Been some
time since I last updated my journal, and I guess it's about time I write
something. The days that went after this ships recent departure from kinder
Morgan terminal in Galveston Texas have been relatively quiet. I had been busy
doing mostly the usual routine maintenance work and some affairs related to
the bond store.
Apparently
the latest news is that , the bond store inventory is not that accurate as it
was supposedly and as I suspect 3rd mate keith caduas predecessor (3rd mate
german corales) never even bothered to update it before he left and finished
contract. As a result me and Keith have now been updating the inventory every
so often and checking out why the numbers have been inaccurate. Anyway doesn’t
surprise me that German was always such a dick and dumped all the unresolved
inventory to keith after he left, I mean he was an asshole back then in Cape
Tallin and It hasn't changed when I encountered him again here in Conti
Agulhas.
For the
moment I had been testing out the latest laptop computer (Lenovo) I bought to
my sister during this ships stay in U.S.A. . The new computer I bought isn't
really much to look at and from my perspective as a buyer, I only intend it as
a gift and nothing more, This Lenovo computer I bought lacks the RAM power , I
sufficiently need to run games. Its only has 4GB of RAM compared to my aging HP
laptop that is 6GB Ram. I'm sure that my
sister will be delighted to see her new laptop and she needs a little reward
after all in successfully taking care of mom when I'm not around.
Aside from
the high end equipment that I will giving to my sister when I get back home,
I'm also planning to buy a new car for myself. My sister has told me that
there's a possibility that I could buy one this Christmas season and that the
payment terms are easy , 60 thousand pesos for the down payment and the
succeeding monthly payment will be just 10k
In other
news
I recently
ran into a heated discussion over someone who posted something on the internet
(tinig ng marino facebook group page). Apparently the posting is basically
harmless and does not have anything to do at all in regards to the maritime
community but what happened was that someone butt in on my advice and sharing
of wisdom in regards to matters of the relationship. From what I saw this
"Navie trasga" guy is very rude and ill mannered, and not only does
he even contradicted my posted opinions but that thunder cunt even has nerve in
insulting my username like a dog that got loose from his yard and keeps humping
and shitting his way through the neighbourhood. Of course I'm not just going to
sit around and let that insult pass, the problem with Filipino sailors is that
they love to insult people but are afraid to take an insult, So I respond on
his message by hurling a lot of nasty words and beating the shit out of him (in
cyberspace)
That's one of the many reason why people (and me in particular) don't like Filipino sailors , they always piss each other off.
