Well I have been advised that finally the curse has hit me. I must take the CPSC course. This course is a 3 week course taught by a Fleet Instructor who comes from Head Office. The purpose of this course is to teach crew to drive the lifeboats!!!! Yup those orange "tub" looking like boats that are awful to drive I now have to learn to drive. Reason being...my emergency duty has be as 1st in charge of a lifeboat and so far because I didn't have the course someone else has to do that part of my duty. But unfortunately this Fleet Instructor has decided to come and its my time, along with 12 other people.
So starting the 2nd of Sept. not only do I have to work from 11pm until 8am but I then have to do handover to learn my new job which will be Front Desk Supervisor during the morning once i'm done my job and then at 2pm I have to go to class until 5pm every day. Sometimes this class is practial, driving boats, sometimes its theory. And they expect that I stay awake through these classes?!?! Anyways...I was pretty upset, 3 weeks of this is a joke, but i've decided that oh well...the course should be fun, another AP is in this course so we should have fun and if I sleep in class that is their fault, they are the ones who've TOLD me I have to do this course.
There may be hints of bitterness in this story because I'm just learning to get over it, but in the end I know I will have fun with it anyways. And i'm sure in the long run there is a reason for everything. So I will have like 0 time to go ashore but maybe I can put in some pics of me driving the lifeboats???? Stay tuned
Lots of love from the cursed.
