#17 The Slops

I enjoy the giggles we have in the kitchen. Probably the worse part of my job is dumping slops over the side of the boat. You have to call the bridge with the amount. I always called up with an exact amount like 18.46 gallons. Then I called in with cups.....282.88 cups. The mate on duty has to convert to meters cubed. The one cook and i have thoroughly enjoyed figuring other measurements.... stones and metric tons. We have more lined up.
