JOTW 43-2016
October 24, 2016
This is JOTW newsletter number 1,676
“Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.”
– Albert Camus
This edition of JOTW comes to you from Doha, Qatar.
*** Welcome to the JOTW network.
This is the award-winning free Job of the Week e-mail networking newsletter for professional communicators, dedicated to the positive unanticipated consequences of networking, or as we call it, “nedworking.” JOTW is a cooperative service. That means JOTW relies on the contributions of its members, like you. We share job opportunities, news and information about the job market, as well as swapping stories about life’s peculiarities. We connect you with others who are like you, and together we help each other. What a concept. Did I mention it’s free?
*** To submit a job for sharing on JOTW, please provide the job title, organization or company, and location and send it to Ned at lundquist989@cs.com. Provide a link or contact info so people can check out your listing or follow up if interested.
JOTW is sent out on Mondays by email with a list the jobs posted in the full newsletter, which is posted online at www.nedsjotw.com. This is designed to keep the size of the emails to a more manageable length.
*** The position descriptions and or follow up information on links to the jobs can be found at www.nedsjotw.com.
*** Posting a job is free. Recruiters can submit up to three jobs for free. Each job listing may be posted once in the newsletter for free
I request that you do not send pdf files that I have to copy and reformat. I prefer you provide your very brief job description in an email rather than an enclosure. Please limit the size of your position descriptions (generally to 500 words or less). “Can’t Wait” blast email priority listings are $300, and “Top Job” placement is $100. Just send to me at lundquist989@cs.com.
*** This is a cooperative service. It relies on your participation and contribution. As you receive the benefit of this free newsletter, you should also send in jobs you learn about. This is especially the case when there are job listings in the companies that you work for.
*** To sign up for JOTW or Ned’s other newsletters, visit this site:

Be advised that I am transitioning away from Topica and relocating the list with Google Groups.
*** To sign up for JOTW’s new Google Groups list, send an email to Ned at lundquist989@cs.com and request to join the new listerv.

Can’t Wait jobs: These jobs are forwarded to the entire list as soon as they are received, and do not wait for the Monday newsletter, and are posted prominently on the JOTW website. Then they are posted first in the weekly JOTW newsletter. Can’t Wait postings cost $300. Contact Ned at lundquist989@cs.com.

Three robbers in a small unlit wooden boat approached an anchored product tanker at high speed. As the boat tried to come alongside, the alert duty crew raised the alarm, sounded the ship’s whistle and started the fire pump to activate the fire hoses. Seeing the alerted crew and the razor wire hardening the persons aborted the attack and moved away. Port control informed.
149-16 12.09.2016: 0645 LT: Posn: 04:45.4S – 011:50.1E, Pointe Noire Inner Anchorage, The Congo.
Robbers boarded an anchored offshore supply ship and escaped with the rescue boat outboard motor. The theft was discovered by the duty bosun during routine rounds and reported to the bridge. Alarm raised and a search was carried out. It was reported that footprints were found around the rescue boat area and the forecastle deck.
148-16 14.10.2016: 0245 LT: Posn: Callao Anchorage, Peru.
Four robbers wearing face masks in a small boat approached and came alongside an anchored general cargo ship. Alert crew noticed the robbers, raised the alarm and activated the pressurized fire hoses resulting in the robbers aborting the attempted attack and moving away.
147-16 16.09.2016: 0250 LT: Posn: 03:52N – 005:20E, Around 44nm SW of Bayelsa, Nigeria.
While enroute from Port Harcourt to Lagos, 12 pirates armed with guns approached a chemical tanker. One pirate boarded the vessel and heaved up two aluminum ladders to assist the others to board. Seeing movement on the deck the 2/O raised the alarm, made an announcement on the PA and all non-essential crew members mustered in a safe room. Master activated the SSAS, sent distress message and informed the armed Naval guard onboard. As the pirate boat tried to come alongside and make fast to the tanker, the Master and the Naval Commander onboard decided to fire warning shots. The pirates returned fire. After an exchange of fire for 30 minutes the pirates aborted and moved away. At daybreak a search was carried out and no pirates were found onboard. The superstructure and deck of the vessel sustained some damage due to the firing. No injuries to the crew or the naval guards reported.
