Fresh off the boat. I would've been here sooner but they never passed a multi-crew license so I had to hit 1500 hours first. Joking aside, most people leaving have been here less than 5 years I'd guess, so it is helping new hires move up the list faster, since they (the ones leaving) are senior to somebody who is just starting.

Yawn ... call me when you've been swimming for 9 months.

BTW, Fridays are a great time to call HR, especially if you can be in MIA by Sunday night.

Well, the Friday before a class, anyway. It doesn't always work, but it's how one of my classmates got out of the pool many moons ago. Given the current pace and the attrition rate in the first year, it wouldn't hurt.

Seems a lot of places have trouble keeping guys the first year. It's sorta like prison. Once your there long enough, you get used to the walls.
