It has been a few years since I have left. Season A 07 was my last. I have finally rounded the corner on my General Education and can taste that Physics Degree. I still reflect back on my time on the OP. This experiences changed me for the better. I am accomplishing my goals. 2 things I took away. 1 determination to do whatever it takes as shitty as it might be no matter what. And it was shitty. 2 Like Jeff Singer said, I could go further in life keeping my mouth shut, often its not worth it

Damn, the five years ago what did you hear about me jasonmathias ?

[jasonmathias]

The only thing I remember was something about the guy they called cowboy. Nothing more. Ya wow that was 5 years ago. I'm living it up now in SoCal going to college for physics and working an awesome job in Malibu making more money then anybody on that boat.

I was 05 B season, called me Taylor or Cowboy, Miss the sea. Would go back if it payed a damn. LOL

[jasonmathias]

Only B season 05 huh.I sat that one out. I worked that year from 1/4/05 until after Hake and the through the backload of B season 05 left ship on 6/5/05 with out a day off. That was 6 months straight. So I took B season of from the Phoenix. I remember hearing about you. Ya American Seafoods pays much better for the Pollock runs.
