Are you tired of being a sailor?

Very tired, it depends on your adaptability. Here are some references:

With the gradual implementation of WTO provisions, the overseas seafarers' service industry, which has been dealing with the international shipping industry for a long time, will face new challenges. As a China seaman who has served in this industry for many years, I sincerely hope that the relevant government departments will not miss this rare opportunity, get rid of conservative ideas, make great efforts to reform and innovate, formulate and revise relevant laws and regulations as soon as possible, actively adapt to the operating practices of the international shipping industry and the world seafarers' labor market, and compete for the international seafarers' labor market that should be dominated by China. This will benefit the country and the people.

So how far is the industry from the international market? From my personal point of view, it must be expounded from the following three aspects.

First, the disharmony of national policies and regulations is the most fundamental and important. At present, China's foreign-related laws and regulations on the management of the maritime industry are still stipulated by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, and foreign enterprises are not allowed to intervene or participate in a limited and conditional manner; In the aspect of labor intermediary, people are even turned away and replaced by domestic intermediary. What will be the result of this practice of actually monopolizing the industry in order to protect its own interests? Statistics show that the number of seafarers sent abroad in China is close to 30,000 every year, and among these 30,000 seafarers, I am afraid that less than one-tenth of them actually join the multinational seafarers. Most of them compete for a part of the shipowners' market in Southeast Asia in the form of low prices for the whole team, but it is difficult to set foot in the vast European and American markets. The figures not only reflect the international status of China seafarers, on the other hand, foreign shipowners' impressions and treatment of China seafarers show that the status of China seafarers is only slightly better than that of several poor African countries after the Philippines, India and Eastern Europe. This situation is obvious in several major domestic seafarers' agencies, such as MASES (Beijing Zhonghai), INMATESECO (Dalian International) and COSCO (COSCO). I don't think this situation is commensurate with China's current image as a big country and its international status. The fundamental reason is that the country has been over-regulated in this field for a long time, paying no attention to it and not seeking development. Looking back at our competitors, the Philippines can be said to be an old exporter of seafarers. Up to now, the annual export volume of seafarers has remained at 200,000-300,000, occupying an absolute position in the world market. According to the information obtained from contact, it is easier for their crew to board the ship abroad, and they only need to register with some internationally renowned seafarers' agencies. The function of the state is only manifested in supervision and management; The emigration of a large number of laborers not only eased the domestic employment pressure, increased the country's foreign exchange reserves and taxes, but also enriched the lives of ordinary people. It can be said that this is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone and gain both fame and fortune. Let's take a look at the rising eastern European countries, such as Poland. It is much more convenient and faster for their sailors to find shipowners and apply for certificates than ours. From the shipowner's point of view, whoever can provide a crew with good quality, who is efficient and quick to respond, will use the crew. Therefore, the relative lag of policies and the consciousness of self-protection and self-isolation embodied in some laws and regulations deprive China of many opportunities to communicate with developed countries in Europe and America in the maritime industry. It can be said that there is almost no place for China seafarers in the seafarers' labor market in these areas. In my opinion, as long as China does not improve its foreign policy in this field, introduce a competitive mechanism, break the monopoly of the industry and form a talent flow. It is difficult to enter the mainstream market in Southeast Asia and the vast market in Europe and America in one day. In addition, it is worth mentioning that if China wants to push its seafarers to the international market in the future, relevant international organizations such as ITF (International Transport Union) or SIU (International Seamen's Union) will have to deal with them sooner or later, and some relevant international conventions and norms on labor treatment and rights protection will inevitably be observed. Because you don't contact, integrate and abide by the rules, you will be excluded and you won't get the corresponding international status.

Second, China's intermediary institutions need to be rectified urgently, because they are too irregular, and there is a certain degree of black-box operation and the resulting corruption. Once foreign intermediaries join in the future, I believe their situation will be very difficult. In terms of management style and service consciousness, there are essential differences between domestic intermediaries and foreign ones. Having dealt with several large domestic intermediaries, I deeply feel that the original team is the primary productive force, the subject of creating value, and it can also be said to be the "cash cow" in the eyes of intermediaries. But in fact, most intermediaries do not correct this relationship, but pretend to be "masters" in management and do whatever they want, regardless of legitimacy and the feelings of the majority of seafarers; In terms of service, it is far from international practice. For example, for so many years, I have never seen any agency show the crew the employment contract it signed with foreign shipowners and the relevant crew welfare terms, and I don't know our real "price". In other words, we don't know how much they "sold" us. This is not commensurate with the practice of formal intermediary companies in the world to clearly mark prices. This kind of covert action has greatly harmed the interests of seafarers. At present, the common practice of most seafarers' agencies in China is to collect the management fee paid by the shipowner on the one hand, and sign a contract with the dispatched crew privately on the other hand, paying only 50%-70% of the original contract salary to the crew. This practice is far from the internationally accepted principle that shipowners give as many crew members as possible, and its harm is obvious. The crew has a lot of opinions, but there is nowhere to complain. They work passively on the ship and try their best to find financial resources. Shipowners are not satisfied. Once there are problems in operation, causing losses to shipowners, they will consider choosing high-priced crew members from other countries to replace them. In addition, in recent years, overseas seafarers have generally signed false payrolls, international inspections are blind, and overseas complaints have increased, which has adversely affected the national image and brought unnecessary international troubles. Moreover, due to the defects of management system and the lack of supervision mechanism, the crew had to give gifts to the guests on board and bribe officials; Intermediaries also openly use their rights to blackmail the crew. Over time, the impression of foreign shipowners on China seafarers is that they are poor in quality, do not work hard and do not strive for progress.

Third, the comprehensive quality of overseas seafarers needs to be improved urgently. Having contacted seafarers in the Philippines and Eastern Europe, I feel that there is still a big gap between us. This is manifested in three aspects, one is the lack of English communication ability and ship safety contingency ability. I think this is also an important reason why it is difficult for China seafarers to enter the international market. Compared with seafarers in other countries, this is our "congenital deficiency". Although Chinese college students are ahead of them in the study of professional theory, they are still out of touch with reality in the practical application of professional English or daily English, and the crew's safety precautions and emergency handling capabilities are insufficient. Second, the sense of professionalism and obedience is poor. In the past, we had little contact with the outside world, and our sense of "ownership" was too strong. But it's different now. If we want to earn other people's money, we must abide by their rules and obey their management. This is the "international practice". Serious and responsible work and hard work are the most basic qualities of international seafarers. Third, learn to get along with multinational crew members and enhance their adaptability. On a real overseas ship, it is particularly important to have a good relationship with foreign leaders and colleagues, because competition will inevitably lead to various problems. Only by maintaining a harmonious working and living environment and living in harmony can we complete the task.

To sum up, although there are so many thorny difficulties, and the cost of solving these problems may be high, efforts may not be effective in a short time, but we really have no better way to go. It is enough to prove that China people can overcome obstacles on their own. Facing the favorable opportunities in the international seafarers' labor market at present and in the future, we can't hesitate any longer. We must work together to transform government functions on the one hand and improve the quality of seafarers on the other. Only in this way can things be done well and the current unfavorable situation be reversed.

When writing down the topic, my heart will drift a little. What a vast background, accounting for three-quarters of the world, can you handle it?

Think of one thing. Maybe the competition is fierce, maybe the camera is always facing the yellow land and the black land, and even I am tired of it.

Want to do something new, a TV station found an ocean-going company and said, "I want to do a TV program that reflects the mental outlook of seafarers."

Product ",let the company appreciate both promised to sponsor and take care of my uncle miraculously arranged for TV writers to collect elements on ocean-going ships.

Material, experience life. Writers are leisurely on the boat, and the boat enjoys the exotic scenery near the dock. A few months later, "the sea.

After the successful trip, the writers left the ship, then closed the door for a few days, took out a bunch of things called scripts and sent them to the ocean shipping company for collection.

Ask for advice. Ocean shipping company, what is a sailor? They are all smuggling and reselling, turning over pornographic books and periodicals, visiting the red light district, and even taking drugs and selling drugs.

Lord. Finally, there is a corner that is often lost in thought, or bowed his head and thought that the family had thrown an almond out of the wall.

Yes There is only one sentence in the whole script: I am a sailor. Who am I afraid of? !

The TV series was naturally not filmed, and the ocean shipping company did not have enough money to humiliate itself or hurt itself. Those screenwriters are used to being traitors.

Science is dramatic and has a selling point, which can stimulate the growing nerves of ordinary people. So, they put it in.

People and things coming from the corner, even what happened to them or to them, stole the column. this is not

Sailor. However, reading literary and artistic works, especially great works, is really rare about seafarers. Foreigners are like Lawrence.

Ink is like rain to miners, and China people are like comedians. Zhao Benshan imitated the blind and leaned on the bamboo pole on the stage watched by hundreds of millions of people. There is a sailor's toilet.

I can't help asking, when will it be our turn to show our faces?

Maybe the hidden dragon is in the deep, and the world doesn't know much about seafarers? Throughout China and foreign countries, sailors were born and later went ashore to become writers.

Not scarce. They know sailors, but almost all their great works have nothing to do with the sea. Maybe they have difficulties, but they will always make people.

I feel that they don't want to touch that kind of sea experience any more, just as ex-prisoners don't want to talk about it or be mentioned in prison.

Form. I don't want to say what I know, and I want to talk nonsense if I don't know.

We sailors comfort ourselves like this.

What is a sailor? In fact, we sailors know best. Magellan, Columbus and Zheng He were not sailors. They just ... ...

An explorer or navigator who has sailed at sea. Although we sailors consciously or unconsciously have a little idea of trying to win over.

When they came to the camp, they knew in their hearts that this was two different things. Sailors are sailors, not "homes". Sailors just ...

Make a living at sea, and exchange the hard work at sea for a carefree life for your wife and children. It is often said that farmers face the loess.

What about the sailor with his back to the sky? The "ground" you step on is still wobbly, and occasionally you step on the dirt ground, just like a car refueling.

Rivet your feet to absorb the "earth gas" and seize the time to restore your vitality. Wang Shuo wrote a masterpiece entitled "Half Flame and Half Flame".

Sea water, though not handwritten by water, can be written meaningfully by us sailors. There was an old sailor who worked on the crew for more than a dozen times.

A few months later, the desire for home and affection forced him to return to the land to recuperate. But, think about it.

It was difficult for him to get his legs off the boat until he had two children in college, a child in high school and a wife who was fired. A sailor's replacement

He estimated that in order to support his wife and children, he had to stay on the boat 365 days and nights a year. So, eat lobster and drink.

It is not sailors who drink foreign wines such as Napoleon. Although seafarers live in a sea full of shrimp, soldiers and crabs, they often step on foreigners.

On the land, but they can't put the score. When I think of my wife and children at night, I pour a glass of old wine and kill a lot of time.

Raw rice is eaten slowly one by one.

Sailors have prestige, prestige is concentrated on the bridge, and dignity is concentrated on the national flag flying at the stern. When wearing

When you stand on the bridge with binoculars in uniform, your home is not in your mind, your worldly troubles are not in your mind, and your eyes are only the past.

The party and the whole world will listen to him. At this time, the princes will be in the same position. He can do whatever he wants, and he can go his own way regardless.

Doing activities through storms or rapids. On the ship, the captain is the king, the president and the ambassador. port

No matter how high your position is, the national authorities will not lose their share as long as you are willing to go abroad. It's diplomatic for the captain to meet you.

Equivalence In this way, the ship can't offend casually and has the dignity of the country.

However, many times, the prestige and dignity of seafarers only stay at the theoretical level and stay in the pride of seafarers' children's childhood.

Medium. The captain is easy to provoke, and people know that he is a fairy. If he is the chief engineer or bassoon, he has repeatedly explained that people

Still confused, old ghost (track)? Two ghosts (tracks)? There is such a position? How old is the officer? Only in this world

Recognize the director and section chief. So we sailors are talking about how big the ship is and how the sea is in front of our wives and children, intentionally or unintentionally.

He Kuan, how he overcame one devil's storm after another and gained a little admiration from his family, just like a family singing Kara.

Ok.

This is enough paper, it will break when you poke it.

"Fall in love with someone who doesn't go home." This song is very popular, but it is by no means for sailors. A sailor's woman would never sing like this.

This song. The singer on the stage is worried about singing new words, and the boys and girls under the stage don't know what it's like to be worried. It's a mirage. Realistic students

In life, a sailor's woman "falls in love with someone who doesn't go home" and is full of pain, blood and tears.

Sailors' women have thousands of reasons to vent their grievances, but every time they board a ship at the port, what they see and hear is both grief and indignation.

Turned into love. They saw their men stepping on steel plates all day, like ants on hot bricks.

"Women are the people who think the most in their lives, and women are the people who have the least contact." A sailor said this. There are no women around.

Our sailors are lonely. The hardest thing for people at sea is loneliness. Lonely people miss home and themselves in all their spare time.

His wife and children. "Loneliness and excellent literary creation are inextricably linked"; "If you look back at the spiritual history of mankind,

You will find that loneliness always goes hand in hand with outstanding thinkers, philosophers and even scientists. "Scholar and writer Li's words are so incisive.

Conclusion. However, he doesn't know seafarers. Sailors are not thinkers and philosophers, they are too ordinary, and their loneliness brings convenience.

It is a primitive yearning for temperament. Their loneliness makes their feelings washed clearly, and their feelings are used particularly deeply.

Sensitive and fragile.

When the sun sets and the clouds at the junction of the sea and the sky turn pink, sailors love to sit on the bow in slippers, and this moment is lonely.

My heart is not broad, only my own home, and I miss women very much. Day after day, that emotion is refined and accumulated into one.

Sailor women feel the vastness of the sea whether rowing or washing dust. However, the devil also

I climbed up. Because emotions accumulate over time, just like the higher the water level, the more fragile the dam is. Sometimes, a small one

An ant nest and a small mouse hole may cause a dam break thousands of miles away. At parties, people always ask carefully what sailors are most afraid of.

What is this? You can't turn over when eating fish. The sailor smiled and his expression turned upside down. What is the most taboo? Sailors have a clear head.

Chu. As a result, the seaman's woman is extremely strong, serving her in-laws, taking yarn washing classes and rolling up her sleeves. singing and dancing

In halls and bars, they lost their leisure time, and they didn't want to stimulate the nerves of men at sea. The sailors are at ease, just in

A small photographer and a photographer on the boat are getting off the boat after drinking old wine. They heard the brothers' hostile exhortation: "Dude, relax.

Don't retaliate. "The woman happily bags carrying back.

The sailors all cook well. They had a hard time on the boat, and when they entered the house, they didn't want to have a good time. They thought too much.

Trying to make up for his wife and children. Without any special skills, they began to practice cooking. Is it ... or not

The real sailor is not seasick, but whether he can serve a few side dishes.

"The pigeon in Guanguan, in Hezhou, is a gentle and graceful lady, and a gentleman is good." When human civilization advances to the point where emotions can drift with the wind

Hou, heaven is natural. This old ballad shows that there is still a true temperament on the water. Sailors' emotions are sensitive or fragile.

Come on, it's all true. It's simple.

As for a boatswain, learning that his father was dying soon, he cut off a lock of hair and mailed it to his sickbed, which reminds people of the Southern Song Dynasty.

My mother-in-law's tattoo is too bold. It seems that it is not our seamen's business, so I won't say it.

three

People used to live on land, but suddenly they were choked by water. Can it be normal? That's true, but we sailors

Don't like listening. Because it sounds like pity. In terms of quantity, seafarers are indeed a vulnerable group, with only a few million in the world.

Although their world accounts for three-quarters of the world.

But no one said sailor. I'm afraid no one can underestimate the energy of seafarers.

Now people talk about the global village. The world is so small that the voice at one end of the village can be heard clearly and imitated at the other end.

All the Buddha needs is a little mouse, move your fingers, and the bread and cream in the east of the village will be served on the table in the west. In that way

What about no sailors? I'm afraid people at the east end of the global village will say that the grapes at the west end are sour. The world collapsed by three quarters.

Third, the earth is as vast as the universe. Migrant workers in the city occasionally point to the tallest building and say, I built this. Seaman's signifier

Light things on supermarket shelves. I brought this?

Sailors never feel good about themselves. People who don't worry about food and clothing now are keen on a sense of accomplishment, and the value of life seems to have gone from

The amount of money has moved away and moved to the so-called performance. Where are the sailors?

An old mechanic got off the boat and came to the company on the day of his discharge, and entered the building one by one.

Son, and then quietly got on the train home (actually, I didn't intend to keep a low profile). He looked at the city where the company was located.

Tears are not resentment, but reluctance. Can this old mechanic feel a sense of accomplishment? Or he is an old worker in a factory, maybe.

There will be a tea party or a thermos that says "Glorious Retirement". This is a sailor who has to face loneliness when he works.

If a person leaves the sea, he must face loneliness with perseverance. The daughter-in-law picked up an old mechanic in her hometown and looked at her husband's crumpled bag.

Gong shed tears, so she left the sea for her father-in-law. But she thought to herself that her father-in-law was there.

Sail around the earth 50 times in the wind and waves! The sea is really big, so big that our sailors have struggled without a trace all their lives.

On land? Thousands of years later, Yuanmou Ren Yuan's footprint in Lantian is still clear.

The sailor's lack of achievement is also reflected in one sentence: "What can I do besides sailing?" Like the simplest thing in the world.

My son is sailing. They never ask anyone, can you sail? As a result, "logistics" is becoming more and more developed, and the taste of life is also increasing.

With the development of high technology, people increasingly feel that seafarers have no taste and life lacks interest. Who can't blame this? We sailors are cocoons.

Stand still, build a bridge on the vast sea, let the high-quality life flow quickly, and in the end, lift a rock and drop it on your own feet.

Sharing weal and woe shows the deep friendship between sailors and brothers. What difficulties do you need to shoulder? This can only be said.

At sea, the difficulties of seafarers' families are often on land. At this time, our sailors are at a loss. Secular, others are on land.

Like a spider weaving a web, the relationship extends in all directions and is invincible. Sailors have also shown incompetence in this regard, sailors.

It is particularly difficult to do things at home.

However, the competition in human society is constantly improving. From agricultural society to industrial society, and then to knowledge economy society, people have known agriculture.

People, workers and intellectuals. With the increasing openness between countries, one day, people will know seafarers, whether they know them from the ground or not.

Intellectually, or from the mentality. By then, the works about seafarers will be big productions, because they have three-quarters of the world's background; that

At that time, "sailor" became a concept, and when it was put on Nasdaq, it couldn't help but be unpopular and turned over several times.

Get close to seafarers, understand seafarers and pay attention to seafarers.

Looking at the global economic development, no one can ignore the great contribution of the shipping industry, which bears 90% of the international trade volume. As the Secretary-General of the International Maritime Organization said, "We live in a society supported by the global economy today. Without ships and shipping, this economy cannot function. " While we are deeply proud of the shipping industry, we can't ignore a special group-seafarers. Let's get close to seafarers, understand seafarers and pay attention to seafarers. Professional characteristics of seafarers: sailing and crossing the ocean. Seafarers are a special profession, and the requirements for the professional quality of employees are quite high. Its professionalism, independence, teamwork, arduousness and risk are strong. These characteristics determine that seafarers should not only have strong physique and skilled professional skills, but also have good psychological quality, adaptability to the environment and strong adaptability to emergencies. Classification of seafarers' work: seafarers' work is divided into two categories: senior seafarers and ordinary seafarers. Senior seafarers are engaged in high-tech jobs such as ship driving and management, with long training period, high cost and high treatment; Ordinary seafarers are engaged in general technical work, with short training period and quick results. According to the professional nature, it is divided into two professional positions: navigation technology specialty (also known as ship driving) and marine engineering technology specialty (also known as marine engineering). The seafarer's profession of navigation technology (ship driving) can be divided into: captain, pilot (first mate, second mate and third mate) and sailor on duty; The occupations of marine professional seafarers can be divided into: chief engineer, marine engineer (big tube wheel, second tube wheel and third tube wheel) and mechanic on duty. Seafarers' professional knowledge: seafarers' work in different positions needs different contents and levels of professional knowledge to support. The major of navigation technology should master the main course knowledge of theory and practice such as navigation, ship freight, ocean transportation, marine meteorology, ship communication, navigation instruments, sailor craft, shipping regulations and so on. Marine engineering majors should master: marine and marine engineering, electrical engineering, marine engineering materials, marine main propulsion power plant, marine auxiliary equipment, marine electrical equipment and system control, marine maintenance and repair, marine automation and other knowledge. In recent years, new technologies and equipment applied to ships have emerged in an endless stream, the management mode and concept of shipping have been constantly updated, and the degree of ship automation has been continuously improved, which requires seafarers to have higher subject knowledge, such as management science, computer science and network knowledge. Seafarers' professional quality: The characteristics of seafarers' profession determine that seafarers need to have higher comprehensive quality, which generally includes: corresponding scientific and cultural knowledge and professional knowledge, good physical and psychological quality, excellent language expression ability, excellent adaptability, unity and cooperation, team spirit, appropriate interpersonal skills and keen observation. Decent work for seafarers: In February this year, the 94th General Conference of the International Labour Organization held in Geneva adopted the International Comprehensive Maritime Labour Convention, 2006, which stipulated seafarers' working environment, medical care, welfare, social security, wages, vacations and living conditions to ensure their decent work. Like other countries in the world, China provides many guarantees for seafarers' decent work. Most of China's seagoing ships can meet the requirements of international conventions, and the wages of seafarers are far higher than the average wages of other types of jobs on land.
