I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I'm tempted to ask him why he's not legit, then offer to show him how to get that way. I've been a business owner for almost two decades. There's no reason why he can't lease/buy gear and operate legally with all regs and insurances.<br />

I take my exams for 100 Ton Captain's license next month. I'm not going to look too hard for anything until that happens. I don't want to stop class right in the middle to go on a 5 or 10 day job.

R. Hood has a good point.........do you keep a discharge book??? Do you have an SCTW or BOSIET??? If so, maybe a thought to pursue some offshore stuff or grab another "sea going" position somewhere for the interim.<br />
I can guarantee that if you go work for a gimm crakky outfit like that, you'll end up chasing the paycheck for months. When a company waters down the trade chances are they're out to screw people. It's already clear they don't give a rats ass about the regs &/or safety.

Good Luck my friend. U tried offshore?

You should post the companies name on every diver website so we can all stay away from these idiots. And call OSHA so maybe some poor idiot does not get killed.

Well, the rate was fair, not great, but fair, until you figure in the risk. My work ethic is fine. I told him "no". But at the same time, my wife and kids need a roof and food. Honestly, when you are struggling to put food on the table for your family, you could really give a rats butt about what's going on with the diving industry. I'm not the shady crook cutting the throats of legitimate contractors.

Hey man,<br />
<br />
If you work like that, you're a true dive slut. You're gonna completely undermine the trade with that kind of ethic. Dead diver, no free men! What kind of gimm crakky outfit would even propose shit like that. Pay peanuts and you get monkeys............... Might as well be a stunt cock, for less risk. Keep looking!
