Imho, and I will be castigated for saying this, 'serving' is not a career. It's a job. So you are fine to toss one in and hit the road. You can always find another job. It may not be 'fine' but if you need
money flipping burgers can get you out of a corner.
If you are looking for professional jobs on
boat head that
Volvo to Ft Lauderdale. You want to get there within the next month, do your course STCW95 (obligatory) and get an agent to get you day
work on
boats ASAP. If you survive that you may get a full time job.
Don't delay. Pull finger out and get cracking.
Dockwalk.com is a good website to join.
