A friend's dad was the head of safety for maritime shipping operations for an oil company, and he once explained to me that his pay was higher than other comparable executive positions because it was understood that if there was ever some fuckup at sea he would be the one to fall (or, rather, get forcibly thrown) onto his sword and get fired and blamed for the incident.
So spare a thought today for whoever has that job at this company.
Since they're under the Panamanian flag I just imagine them drunkenly drawing the dick and balls and then screaming Panama Canal Rules and Suez Canal Drools, then they try and spin the boat in a 360 to show off, but run aground. Whoops.
It was the wine. Wind. It was the wind.

Hey, according to this, the icon for the Ever Given is a circle. I wonder what that means?
I think it's just not loading correctly, when I was checking it out last night it had the same green irregular pentagon icon as the other container ships

and I assume MOST of that salary is based on the idea that they will not tremendously fuck up like this
Depends on what flag the ship is flying under, a lot of countries wildly underpay these people.

I am seriously enjoying the fact that I have nothing whatsoever in the least tiniest way to do with fixing that.
Whoops!
This will be here until I receive an apology or Weedlordvegeta get any consequences for being a bully
"SuezMAX? We thought you were asking if we wanted Tex-Mex. Which we didn't because we have important boat business in the waters."
