I figure that my job is to support, and if my watch officer is cool, I usually try to work on my weak spots, which are many, and in doing so, I think it keeps ego out of it... hopefully, anyhow.

Have a great holidays! back to the boat tomorrow.....Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02063582023842108653noreply@blogger.com
