What's the problem?

I've spent many an hour watching my son reading similar for deck officers over the previous five years.

He's now just turned 23 years of age, working on Holland Americe cruise ships and been recommended for promotion to 2nd officer when his current leave (commencing today) is over.

Certainly not if your a marine cadet looking for an officer qualification in engineering or as a deck officer.

My boy is already earning almost as much as I did at the peak of my working life.

All strength to them.
