How?
Let me first ask you a question?
Do you know what the top 3 NIGHTMARE problems are for deck cadets and deck
ratings when trying to learn the job of 3rd Officer?
Here they are:
Problem # 1: THE SENIOR OFFICERS ARE UNKIND or UNAPROACHABLE
Not all officers are kind or patient enough to teach,
and some might be facing other problems that
prevent them from focusing on teaching you.
And worst of all, you might be told, "You still don't know that😡, you've been here for a long time!"
How would you feel about that?
Problem # 2: NO TIME & OVERWORKED!!
After chipping, painting, or cleaning all day,
it's easy to just collapse on your bed to recover your energy.
You probably won't have the strength to go to the bridge,
and your brain will feel drained.
Problem # 3: NOT KNOWING WHAT TO ASK AND LEARN.
Here’s the TRUTH,
Trainees usually just go with whatever their senior officers are teaching them.
Even if you're willing to study, if you don't know what to ask and learn, you'll end up with incomplete knowledge.
Third Mate is a very busy officer, and he/she cannot teach everything to you.
The reason why I am telling you this is because:
This Ultimate Familiarization Guide will definitely help you
solve those problems.
🔴From : What am I suppose to learn as a Third Mate?
🔴To : How am I suppose to do the jobs of Third Mate?
🔴Then Finally : I know what to do now, I can do this.
Imagine having learning materials on your laptop, tablet, or cell phone.
If you're too lazy to climb the bridge because you're tired, you can easily open up the materials and read
or watch them at the comfort of your cabin or bed for at least 10 to 20 minutes.
Once you've read the learning materials, you'll then have an idea of what to ask your officer.
The guide also contains questions that will help you understand the works of a Third Mate.
With this Familiarization Guide, you won't have to wait for your officer to teach you anymore because you'll be the one asking how to do things.
As for unapproachable officers, we can't change their behavior,
but with the help of this guide, you can easily show them your knowledge and competency.
One day, they will be surprised why you know something that they did not teach you.
Who can use this Guide?
It’s a quick and easy to use files that can be used by
o Deck Cadets
o Deck Ratings
o Jr. Third Officers
o and even experienced Third Officers.
All the files are downloadable so
o You can study at your own pace.
o You can use it offline & onboard🔥
