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 2008, and now I am a three-tube ship with a monthly salary of 2000 dollars. When I was on the boat, I saw that the driver wore glasses (less), and both the old rail and the big tube wheel in my boat wore glasses. I didn't see that they earned 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 occupations with high self-elimination rate (earning some money to work ashore). There is a shortage of senior crew. How can we discriminate? Even if it's 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 the whole company, and there are probably thousands of crew members. It is almost impossible for everyone to be a supervisor in the company. I suggest you become a sailor. You should go out when you are young. When you have savings, you won't have to work hard all your life. The crew's salary is net, and there are pocket money such as labor expenses and cabin cleaning expenses. Be an officer if you want, find a formal training base, and don't be fooled by some black intermediaries. About 50 thousand, depending on the intermediary, you can pass the exam a few times Tuition is not a big problem. As long as I get the certificate, I can make money on the ship soon. I earned 1 1 more than a month on the boat this time, and I feel good. I plan to go out again next year at home and have more than four months' holiday. I suggest you apply for the position of officer.

Question 2: Is it good to be a sailor with professional characteristics? Seafarers are a high value-added labor export business, which has the characteristics of high exchange rate and quick recovery, and has played an active 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, and seafarers have become an indispensable occupation. 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. Ship types generally include bulk carriers, container ships, liquefied cargo ships, ro-ro ships and cruise ships. The areas where ships sail include coastal navigation areas, offshore navigation areas and global navigation areas. 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 treatment: According to national regulations, the crew members enjoy basic benefits such as full insurance, labor insurance and annual leave. The income of seafarers depends on the type, size, route and other specific conditions of the ship. At present, the average salary of senior crew members' third crew members and third crew members is 12000- 16000 yuan/month, while that of ordinary crew members' sailors and mechanics is about 3000-7000 yuan/month. With the increasing scarcity of crew members and the vigorous development of navigation, this salary is still increasing. View original post >>

Question 3: Has anyone ever been a sailor? How are you? Hello.

Generally speaking, this job is acceptable as long as you are not neurotic. Here, I think it is necessary to correct some laymen's views on seafarers' certificates. The so-called triviality depends on what kind of person this person is in hobbies. If you don't know what fun is and how to have fun, it's to live in a crowd, live in a busy city and watch the Internet all the time with your mobile phone. Life is also boring. 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 and so on. In addition, many ports have seamen's clubs, in which various fitness and entertainment facilities are relatively complete, and Internet access is generally free. Fixed telephones are very cheap. Wireless network cards and SIM cards are sent to ships by agents in many countries. International long-distance calls only cost 1-2 cents or even a few cents per minute. Hehe, sometimes my neck hurts when I call. QQ hangs up 24 hours, which is quite cool. As for the treatment, it depends on your position. The salary of general officers is 10-20 times that of general officers. Can't say whether it is good or not. Mainly depends on the management of routes and ships. The quality and quantity of many short-distance meals are much better than that of ordinary families. The sea is bitter and there are few fresh vegetables, but fruits, milk, beer, all kinds of meat, all kinds of fish, all kinds of seafood and condiments are still very rich. It is normal for a good chef to cook more than a dozen dishes for everyone during the Spring Festival. Of course, these daily treatments also have a lot to do with the shipping company you serve. Judging from the distance of sailing, the first year of internship at home or abroad is usually a whole year or even more than one or two months. In the second year, you can't surf the internet for five or six months. If the phone is close to land, there will be a signal. As for how to do it, it is clear according to your position on it. The welfare benefits are also better. It would be best if I could work in a new ship. Generally speaking, working on it is more difficult than working on land. If you have a family, I suggest not going. If you are young, you can get an objective income from it and lay the foundation for the future. It's hard for the crew, but the premise is that it depends on what ship you board, and there are few opportunities to provide fresh vegetables on it except seafood caught at sea. I spend most of my time on the boat, and the fun of life is very narrow. I don't know if these words will help you, hehe, good luck.

Question 4: Is the crew good? Seafarers are divided into officers and ordinary crew members. Ordinary crew members are trained on board for about 4 months, and their positions are sailors or mechanics, with a monthly salary of several thousand RMB; Senior crew training, junior college graduation training passed the research in one year, and the company assigned to board the ship. The high school graduation training passed the research in three years, and the company assigned to board the ship, with thousands of dollars a month. The salaries of inland river, near ocean, ocean and different navigation areas are different. Tuition: thousands of ordinary crew members; Tens of thousands of officers. Regarding 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.

Competency certificate, that is, proficiency certificate, is mainly used to decide maritime majors. Regarding the 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, Shandong HNA School is cheap, and the recommendation is relatively simple. If you are not a college graduate, it is recommended to attend a three-year school.

Question 5: Is it good to be a sailor? Fishing boats are bitter. They are really devils. Their wages are definitely not as high as 10 thousand, but they are definitely much lower than those of cargo ships.

Boarding a container ship or a cargo ship requires a lot of certificates, and the training cost is about seven or eight thousand, because there are too many crew members now.

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

My suggestion is to give priority to land transportation, then container ships, and the worst is fishing boats.

Question 6: Is it good to be a sailor? Dude, you're a senior, right? The first thing I want to tell you is that you must be careful in choosing your major.

I think the agent probably told you how good the salary is as a sailor. That's true. The salary of being a sailor is not low. For example, the monthly salary of Grade A Third Mate is about $2,300. Depending on the ship type, if it is a special ship such as an oil tanker, the salary is about 3000 dollars, and you can travel around the world for free ... You must be a little tempted to see this. In fact, it is because of his kindness 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 dangerous. The higher the salary, the greater the risk. Take oil tankers as an example, most of them are crude oil, and their radioactivity and volatility have negative effects on human body. Other ships are relatively less harmful, but sailing on the ocean is unpredictable because there are too many uncertain factors, such as typhoons and big waves. These may take a long time to adapt, but if you want to work on the ship for a long time, many other factors are hard to say. There are many steel cables on the deck, and some of them are careless when collecting taxes. It is no exaggeration to say that if you don't pay attention at ordinary times, which cable is not properly tied, it will split in half when it hits someone in a mess. Usually in deck work, some painting and rust removal work is inevitable. A big wave came, and sometimes people fell into the sea as soon as the boat tilted. Maybe you think you are an officer and there is little danger on the bridge, but when there are few people, the puppets on it have to do it by themselves, from internship to full-time driver for a year. After one year, you only have this qualification, but it is up to the company to decide whether to be a driver and the corresponding salary. . .

The third is that the ship is isolated from the outside world, and it is common to be unable to disembark for three to five months. That's why many people end up in this business. Imagine the significance of making 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 forums of seafarers.

And the shipping market. The arrival of the financial crisis bears the brunt of the shipping industry as a window industry! The trade between countries has decreased significantly, and the number of ships calling at major ports such as Singapore, Shanghai, Dalian and Yantai has increased significantly. Orders from domestic shipyards have been greatly reduced. There are fewer ships, but under 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 would be better if the unified recruitment examination is an undergraduate course, at least there will be various diplomas in the future. If it's what the intermediary said, it's probably a three-year training, and there will only be a diploma for adult education. If you are a junior college student, you can only get a diploma. 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 20,000 to 30,000.

The shipping market is very depressed now, so you should weigh the risks and benefits. If you are a senior three, you can be admitted to 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 boring. Especially when you have a home in the future, your wife will miss you and be gentle and coquettish on every phone call. At that moment, when you want to fly back and can't, you will feel how sad and impatient it is to be a sailor!

Question 8: What about the crew? LZ, don't be eccentric. I am an international sailor and a cadre crew member. This year, there are many crew members, but they are not so scarce. I mean, look what you're doing now. If you have a stable job now and earn about 3000 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 many people. There are a lot of crew training now, and you can find it by searching for "training ordinary crew" on the internet, and there are all of them. Do you want to sail 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. Swimming is all right. No one will go to sea for nothing. But in this business, you'd better. Of course, no one wants to use it.

I don't recommend you anyway. 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. Go ahead if you want. Not much better than land.

Question 9: Is it good to be a sailor? There are two ways to recruit seafarers. One is that foreign companies come to China to recruit workers, and the other is that companies in China recruit workers to work on 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 don't know how your deposit was agreed. During the bidding process, are you worried that you will change your mind halfway, or is it a deposit after work? If it is the deposit in the bidding process, it will naturally be returned to you after all the formalities are completed, or it will offset the expenses you have to pay. The salary of ocean shipping is very high, there must be 10 thousand yuan. As for work, is it dangerous? Of course there is danger. Are you good at swimming? Are you physically fit? 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, 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 6000-8000 varies from place to place.
