Irony

You never know. Some people might like freighters that sink slow. I mean, all the people got off.
I would definitely not put that freighter in the top ratings. The sea, perhaps. Davy Jones always wins.
best cruises to send your mother in law on?
I dunno. I would need to know how many times it completed a voyage successfully. After all, it only sank ONCE, right? Metrics are everything. And you could do a root cause analysis to find out why it sank, and implement process improvements so it wouldn't happen again.
On the other hand...
And CR still keeps sending the freight company surveys asking them to rate their ship.
It was being towed to China for reconstruction work, and broke in half during a storm. There was no one aboard, and the videos were taken from the ocean-going tug.
terri c - but it couldn't sink again could it?
You and I might think it could not sink a second time, but that doesn't mean anyone else would agree. I worked on a project once where once a week the team would meet for 2 hours to update the "Gant charts" (a type of progress measurement that project managers love). The managers had very little idea of the substance of the project, and might very well not have recorded the ship sinking as a "one-time event."
Riveting stuff, Grumpy, watching videos of a scow sinking. What other screaming madness goes on in your house? :)
