What’s it like being a merchant Mariner. Everyone that steps into this outfit makes a sacrifice. Nobody told us this would be easy being away from your boyfriend, girlfriend, family, kids, home, etc. They don’t tell you the bull sh$@ you have to put up with either. But some how I found a way out…
When you felt like giving up. And there was no hope for a job. I finally got that phone call that changed my life forever. Getting the news and telling my family that I was going to be serving my country. Not only that my step son was going to have a better life with his mom. While his dad will be away from home to provide for the family.
