Sailing life seafarer, how a navigator works

Let's start with a story, Wei Jiafu, the president of COSCO Group, leads the second largest fleet in the world. If your goal is to be an entrepreneur, you may wish to take a look at the life story of Mr. Wei, who was born in rural Zhenjiang from a poor family, and later entered Wuhan University of Technology (60-70s was also called Wuhan Water Institute) to study, after graduation, he entered Guangzhou COSCO, which is today's COSCO Shipping Running Ship, a run is more than ten years. Many people are jealous of his progress, in fact, any success takes time to accumulate experience, just imagine who can endure more than ten years of life at sea?

With all due respect, although you are interested in sailing, you really don't know anything about the seafarer's profession, and your confusion will be told to you one by one.

First of all, the unemployed seafarers are a very small part, people's ability is to rely on the accumulation of experience, the life of the successful person needs to be tempered, the ancients said to read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles, and when you see the world is far bigger than you imagined, you will know how ridiculous your young self is when you open your horizons, and you know a lot of seafarer friends who have gone ashore really none of them can not find a job, Some of them are still engaged in shipping-related work, some have become managers, and at the very least, they can start a small company with the money accumulated from running boats. Don't underestimate the seafarers, they have experienced strong winds and waves, what else can beat them?! When you're older, you'll find out about the outside world.

Secondly, the gold content of the customs declaration certificate is high, and people with a discerning eye know that many students from key universities have obtained it when they were undergraduates, but the Customs Import and Export Bureau does not need so many people. But if you have a seaman's driver's license, people beg you, and if you have this ability, you will definitely have food, unlike the customs broker, you have this ability, and it depends on whether people are willing to give you this job?

If you don't want to be stopped by the specialty, then you should do a good job now.

After graduating from the study of navigation technology, the country is all back tuition, many small companies are afraid that they will not be able to grab a good school graduates will go to the junior college and students to sign a contract to provide living expenses, the real Dalian maritime undergraduate is not signed by a few people.

Seafarer's certificate is not the same as the customs declaration certificate, the customs declaration certificate is difficult to test, the seafarer's certificate is similar to the driver's license, one of my brothers is Qingdao Sail Ship Management Company, they are submitted to Dalian Maritime University and Chongqing Jiaotong University every year to train talents to their own company, after the end of the study, the monthly salary is at least 14,000 yuan, the salary is high and not tired, you can also travel everywhere, the company will sign an 8-year contract with you before going to school, your tuition will be slowly returned to you in the next few years of work, very good, if I am a boy, I will go to study.

If the score is enough, it's not bad to go to Jiangsu Maritime Vocational and Technical College, I graduated there, and now in COSCO, the students of our school have found jobs in the school, and they are all some good shipping companies, which are guaranteed. If you want to have a degree, you can go to graduate school in the future, or you can take correspondence courses to Dalian Maritime Affairs, Shanghai Maritime and other schools.

The customs declaration certificate is of little use, and the customs declaration is as many as a carp crossing the river, and the salary does not exceed 2000. In my experience, you can learn the marine engineering profession, and when you become the chief engineer, you can go down to land and realize your entrepreneurial dream. If you are a captain, you will not have much knowledge on land.

Of course, there are exceptions (e.g., Wei Jiafu of COSCO Group).

1. The "captain" is the supreme commander of the ship, who is fully responsible for the safe navigation and operation of the ship;

2. The "first officer", "second officer" and "third officer" are respectively responsible for ship driving work, deck department daily work, cargo loading and unloading work, life-saving and firefighting work;

3. "Sailor on duty" under the leadership of the driver and boatswain on duty, perform duty on duty or participate in maintenance work;

4. The "chief engineer" is the technical director of the ship, responsible for ensuring the normal operation of all mechanical equipment and main engine systems of the ship;

5. The "big engineer", "second engineer" and "third engineer" are responsible for the daily management of the ship's engine room personnel, especially the operation and operation of the main engine and auxiliary engine, the maintenance and storage of the engine room equipment, and the maintenance of other mechanical equipment on board.

6、"Coppersmith, repairman, mechanic on duty" under the leadership of the chief engineer and the foreman, perform the duty of the engineer on duty, and participate in the maintenance of mechanical and electrical equipment.

[Brother Pig Talks about Seafarers Issue 75] What kind of work do the mechanics and crews do on the ship.

When you are on a ship, if the driver is responsible for driving the ship every day, just like the driver of the car, but the crew is more comfortable than the driver, because you don't have to control the steering wheel all the time, and the general situation is to set the direction, and the ship itself will go in the set direction.
