Sounds great where do I apply........nah testicles to that, I know the truth.I worked offshore, fly halfway around the world every five weeks, stay in nice hotels, in exotic places, occasionally.
Have port calls or dry docks or shore leave in nice exotic places, occasionally.
Get paid from when you leave home until the day you leave the ship.
Arrive in a hotel in Mexico, Veracruz, to find someone messed the dates up, then stay there two more days, go out getting drunk, despite the curfew because it’s the most dangerous town in Mexico.....then fly to another town, Ciudad Del Carmen, drunk there, hotel there, then helicopter out to the ship next day.
Unfortunately that was my last trip, I got laid off, and retired, and after 23 years I was just beginning to enjoy the job.
Thats the bit I prefer about my job and try to make this happen as much as possible. Within reason - its a tricky balance, getting enough of a rapport with people that they'll use you and not having to talk to anyoneLong distance wagon driving means I rarely have to interact with people, always a perk when you're antisocial...
And I derive endless hours of hilarity from watching the antics of car owners who have little or no idea how to drive .
