Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. He lost everything more than once. This is what he learned on the way back. In his final year of high school, Alaattin Tuncer was failing eight classes and had one week to fix it - or lose the only thing he loved: the sky. He passed. It was the first time he discovered he could work that hard, and that he simply never had. What followed is a life almost nobody would believe if it were fiction. A boy who could not swim passed the tests for an elite underwater-technology program and became a commercial diver working eighty meters down. A man who could not ask for a bathroom in English built a working life in America. He ran five companies in Qatar and helped thousands of workers from Asia find jobs there. Then he lost his house, his equipment and almost everything he had built - and started again. He went back to sea and rose to command a ship. He gave that up too, when his youngest son fell ill, and lived in a truck for nearly a year. He rebuilt his body from 130 kilograms. He built a family business his wife and three sons could live inside - and then COVID pneumonia put him in intensive care, where a doctor told him to make peace with his family. It took him eight months to come off oxygen. It started with two steps. A true story of risk, ruin and reinvention - told with unusual honesty about the cost. Tuncer refuses to make himself the hero. He was a bully as a boy. He hid injuries out of pride. He became the shouting boss he had once quit. He faked his way through a hospital walking test and nearly collapsed. What he offers instead is rarer: a real account of how an ordinary man keeps starting over - in a new country, a new language, a new industry, a new body. This book is for you if: You are standing at the end of a chapter - a failed business, an illness, a loss - and wondering whether there is another oneYou want a real entrepreneur's story: the deals, the mistakes, the debts and the comebacks, without the polishYou are an immigrant building a life in a language you did not grow up speakingYou need proof that it is not too lateInside: More than 150 photographs from the author's own archive - the wreck, the ICU, the trucks, the sea, the skyA working life across Turkey, the Middle East, the open sea and the United StatesThe hard, practical lessons of losing money, health and status - and rebuilding all threeFor readers who love raw, real memoirs of resilience and reinvention.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Most divers never see the invoice.They see the water, the hours and the pay slip. Somewhere ashore, a number was agreed for the spread they are standing on. Every good diver has done that arithmetic on the back deck and thought: I could do this myself. Alaattin Tuncer did. He could not swim when he applied to study underwater technology in Istanbul. He began again in America as a tender in the Gulf of Mexico, moved into air, bell and saturation diving, and became a supervisor in Long Beach. Then he built his own diving company in Florida around one used helmet and equipment he made by hand, and waited for somebody to call. Later he learned the expensive way that a diving company can lose more on paper than under water. He knew how to do the job. He did not know how to own the job. THE DIVING CONTRACTOR is the book he wishes someone had handed him on his first day.Part One: the careerWhat a commercial diver really does, and the markets that share one helmetA day on the dive station, and who stands whereIs this life for you: the body, the hours, the pay, the people who lastGetting in: the medical, the school, the first job, the tender yearsStaying alive: the rules divers learn the hard way, and the hazards that kill experienced men in shallow waterClimbing from tender to supervisor, and the skills that payWhere the work is: ships, class surveys, inland and offshore. Who buys, and how fast each one paysParts Two and Three: the companyWhat a diving company actually sells, and the four business modelsSetting up: structure, registrations, the gate pass, the capability statementInsurance and contracts in plain language: the cover that matters, the clauses that bite, pay-when-paid, retainage and liensThe safety system that protects the company, and why the "no" comes from the officeThe starter spread: what to buy, what to rent, and what must never be reducedThe plan a banker will read, built on a model company costed line by linePricing: how an hourly wage becomes a day rate, and why a busy year can still lose moneyScopes, bids and change orders. Finding work. Hiring and leading a crewCash, credit and control: the gap between finishing a job and being paidOne ordinary job, from the telephone call to the paid invoiceWhen things go wrong, and the mistakes that close diving companiesIt ends with a first-year action plan, a day-rate calculator and a business-plan template you can fill in.Who it is forThe curious. You saw a documentary, or a headline about underwater welders. Part One is an honest answer.Anyone thinking of the trade, or whose son, daughter or partner is: what it takes, what it costs, and how you get in.Divers who want their own company. Parts Two and Three are the business school the author never had.Supervisors. Knowing how the office prices a job makes you a better supervisor and a harder man to cheat.What it is notIt will not teach you to dive, to supervise a dive, to weld under water or to treat a casualty. It is not a diving manual and not a safety standard, and not legal, insurance or medical advice. Those belong to accredited schools, qualified supervisors and the governing standards. Every price and wage in the book carries its year and a note naming its public source, so you can check it and bring it up to date. Where the author got it wrong, he says so. Coming next: Book Two, THE DIVING CONTRACTOR FIELD MANUAL, the bench book that sits beside it, with equipment, job cards, scopes of work and forms. This item is printed on demand.
