"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Has anyone ever heard of fish processing on factory trawlers in Alaska? If so does anyone have any information on how to get on and if it is easy to get hired. I have heard that it is not that hard to get on and you will make $3500 to $5000 a month and possibly more. I also know that the contract that someone would have to sign is a 2,3, or 6 month contract. This is all that I know( I got it from a hiring agency called Glacier Bay). If anyone has any experience with this or knows someone who has please reply. I was thinking about doing something diffrent for a little while.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I don't know the answer to your original question.

However I'm sure you are aware that this is one of the most dangerious jobs there is.

You must mean the crab boats.

I'm not sure that fish processing on one of these ships will yield that much $$$ but if you get a chance to join the crew on deck then you'll be rolling in the dough... That is, of course, if you think you can handle it.

I've done a similar job on the Eastcoast and it pays very well.. but the hours are insane some 24 hr long shifts with maybe a 4 hour rest period before working another 24hrs... you end up exhausted. Also, if you are sea-sick... forget it. You'll be trapped on a floating hell hole for weeks at a time. These jobs aren't for "weak" men who don't like physical labour.

Green Horns aren't very welcome to these jobs. They want men with experience. It's a dangerous and someone who doesn't know how to do his job will be a burden to the rest of the crew and can infact endanger his life and the life of the others, based on carelessness.
