As you know, I left for my first job diving only days after finishing the commercial course. I was told a couple of times, during that trip, how well I was doing after just coming out of school, being ready to be in the field right away. I would like to thank you, and the rest of the staff at DiveSafe Int. for making this happen.

They have told me that I am way more prepared than any other starting employee they have ever had. That's where I owe everyone there thanks. I feel confident in what I am doing, and it has shown. I want to thank everyone there for teaching me what it takes to be a diver, and giving me the knowledge and confidence I need.
