Ano ba ang Seaman? Para sa akin ito ay isa sa pinakamaganda at pinakamahusay na propesyon dito sa Pilipinas. Isa din ito sa mga propesyon na masasabi natin na pinakamalaking pwedeng pagkakitaan ngunit may kakambal na piligro sa buhay. Kahit na may kamahalan ang pag-aaral at pagsasaayos ng pagiging seaman marami sa atin ang nagpupumilit makamit ito. Sa kadahilanan na maganda ang pasahod at benipisyo sa karerang ito.
Ang Seaman ay isa din Overseas Filipino Worker(OFW). Ito ay pinangangasiwaan din ng Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) para sa mga legalidad. Ang Seaman ay masasabing Seabased manpower.
Sa loob ng Limang taon, ako’y nagtrabaho sa isang Shipping company na ang pangunahin serbisyo ay ang magpadala ng mga seaman sa ibat-ibang panig ng mundo. Nagtrabaho ako bilang Liaison Officer at Crewing Assistant. Ang mga trabaho ko ay ang magsaayos ng papeles ng Opisina at lalo na ang mga importanteng papeles ng mga Seaman. Ako rin ang nagpoproseso ng mga papeles ng mga Seaman lalo na sa POEA,OWWA,PRC at lalo na ang mga importanteng lisensya ng crew o seaman sa ibat-ibang embassy.
Sa akin pagtatrabaho masasabi ko na nakasalamuha ko na siguro ang halos lahat ng klase ng tao. Nakita ko ang pagpoporsige ng mga seaman lalo na ang mga kadete na makasakay ng barko upang kumita ng malaki para sa pamilya nila. Subalit may isang negatibo na ugali ang na de-devolop nila pag nakasakay na sila, ito ay pagiging magastos. Karamihan sa kanila ay nagiging maluho sa kadahilanan na pag nasa barko sila ay nakaiipon sila agad ng pera at malungkot daw sa barko kaya pagbaba nila panay goodtime. At mababawi daw nila agad pag silay nakasakay muli.
Para sa akin mapamalaki o mapaliit ang ating kinikita dapat ay mag-impok tayo para sa atin siguridad at kinabukasan.
News keeps us informed of what is taking place around us. It tells us of political events, extraordinary and the ordinary important events. Even the advertisements have their value. In the world today, reading the news is essential and necessary.
Newspapers give us deeper in sight into the event. With newspapers you can choose to spend a few minutes or a few hours reading repeatedly a piece of news, unlike television.
Reading motivates the drive to know what happens next, to want to turn the page, the need to keep going. So it forces us to learn new words, to think new thoughts. In addition, it also builds empathy.
Reading the news is like gaining insider access to current information about the world we live in today. It records events that happen. It is important and interesting to read about developments and progress that are being made from day to day in the affairs of your country or in the affairs to the world. Thus, reading a newspaper makes us fit to participate in our society. It also helps develop an educated mind, informed judgment, and critical understanding.
It has been said that to read is to fly and it is to soar to a point of vantage which gives a view over wide terrains of history, human variety, ideas, shared experience and the fruits of many inquiries. Reading is a particular exercise that not only gives an insight to the world around, but gives us an inner comfort. When we read a particular news, we start identifying ourselves with situations and those around us. By reading, we are actually viewing a reflection of our society. In the fast paced modern world of today, it has become very important to be updated. Newspaper is a great way of keeping ourselves updated. Newspapers remain the most invaluable source of news and information, despite the different forms of the electronic media.
Reading news also inadvertently improves one’s language skills. News items and articles are written to express and communicate, thus precision and meticulous use of words and expressions are used. As a result, a person will absorb these language and style details while going through news items and articles, as well as sharpen communication skills in reading and writing. Consequently, comprehension skills are enhanced. The more one reads, new words and expressions reveal their meaning to the reader’s mind. Unconsciously, our vocabulary is enhanced and the language ability improves, becoming more expressive and fluent.
