I applied for a job as a fishing crew member for 15,000 yuan a month, but why did my friend remind me not to go?

The wages on fishing boats are indeed very high, but ordinary people cannot do it at all, because working on fishing boats has some safety issues and work intensity issues. Let’s take the safety issue first. I remember that when I was working on a fishing boat, due to strong storms, I was in danger of falling into the sea several times. Fortunately, my colleagues around me reminded me in time, so this did not happen. But even so, I I was still in a cold sweat because if I fell into the sea in a violent storm, the feeling would be unacceptable to ordinary people.

So when the fishing boat docked, I immediately asked the owner to resign because This job is really not suitable for me, and working on a fishing boat requires a strong body, because more than 8 out of 10 jobs on fishing boats require heavy physical labor.

Therefore, those who weigh less than 150 kilograms cannot adapt to this kind of work at all. And I want to tell everyone that the salary of 15,000 is definitely not directly signed with the fishing boat, because if the contract is directly signed with the fishing boat, then in terms of salary It has to start at least 20,000.

If you gain a lot, there will be various bonuses and benefits. As for those who only have salary and no bonuses, they must have passed the test, so even if you want If you want to work on a fishing boat, you should also find someone who signs a contract directly with the fishing boat, but I want to tell you,

When you first get on a fishing boat, try not to work on a small fishing boat, because these small fishing boats One is that the wages are not good, and the other is that the equipment is not as advanced as that of large fishing boats, so working on these fishing boats often involves a disproportionate amount of effort and reward. Final summary: To be honest, I personally do not recommend that everyone work on a fishing boat. I am a part-time worker, because only those who have been on a fishing boat can know the risks, so it is best not to go unless it is absolutely necessary

I am Chai Xiaohuo, and I am happy to answer your questions.

First of all, the question pointed out two points: one is the crew, but fifteen thousand.

Secondly, let’s talk about Xiao Huo’s opinion. 1. Is 15,000 worth it?

Life is never easy. No matter what job you do, it is not easy to get a salary of 15,000.

So, since you can get these wages, it means you are excellent.

Since you are excellent, is it worth it to be a crew member?

Indeed, it is very difficult for the crew. They have no relatives, no network, only the sea and the distance.

However, if you need money to support your family or pay off a loan, it is still acceptable.

But if there are other better choices, it is best to choose other jobs.

After all, the life of a crew member is difficult for ordinary people to persist. 2. Is it really difficult to apply for a job?

Since everyone has applied for a job as a crew member, it means that it is indeed difficult to find a job.

After all, there are still some jobs available on land.

For example, some companies are still willing to hire testers and solution personnel as long as they are willing to learn.

In order to apply for a job, you still need to do more homework and revise your resume well.

After all, your resume is the best stepping stone. 3. Write it at the end

It is a blessing to have friends who kindly remind you. You should also pay attention to it, analyze the pros and cons carefully, and make the best choice for your current situation.

Good luck and all the best!

I have lived by the sea since I was a child. Where I used to live, there was a small fishing boat pier less than 500 meters from the sea. I would go for a walk every day if I had nothing to do. The fishing boats and operations on the seaside can be said to be... Very familiar.

It is indeed difficult to recruit people for fishing boats on the seaside. Generally speaking, there are two methods of employment for fishing boats depending on the workload:

1. Seasonal fishing Boat workers: As we all know, there is a fishing ban period from May 1st to September 1st every year. During this period, some fishing boats are not allowed to go fishing in the sea. Also, it is not too cold during the coldest winter here. It is suitable for offshore operations and generally requires about a month of rest. Therefore, these fishing boats are all seasonal workers, and they usually only work for a little more than half a year a year. Because fishing is tough during the peak season, few young people and locals are now engaged in this work, so migrant workers from other places are generally recruited.

2. Offshore fishery farming that employs people all year round: This type of work is easier than working on fishing boats, and the work is relatively stable, but it is also very hard work. Why do your friends remind you not to apply for a job as a fishing crew member for 15,000 yuan a month?

First, the job of a crew member is very dangerous

Second, the job of a fishing boat is special Thank you very much

Third, many of the people who recruit fishing crews are agents now, and there are many unreliable “black agents”

Fourth, your friends’ advice to you is for your own good at sea. The work is relatively dangerous and hard work, and it is generally difficult to find new and skilled workers. However, it is impossible for the shipowner to offer a salary of 15,000 to someone without work experience. Without specific requirements, recruitment of workers with higher wages is basically untrustworthy. Your friends are right to advise you not to go, so you should not insist on going your own way. The crew members who go fishing at sea are not that easy to do.

Let me answer your question. Because I've done it before on a fishing boat.

First of all, when we go out to work, we must all want to earn high salaries, which is stupid, and recruitment also takes a fancy to our psychology, so I am telling you. This salary is 15,000 a month. Just imagine what ability you have to earn 15,000 a month? So many people get excited when they see a salary of 15,000, so they don’t think about many things. Let me tell you about my own personal experience.

Back then, I thought I had 15,000 to 20,000 yuan. I was very happy at that time, so I contacted him. His contact person over there, he said, you don’t need anything, you just need to prove that you are healthy and have not committed any crime, then you can be admitted normally, which means that you can just let me In the past, I bought a ticket at that time, and then took the train for more than 20 hours to reach his city.

When you arrive, you don’t go directly to the dock. Instead, he arranges for you to apply for a job in an office. There is usually a giant picture of this cargo ship hanging on the wall. Ah, he will tell you that you will work here in the future, and it will cost more than 10,000 yuan per month. What kind of insurance will you get if you have a vacation every month? Ah, but the prerequisite is that you must pay an amount ranging from 1,000 to 2,000. What next? It is known as the clothing fee review fee, and the person in charge of these companies will tell you that this money is not collected by them but by the relevant departments. So at the beginning, they will keep asking you for money. And if your mind is not clear at this time, you will keep giving him money, because you are waiting for your high-paying job, then if the money in your pocket is spent, but, If what he wants and other expenses are not enough, then she will introduce you to work in other places for a month. After you save enough money, you can upload it. In fact, this is a liar. routine. In the end, both people and money will be lost. It is impossible for you to work on the ship. As a result, you will also have no money.

Of course, in the end, I found a job on a fishing boat, but the salary was not as high as I imagined. Moreover, for a job on a boat, you start from the lowest level, that is, There is no shortcut when starting a job, because things on a ship are not complicated, but there are some technical things that you can't learn at once. It's about how many years of accumulation it takes to slowly accumulate and reach that position.

And the work on the fishing boats is very dangerous. The danger I mentioned is... The dangers understood by the war may be different. If you are slightly injured, you may have a broken finger. If you are seriously injured, then you may be injured. Life is in danger, so the work on the fishing boat is not that easy. When I went to work in the first year, the salary was only seven or eight thousand yuan per month, but Not for the entire year, but from September of each year. By the end of the year.

People often ask me, "Well, please help me find a job on a fishing boat. No matter how hard or tiring I am, I can bear it. First of all, it doesn't mean that you can't endure hardship. You can't suffer." , the first element of uploading is to overcome seasickness. Many people don’t know how serious seasickness is. Friends who have experienced heat stroke may know what heat stroke feels like. If you get seasick on a ship, it will have the same effect as heat stroke. My limbs are weak and I can't exert any energy, so I want to be on a fishing boat. It just so happens that the first thing you need to do at work is to overcome seasickness, if you don’t even have that. Then you can't do anything.

So people still have to be down-to-earth and know how much they weigh. Don't be fooled by the so-called high salary outside, everything is a process of accumulation.

I hope my answer will be helpful to you.

In 2014, my cousin became a crew member. After graduating from college, he had not found a suitable job. My family was very anxious. At that time, I saw a recruitment notice for crew members in the newspaper. The salary was 2 taels per month. Wan was required to be in good health, be able to endure hardships, and not have any diseases. He should be around 24 years old. If he met all the conditions, he was naturally recruited as a crew member.

After staying at home for only a few days, I went to report. I didn’t even tell him where he was going to sea. He just drifted on the sea for many days. Young people are not used to life on a ship. He suffered from vomiting and diarrhea. , he couldn't stop vomiting and became seasick. He couldn't do anything for a whole week. He gradually adapted to the life on the ship, but he was particularly homesick. He even cried at the age of 24, but there was no way. He had been away for more than half a year, and his family was worried and anxious. Okay, thought something happened? He couldn't be contacted, but he finally came back safely and earned 130,000 yuan. According to him personally, he would never work as a crew member again. The main reasons are as follows:

1. Life is boring and boring, and the heart is extremely empty.

People who have never been a seafarer don’t know the hardships involved. Only after they have truly experienced it will they realize how boring it is. It may take several months, or even a year, to face all kinds of hardships. The sea repeats the same work every day, and I feel very empty inside. In the dead of night, I feel like a ghost floating on the sea. 2. Face the sea with fear every day.

Being a seafarer is not a single job, it is composed of too many tasks, including fishing, laying cables, and repairing the ship, because any detail may cause the fishing boat to sink. The scheduled maintenance will take several months. If you are lucky, you can return home in half a month. If you are unlucky, you will not be able to return home for a year. You will be floating on the sea every day in fear. It is so hard that you can only complain to the sea. 3. Jet lag throws everything off, and seasickness is inevitable.

The biggest fear of being a crew member is jet lag. People are very tired. If you stay on the ship for a long time, you will get seasick. Once you get sick on the ship, you will not be able to eat for several days. This is such a torment. , it takes a long time to correct the time difference. 4. There is no internet or signal, and meals are not on time.

What a crew member fears most is that there is no network or signal, and he loses contact with his family in an instant, which often makes his family worry and scares him. What he fears most is that the ship breaks down and needs to be repaired, and jet lag often occurs. I didn't eat on time, and all I ate was frozen food. If I ate too much, my mouth would get bubbles. Conclusion

After staying on the ship for several months, I felt like I was floating and shaking when I walked on land. It took at least ten days to get used to it. I didn’t even dare to take a shuttle bus for fear of Falling down, this is the difference between land and ship. My friend reminded me that it was right not to go. I regretted not going. I regretted it for the rest of my life. Of course, in order to improve the life of the family, some people really persisted. After all, Just a few.

Crew members who go to sea are indeed well-paid, but there are also many unpredictable risks, including natural risks in the sea and man-made dangers. Do you still remember the tragedy of "Lurongyu No. 2682" on the high seas nine years ago? It still feels extremely terrifying.

In May 2011, 33 crew members, headed by captain Li Chengquan, were fishing for squid in the Southeast Pacific waters with the Lu Rongyu 2682 fishing boat. Some crew members discovered that Xinfa Company had deceived them with fake contracts, and they were linked together in series. Several crew members planned to hijack the ship and return to China to demand explanation from the company.

On June 16, fishing boats were filled with fuel in Chilean waters. Late that night, Liu Guiduo first ordered the crew to destroy and shut down the communication equipment and positioning system on the ship. He and other crew members broke into the captain's cabin with weapons, stabbed and beat him with knives and sticks, controlled the captain Li Chengquan, and forced him to return to the ship. Xia Qiyong, the chief cook, noticed that the situation was abnormal and asked to see the captain with a knife. He was stabbed to the ground by crew member Jiang Xiaolong with a knife. He continued to injure him by beating him with a stick, and finally threw him into the sea.

Under the threat of Liu Guiduo, Captain Li Chengquan was forced to use satellite navigation to set a return route to China, set sail, weigh anchor and return. After traveling for more than a month, when the ship was hijacked to the waters west of Hawaii, Liu Guiduo suspected that Chief Engineer Wen Dou deliberately sabotaged the ship's equipment and prevented him from hijacking the ship to return to China. The evil in human nature was released.

The indictment after the parties were brought to justice described the process of the killing or disappearance of more than 20 crew members: On July 20, 2011, Liu Guiduo summoned Jiang Xiaolong and others to premeditate the killings of those suspected of resistance. Wen Dou, Wen Mi and other six people, and then killed Wu Guozhi and three other people.

Therefore, Liu Guiduo organized the command in the helm tower, using the loudspeaker as a cover, and began to commit crimes serially in various ways. First, Huang Jinbo called Wen Dou out of the four-person cabin of the cabin and tricked him into the driver's cab. Jiang Xiaolong and other five people took the opportunity to go down to the four-person cabin of the cabin, killed Wen Mi with a knife and threw him into the sea. When Wen Dou returned from the helm building, Jiang Xiaolong and others Four people stabbed him randomly with knives and then pushed him into the sea.

Next is the crew in the twelve-person dormitory. Yue Peng and Liu Gang were called out of the dormitory one after another, stabbed with knives and thrown into the sea. Later, Liu Guiduo and three other people entered the twelve-person dormitory, stabbed Wang Yongbo to death and threw them into the sea. That night and early the next morning, Jiang Shutao was killed on the starboard gallery of the fishing boat and thrown into the sea. Chen Guojun was pushed directly into the sea by Liu Guiduo on the front deck of the fishing boat. That afternoon, two other crew members were assassinated and thrown into the sea. So far, 10 crew members have been killed, including the chief cook who was the first to be killed. You can imagine the horrific situation on the ship at that time.

After a series of killings, internal strife began to occur among the crew members who ganged up to kill, leading to a new round of brutal killings. On July 24, the fishing boat sailed to the northwest Pacific waters more than 1,000 nautical miles east of Japan. Liu Guilieng received a tip from the crew, saying that if Bao De and others wanted to rebel, it would be detrimental to him, so he decided to kill Bao De and others first. At this time, the kidnapped captain, Cui Yong, and Duan Zhifang actively requested to join Liu Guiduo's ranks in order to save their lives.

That night, Liu Guiduo ordered Jinbo and others to stab Baode and force him to jump into the sea. Shuangxi and Dai Fushun were forced to jump into the sea with knives. Later, Liu Guiduo called Bao Baocheng, Shan Guoxi, and Qiu Ronghua out of the dormitory one after another and forced them to jump into the sea.

In this series of processes, some crew members tried their best to save themselves. In the first round of killings, crew member Ma Yuchao had already disappeared.

At around 3 a.m. on July 25, the fishing boat lost power after flooding its engine room and the hull tilted. Crew member Wang Yanlong also disappeared inexplicably at this time. When captain Li Chengquan and others organized a self-rescue operation, four crew members, including Fu Yizhong, put on life jackets and jumped onto a homemade raft containing life-saving supplies in an attempt to escape. However, due to ocean currents, it floated back to the fishing boat, and they were later forced to jump into the sea. When the crew member Song Guochun asked for help in the sea and was rescued on the fishing boat, the captain Li Chengquan, who had been kidnapped, pointed out that Duan Zhifang and Xiang Lishan in their gang had no murder case, so under Liu Guiduo's instruction, the two men tried to protect themselves. Song Guochun took off his life jacket, tied it with an iron pendant and sank into the sea.

After committing these numerous murders, the murderers tried to sneak into Japan and created the illusion of being hijacked. At the same time, they forced other people on the ship to use satellite phones to ask their family members to provide them with bank information on the grounds of illness or injury. Pay money on the card. But soon the fishing boat leaked, so they could only turn on the communication equipment and positioning system to ask for help, and were rescued by the Japanese. After being rescued by the Chinese crew, they finally set off on their way home, which finally led to the serial murders that occurred on the ocean-going fishing boats. The clouds are cleared and the sun is revealed, and the truth is revealed. Naturally, they were also tried by the law, and each received the fate they deserved. Six people headed by Liu Guiduo were sentenced to death, and the other five were sentenced to heavy punishment.

Of course, this is just an extreme case, but when a person or a group of people live on the boundless sea for a long time, strange psychological changes may occur, which may lead to various unfortunate things. At the same time, fishing at sea is mostly done in deep oceans, where you face rough waves and are inherently risky. This is the main reason why seafarers are well paid.

The author saw such an accident when he was very young, which was the disappearance of a life and the breakdown of a family. Around 1995, the 19-year-old only son of a neighbor learned that seafarers were well paid, so he went to Huanghua, Hebei to apply for a job as a seafarer to go fishing. But about half a year after leaving, the ship owner sent a telegram back, saying that his neighbor's son accidentally fell into the sea while working at sea, and the person who was rescued was gone. Later, I heard that he was accidentally taken down by the big net when he was lowering the net into the sea. , got tangled in the net, and it was no longer possible to think of ways to save the person. Since then, seafarers have been remembered as a very dangerous job.

Of course, if you are ready to fight the sea, challenge life, or insist on being a brave crew member, the sea is also a vast world. However, please always pay attention to safety.

I am an ocean-going freighter pilot. The crew members on fishing boats have a much harder time than us. Let me talk about the following points.

1 Security aspects. Fishing boats are relatively small and appear to be so fragile in terms of fighting against wind and waves. In bad weather, the boat will rock violently, and a wave may hit it and knock it down. There is also the aspect of work safety. Since we are fishing, we can easily be injured by machines or accidentally taken into the sea when retracting and releasing fishing nets.

2 Hard work The working hours on the fishing boat are really irregular. If you encounter a school of fish, you may work non-stop for days and nights without any time to sleep. Excessive fatigue may lead to safety accidents

3. The living environment of fishing boats is small, and many people live together. If there is a public bathroom, it is quite good, and many of them directly face the sea. Lazarus. In addition, there is limited fresh water on the ship, so you can't take a bath frequently. You can imagine the fishy smell.

Let’s just briefly talk about these aspects. I hope it will be helpful to those who want to join the fishing boat industry.

Let me tell you about my real experience. I hope it can help you.

I was born in 1992 and was 16 years old in 2008. I was assigned a job by the school (technical secondary school) in an electronics factory in Weihai. Because the income was low and working 12 hours was quite hard, I secretly resigned. I didn’t dare I told my family that I had spent all my money after playing for a week. When I was desperate, I saw a job posting for sailors on a telephone pole, with an annual salary of 100,000 plus. I was young and frivolous at the time and didn’t think much about it. I just started working if the money was available, and then I called him. About half an hour later, someone came to pick me up and said it was okay, I could go, and then I got in the car with him (thinking about it now, I was quite stupid, trusting others too easily). I actually slept all the way in the car. When I opened my eyes, I had already arrived at the Rongcheng Pier. I will not go into the brief introduction and go straight to the topic.

Because it was July or August when I went, it happened to coincide with the fishing moratorium. Every year, fishing boats are not allowed to go to sea, so they are repaired, that is, the hulls are polished and painted, so I don’t feel too tired. I feel pretty good. .

In October, the nightmare began. It was my first time to go to sea. I had never seen the sea since I was a child, so I was very excited. After playing in the boat gang for a long time, after an hour, I started to feel unwell, dizzy and nauseous. I vomited almost everything I ate, and then started to vomit bile. Lying in the cabin, I didn't dare to open my eyes, let alone eat, and I felt like jumping into the sea. But people come to you to work. How can you work without eating? The captain asked the doctor to tie me up, open my mouth and put steamed buns in my mouth, poke it into my throat with chopsticks, then spit it out and feed me. After repeated repetitions, I gradually got used to it and could eat.

The most painful thing about going to sea is to go online and off the net. Two hours after taking off the net, you can go online. A boat full of fish needs to be separated into different types and frozen. Many times the first net has not been sorted yet, and the next net comes up. At the worst time, I can't sleep for four or five days, so I have to take a two-hour break while setting off the net. Because the fish cannot be put into the icehouse without sorting, it is impossible for the captain to do so. Let the fish stink.

It takes about two or three weeks to fill the tank with fish, and then return to the dock to unload the fish. My finger was broken while unloading the fish. About two thousand boxes, one box plus ice weighs fifty kilograms. There are five people on the assembly line. One person carries it from the icehouse to the deck, one person picks it up in the middle of the deck, one person throws it to the pier on the deck, one person loads it into the car at the pier, and one person arranges it on the car. I slipped when I was throwing it into the car. I used my hand to cushion it and broke my finger. I didn’t dare to tell the captain because I would be scolded badly. I just endured the severe pain and pretended to finish it. It hurt all night. I cried and didn't go for a check-up. Now the bone hyperplasia cannot be corrected.

And most importantly, there are all desperadoes on the ship. There is a rapist on our ship, who has not been home for more than ten years. They all have very bad tempers, and fights and stabbings are common on the pier, but there are some rules on the ship that everyone must abide by. For example, you can't go to the bathroom in the middle of the night when you go to sea, unless you want to die early. (Someone pushed you into the sea and you were swept into the propeller without a chance to call for help. You died without a body.) You can't pee on the bow of the boat (the faucet), and you can't take women out to sea. As for why you want to go. Catch a turtle and return immediately (turtles can feel the tsunami, so they swim upstream).

There are many more, but I am still very knowledgeable. I have seen all kinds of fish, big and small, and eaten a lot. This is also an important experience in life. After all, we are also people who have stepped in two boats, haha.

I am happy to answer the question. I am a fisherman because of the high salary. Let me tell you about my situation while you are deciding whether to pursue this career.

I heard from my uncle’s brother that he could earn money by working as a crew member, so he took a train from Dongguan, where he was working, to Shanghai to apply for a crew position. At that time, he told me that he was going to get on a freighter, but he ended up paying 400 for the fare. When we arrived in Yantai, the agent told us to apply for a crew certificate. I paid RMB 3,500 to apply for a Class B certificate, and then took a bus to Rongcheng Shidao. The agent said that I would first do an internship on a fishing boat. The five of us who were traveling with us were arranged to board a cargo ship ( It is a ship that specializes in transporting fishing boats to catch fish at sea), and then board the designated fishing boat for us to catch fish at sea.

The ship was sailing at sea for seven days, and there was no mobile phone signal. The rules on the ship are that if you don’t work, you won’t have food. We all eat the food and water we brought when we got on the ship. When they were loading the ship, , those of us on the boat had to do odd jobs. When we got to our fishing boat, I didn’t get on the boat. The other four people got on the boat. They got seasick and they went back to the cargo ship to prepare to return to the cargo ship. I changed as my fellow villagers said. I picked up a name and got on their fishing boat with him. I worked for half a year and told me that it was 38,000 yuan for half a year.

Our country closes the sea from May Day to the end of August. The wages of fishing boats are calculated on a yearly basis. If you go on a boat during the Chinese New Year, it will still be that much money. If you go on a boat at the end of August or September, you will also get the same amount of money. I have never done it. The salary on a boat is 40,000 yuan a year. If you work for a long time, you will become a fisherman and show off your skills (as it is called on a fishing boat). The salary will be higher. You have to work until the end of the year before you are paid. If you quit midway, it will be a few days. Not even a penny of it.

The fishing boats only docked when the cabins were full. Now the fishing boats are bigger and can hold fifteen to six thousand plate-frozen fish. They will only return to the shore when they are full.

Two people died during my time there. One fell into the sea while throwing things into another boat and was not rescued when he was rescued from the sea; the other was entangled in the machine's clothes and spun around. , his head was smashed; also, fights on the boat are long-term affairs, and no one cares about them. If you get injured while working, you have to suffer yourself, and no one cares about them.

I ran an ocean-going fishing boat (Indian Ocean) in 1997, owned by Taiwan Jianhua Fish Industry Company, and the name of the boat was Hongjia 202. At that time, a Taiwanese company cooperated with our city's Labor Bureau, which was a labor export. First sign up in our town, and then go to Chengdu Fenghuangshan Air Force Base for a month of fully closed military training. I remember that I was just 18 years old at the time, so young and frivolous! At the end of the military training, a captain came to the base to select people. Out of more than a thousand people, 8 were chosen, and I was one of the 8. I was quite lucky. After the military training, we were immediately arranged to go to the town hospital to have our appendices removed. Then the eight of us gathered in Chengdu and took a train to Guangzhou. Guangzhou flew to Hong Kong, and Hong Kong flew to Singapore. We were still taking anti-inflammatory drugs when we arrived on the ship. We have signed a contract with the labor bureau. The contract is for three years, with a monthly salary of 130 US dollars. Of the 130 US dollars, the family will receive 40 US dollars per month for settling-in expenses. The remaining 90 US dollars will be settled at the end of the contract. I remember that at that time, one US dollar could be exchanged. 8.7 RMB. The death penalty is RMB 60,000, and of course there is a breach of contract clause...

In fact, there are many kinds of fishing boats, including squid boats, purse seine boats, trawlers, longline boats... The hardest part is the delay Rope boat, this is the kind of boat we had at that time, which is divided into hook setting and hooking. It takes four to six hours to set the hook (there are about 4,000 hooks) and it may not be certain to raise the hook. It depends on how many fish are hooked. It takes at least 14 hours. We mainly caught tuna. At that time, the market price in Japan seemed to be more than 3,000 yen per kilogram. The large tuna weighed about 150 kilograms, but not too little, usually around 100 kilograms. It was the day when we caught the most fish in three years. 3.8 tons. If there are many fish, the captain will immediately call the hook after setting the hook.

There are four Taiwanese on board (captain, cart, second cart, first mate), four from the Philippines (salary is 200 US dollars per month), and 12 from Henan (the two veteran crew members are paid 180 and the newbies are 150). ) We only have 130 in Sichuan, which makes me angry just thinking about it! The captain and the cart also receive dividends after receiving their salary. They can get tens of millions of NT dollars in three years.

Of course, in addition to the salary, we also have extra money, that is, sharks. The whole ship can get an average of five Singapore dollars for a shark's fin, which is about 30 yuan. The best upper fins are all given to the captain.

So you can imagine that when the shark came, the whole ship was excited (except the captain and the truck). Our ship (costing NT$100 million) is a new ship. The captain is over 60 years old and the contract lasted three years. We work around the equator all day, and there are few sharks. After three years, we will be divided into more than 10,000 yuan. If we could go to the southern latitudes of the Indian Ocean to work, we could also get tens of thousands more. The weather in the southern latitudes is bad. The wind and waves are strong, but there are many sharks, so the captain won’t go!

The food on the ship is good. There is everything except vegetables. Needless to say, chicken, duck and fish. Sashimi is a common meal. One tuna head is enough for the whole ship. The docking is irregular. Normally, Once a year, when the open sea is full of fish, Japanese frozen ships come directly to collect vegetables. When the fresh water is used up, ships that have just left the sea bring it. Oil is also replenished by tankers on the high seas. Every year, everyone buys more than a dozen boxes of instant noodles. When they get hungry in the middle of the night, they cook fish and eat them. They are so delicious that they never get tired of them.

Various symptoms started to appear a few months after I boarded the ship. The first was seasickness, which I was fine. The second was that almost everyone’s calves would be swollen. The captain said it was because they had not been exposed to the earth’s atmosphere for a long time. Because of this, in severe cases, sores and pus may develop, and even after recovery, dark spots will remain. When the ship first went out to sea, I didn’t understand anything, and the deck was often a mess. In the first few days, the first mate and two old crew members from Henan would teach you. Later, if you continued to act like that, the first mate would start beating people with bamboo poles, and even Everyone on the boat was beaten with punches and kicks. No one dared to resist. If they resisted, they would be thrown into the sea! There are usually breaks, but there are also times to repair and tidy up the fishing gear. After that, the boat is washed, and the front of the crew is wiped with a shampoo rag. The first mate rushed behind with a fire hose, and every corner of the ship had to be cleaned. After washing and eating, he watched videos (cassettes) in the dining room after dinner. In fact, it was quite refreshing during his free time. As for the safety factor, it is definitely much higher than that of offshore fishing boats.

In my three years of boating life, I have seen flying fish in the Indian Ocean, fast dolphins on the bow, the refreshing sea surface as flat as a mirror, and the beautiful sunrise and fairyland-like sunset! I have also been beaten and scolded! It can be said that I have gone through a lot of hardships! It is also a training for me!
