This is absolutely nightmarish to be stuck at your job like this.
I didn’t even think about that! If someone tried to keep me at work for months I’d be crawling through the ventilation system Bruce Willas Diehard style to escape.
Surely get paid
I shared this news with my mother, she had already known and understood the reasoning behind keeping the crew aboard. Shocking to be honest. Like, nobody can let them back on shore and give them a few hotel rooms? Let’s just have controlled explosions around foreign nationals because rules??
The crew, made up of 20 Indians and a Sri Lankan national, has been unable to disembark because of visa restrictions, a lack of required shore passes and parallel ongoing investigations by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and FBI.
On Monday, the crew remained on board even as authorities used small explosive charges to deliberately “cut” an expanse of the bridge lying on the ship’s bow.
Would they treat Europeans like this? This is only happening because they’re brown.
If the Europeans had visa restrictions they would.
Like if they were Brits lol
This also happened with the crew of the Ever Given for months, after it was dislodged from the Suez Canal: https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/06/09/ever-given-suez-crew-stuck-shipping/
I know it wouldn’t be fun to actually experience but I’ve always thought it would be fun to be stranded somewhere on a boat
