It's been a
month since my arrival in the Philippines again , and roughly about two months
or three since I wrote anything.
For the
moment I'm still trying to get the settling feeling and making myself
comfortable now that I'm back home again. During that time I didn’t waste any
minute in upgrading and replacing most of my equipment that I had on my luggage
in preparation for the next ship work "tour". Well most of my
equipment was replaced but the electronic equipment I will be carrying on my
next ship work will be relatively unchanged, because I wasn’t able to upgrade
them during and after on my previous ship. So it’s a huge possibility that the
electronic equipment I have will be just simply be carried over on the next
ship work I'd be into (in a different company).
On other
news aside from the upgrades and overhaul on some of my gear., My separation
with the UPL - Shell company was met with hostilities., especially with the
crewing manager Jasmine Salvador which even threaten me that they'd have me
being BLACKLISTED ., and denied of a sea service
certificate.
Now black
listed for what ??? I'm not sure what they'd put up but as far as I'm concern
., I'm a so called "contractual employee" and once the contract is
over , I can freely leave the company - No strings attach ! . Besides I didn’t
even spoke openly that "UPL SUCKS" in the social media like what I
did in Cf Sharp. Heck I didn’t even sign on anything that might put me in debt
or owe them money. So basically they got nothing on me and have no leverage on
how they can trap my ass. Just to add they're so called threats are illegal to
begin with and I could complain anytime on the department of labor about this
issue.
Obviously
that old shit bag is making hallow threats, Anyway that shit stick can threaten
as much as she wants and it won't stop me from my decision in ditching her crappy company. It makes me even thinking
more that my decision is right all along.
In the end
it was relieving that I finally got rid of them for good., Those bastards even
took my marshal island seaman's book along with the Filofax holder with a shell
logo that they gave me half a year ago. Anyway its fine on me since they're
Filofax sucks and it's too bulky for my back pack anyway
As far as
I'm concerned , I'm not going to change my mind over leaving them - even if I'm
threaten or they have perks that I really wanted to have. The risk is greater
than the reward for me if I stick around with them a little longer.
