G. Petrocelli - Marine Surveyor

Just wanted to share a couple of pictures of my first field assignment. I didn't do much cause I am still going as an observer, but I spotted a couple of irregularities which I pointed out to my colleagues, to the dismay of the ship's 2nd. Officer. It feels weird to be on the other side of the fence but I guess it pays off. I couldn't help feeling sympathy for the guys on board though.


Talking to Fuchimoto on the bridge.

Enjoying the view of the loading operation from the upper deck.

The pictures are not that good but you are allowed to make fun of the funny uniform I have to wear.

Enjoy!

People should read this.

Vive la difference!

Toward no crimes have men shown themselves so cold-bloodedly cruel as in punishing differences of belief.
James Russell Lowell

Diversity is not about how we differ.
Diversity is about embracing one another's uniqueness.

True observation begins when one is devoid of set patterns.

If man is to survive, he will have learned to take a delight in the essential differences between men and between cultures. He will learn that differences in ideas and attitudes are a delight, part of life's exciting variety, not something to fear.

We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same.

The wave of the future is not the conquest of the world by a single dogmatic creed but the liberation of the diverse energies of free nations and free men.
