I actually called Swire today. When vessels dock they often take on lube oils. We supply lube oils and I schedule deliveries...

hrmm, now if your going back, do you think things will get better? or after a while your going to get sick of it again.

i finally did it after months of pain and suffering and stressing about it.

right now im doing NOTHING. its the best job ive ever had
if only i could stay doing this for ever but i know i cant.

ive been spending my time watching tv, drinking shit loads of beer (which im getting very good at if i do say so myself), playing guitar and surfing.

Im living the f**king dream.
