[who this girl]

I was told that this career isn’t meant for female. Probably one of the reason why is due to sexual harassment.

I was in my last vessel as a cadet before i am done and over with this cadetship phase. Being the only female means you have to prove that youre as strong, mentally and physically as the other guys. No exception just because you’re a girl. However so, this topic on harassment, will always stay, and is never new to the females in the industry.

I was on my last vessel and 2 months before i was sent home, a new group of onsigners joined the family. And in that 2 months, i dont even feel safe being in my own cabin. Everyday, someone is always trying to open my cabin door. Dont worry, it is always lock. I get startled at the tiniest sound. So every time when someone put force on the door handle, my heart drop. Caught the person in act one day and brought it up to Chief and Master. Next port of call, Singapore. Call me lucky, i got signed off at my home port, with 14 days left of my seatime. I was given 4 hours to pack my stuffs as office personnel was already involved. (my captain was afraid that i will bring up to the higher authority so he “initiate” the idea first lol)

In that 14 days that i was left with, i was given another vessel and was told that i was an expensive cadet. Who sails for a month of contract? hah

But nonetheless, the person that put me in all this trouble is no longer in the company.
