i heard an infamous one last year (I was not part of the crew!!)……the guy was apparently fired for it..
..[to the onshore manager]….
"so we’ve got some good news….and some bad news"
[onshore] "whats the bad news."
[rov] well we were flying close to the rear of the vessel, we saw the props and then all of a sudden the video went dead, there was a loud bang, and we saw umbilical, plastic and yellow debris flying through the air. I’m afraid the vehicle went through the thruster, and it’s all pretty f9cked up. The client rep is not happy.
[onshore] aw, *£(, so what the *ck is the good news?
[rov] "well we got a spare set of camera covers "
