That is great for Leo. Happy for him.

Was 29 when I got my license and 35 when I got a chiefs job. sailed 8 years as 1st before stepping up.
I always upgraded the license as soon as I could. Leo is probably the same way. And when you are young and the opportunity is there you need to take that next job on a quick turnaround. Cause you don’t know when that may be available again. I had a third engineer who I think was Leo’s roommate for a bit leave my ship and go to a tanker like Leo’s because my ships contract is up in the air. Probably a smart move.
I’m just very bitter with the union and how things are goin. But that’s a 3 beer story.
