I am a registered member but wanted to stay anonymous.
I have completed my time at college and successfully passed this and made a good start to my cadetship. My last sea phase however was a disaster. I did 2, 4 month long trips on the same ship with the same crew and suffered from stress. The crew were foreign and officers also. All were unsupportive and treated me pretty unpleasantly and didn't give me any help or support. My training officer wasn't interested in me and just brushed it off as being my fault - you will just have to get on with it kind of thing. As a result I was unable to complete my TRB signings and am now unable to complete my orals. My sponsoring company have just cut me off completely. Is there anything I can do? I desperately want to complete this but have no idea who to turn to. I should have complained more perhaps at the time and asked for more help but just assumed I had to get on with it. Has anyone else had a bad timelike this?
