Today some company big shot turned up. No one has been since the construction of the ship has commenced, he turned up for the first time and started to patronise at once..
Just as I was ready to put him in his place, I realised that he is saying exactly what I have been saying all this time. We can't work using the local's system and expect results!
I altered my attitude, and watched him delighted.
Every day there should be a fucking meeting. There is no work to be done, if no one knows what they are to be doing, and not like cockroaches, everyone scattering without a trace.. Everybody hates the meetings, but there are no results without them.
The arse of a captain, who has up to yeaterday insisted that I ought adjust to the locals and work as they do, kept his mouth shut and nodded his head to everything. A day has not passed and he already is sorry for the idiotic thing he said yesterday, especially once he met my smug smiling face.
Than the smartypants from the company went ahead of himself a bit, and started the sentence " You are responsible for" when I immediately interrupted, and explained that we are not on full wages and thus are not responsible for anything there, directing him instead to the local project manager..
Maybe I should have keep quiet, I instantly remembered how I failed at the captains exam- because I did not know how to keep my mouth shut. But what can you do- its stronger than me.
Later the Electrician came up to me- with a russian-english statement "you the best chief"... Referring to the two ball-less asses, who kept their mouths shut and head a nodding.
This put me in a good mood.
