    This document contrasts the expectations of life as a cadet on a ship with the reality. It shows expectations of an engine cadet relaxing and watching movies compared to the reality of night rounds. It also shows deck cadet expectations of being a helmsman compared to the reality of fetching coffee. Finally, it contrasts expectations of tasks learned and duties with the harder realities of the work, like bringing tools and filling logbooks.
