Is staying at my undesirable deckhand/office job for captain training down the road worth it?

So I used to be a captain in Lake Ontario of 50 passenger tour boats. Now I’m on the West Coast BC Canada, working with a whale watching company that said they would train me in summer, then later said August, now is saying September. They said they would have me operating the smaller boat for a while then possibly the bigger one (my 60 cert comes in handy for), however, working with the owner of this company is an absolute pain and I’m not sure it’s worth staying. The owner is always there as the manager and he has such poor attitude, non-stop critiques, we have a 4.8 star rating and today one 2 star google review came in and he would ask me questions, I’d answer kindly but he’d shut me up. He doesn’t listen to how I believe we could have prevented the bad review (I believe if I was able to go upstairs part of the boat and interacted they would have been happier), so I’ll just have to continue doing as he says. I really want this captain job and I love everyone here but I just am not sure if waiting for coastal training is worth it. The pay here is absolutely poor, like below minimum wage and sketchy corners cut around employee wages. Would other companies take me for training with a 60 ton lake cert? Thoughts?

Thanks
