I'd be buying coffee too. It's true John was one of the few exceptions. But he had good advice from Ted Batt who convinced him to apply for the apprenticeship. Ted used to be a prison guard before coming to the shipyard and had a very loud and authoritive voice. But he was always working with the apprentices and making sure they got the right education rather than just running back and forth to the tool crib for the mechanic. He must have seen something in John that told him he would be a good candidate for a turn around in life.
And he was right.
