New job!
 
Yesterday I resigned from my job in IBM and will move on to Maersk Line IT :)

Because I have worked in some Maersk companies before, I will get all my seniority back - 7 years and 11 months!

Yes, its shore duty. I will work as a program manager - meaning I will work with the primemovers for the IT systems.

That means I will work with the IT systems you use, to get services from Maersk Line :D

I used to work in Maersk Data, before IBM purchased that company. Maersk Data developed most of the IT systems.

Its good to be back

One day we may be ''co-workers'', when I get my diploma I may work for maersk as a ship's officer

The pay is better than what im used to. They try to allign to the market.

Iv heard the officers training in Maersk should be very hard, but also one of the best educations in that field

In fact at least 1 Maersk ship have been attacked by pirates, so even more the reason NOT to go sailing
