an oil tanker, the salary is about $3,, and you can travel around the world for free ... You must be a little tempted to see this. In fact, it is only because of his goodness that so many people come to be sailors without thinking. Later, many people got on the boat once and quit.

Being a sailor is actually very dangerous. The higher the salary, the greater the risk. Take oil tankers for example, most of them are crude oil, and their radioactivity and volatility all have negative effects on human body. Other ships are relatively less harmful, but sailing on the ocean is unpredictable because of too many uncertain factors, such as typhoons and big waves. These may be adaptable for a long time, but many other factors are hard to say if you want to work on the ship for a long time. There are a lot of steel cables on the deck, and some of them are careless in tax collection. It is no exaggeration to say that if you don't pay attention at ordinary times, which cable is not tied properly, it will split in half as soon as it collapses and hits people. Usually, some painting and rust shoveling work is inevitable in deck work. A big wave hits, and sometimes people fall into the sea as soon as the ship tilts. Maybe you think you are a senior crew member with little danger on the bridge, but when there are few people, those puppets above have to do it by themselves, and it takes one year to be a full-time driver from internship. After one year, you only have this qualification, but it is up to the company to decide whether to be a driver or not and the corresponding salary. . .

Third, the ship is isolated from the outside world, and it is common for people to be unable to disembark for three to five months, which is why many people end up in the business. Imagine what's the point of earning more money and not spending it yourself.

The above statement is not from my family. If you don't believe me, you can check it on the major seafarers' forums.

there is also the shipping market. The arrival of the financial crisis bears the brunt as the window industry shipping industry! Trade between countries has decreased significantly, and ship stops at major ports such as Singapore, Shanghai, Dalian and Yantai have increased significantly. Orders from domestic shipyards have decreased significantly. There are fewer ships, but with the advocacy of various intermediaries and others, many people come to work as seafarers every year, so don't tell me what the result is.

In terms of academic qualifications, it's better if you are an undergraduate in the unified recruitment examination, at least you will have various diplomas in the future. If you are an intermediary, it is likely to be a three-year training, and then you will only have an adult diploma. If you are a junior college student, you can only get a graduation certificate. After coming out, I can only be a sailor. The bank can't change my mind and the training cost is very high. At least 2, to 3, yuan will be paid.

At present, the shipping market is very depressed, so you should weigh the risks and benefits. If you are a senior three, it's ok if you can get into the undergraduate course of this major. If the training is said by the intermediary, you'd better not go.

question 7: is it good to be a sailor? if you have a better way out than being a sailor, try not to get on the boat. Life on the ship is dull and boring. Especially in the future, when you have a home, your wife will miss you and be gentle and coquetry every time on the phone. At that moment, when you want to fly back and can't fly back, you will feel how sad and impatient it is to be a sailor!

question 8: how are the crew? LZ, don't be biased. I am an international sailor and a cadre crew member. This year, there are plenty of crew members, but not so scarce. I mean, look what you're doing now. If you work steadily now and earn about 3 yuan a month, then I advise you not to go boating. Your question about salary is true, but it is still mostly five or six thousand, because there are more people. There are a lot of crew training now, and you can find it by searching "training ordinary crew" on the internet, and there are all of them. You want to run a boat for a month? That's a joke. I have a friend who hasn't returned to China for half a year. The course of the ship is not determined by your homesickness. It doesn't matter about swimming. No one will go to the sea for nothing. But in this line of work, you'd better be able to, of course, no one wants to use it.

in a word, you are not recommended. Since you are tempted, you must weigh the pros and cons yourself. If you have something, you will lose it. Think about your family, wife and daughter. If you are willing, go. It is not much better than land.

question 9: is it good to be a sailor? There are two ways to recruit seafarers who go to sea. One is that foreign companies come to China to recruit, and the other is that companies in China recruit workers to work in foreign ships, which is similar to labor services. If it is a labor service company, of course, you need to call for a deposit. I wonder how your deposit is agreed? Is it during the bidding process, worried about your change of mind halfway, or the deposit after you work? If it is the deposit in the bidding process, it will be returned to you naturally after all the formalities are completed, or it will offset the expenses you have to pay. The wages of foreign ships are very high, and there must be ten thousand yuan. As for work, is it dangerous? Of course there are dangers. Are you good at swimming? Is your physical strength good? Will you be strong? Working at sea, not to mention the sudden storm, sometimes floating on the high seas for a month or two, except for your colleagues, it is very hard. Any high salary comes at a price. Especially the high salary with low technical content requires you to pay hardships that ordinary people can't imagine. The price of 6-8 varies from place to place.
