Ship Life: Free Time

Living onboard can sometimes seem to drag out and cruising to the same place every week can get monotonous, but if you take advantage of everything the cruise line and your ship has to offer, your contract will definitely be enjoyable.

    As someone that sailed in the US Merchant Marine for over 30 years, mostly on Commercial Cargo and Tanker but I did sail as an Engineer on a couple of Cruise ships, it's nice seeing people make videos like this showing and tell what shipboard life is really like. One thing that I was told really hit home. Never work on a Ship where the "Cargo" can talk back. LOL

    Gleudson Junior So the sports instructors, at least on NCL, were basically cruise staff. During the day, you will be in charge of the outside activities. Climbing wall, tennis, basketball, soccer, water slides, pool activities. Sometimes cruise staff will do that too but sports instructors are the outside people. But then at night; you will proabably be doing what cruise staff does. Dressing up in your more formal evening uniform, and you’ll be at the shows as ushers or selling bingo and tickets, and you will probably be at the night events dancing st the theme parties too. Expect to be super super busy. It should be fun though

    I worked as a manager in the service industry for over 40 years and all I can say is cruise ship managers sound like they're terrible at their job. They should be able to manage their people well enough to give them a comfortable working schedule and they should have the brains to realize that an overworked crew member is not asset. Good for your team working a comfortable solution if a willing manager and team work together they could come up with some incredible solutions to get the job done without treating everyone like a piece of meat.

    Here is the scoop: do as I do: I do not drink any kind of alcohol, maybe every once in while, every six months? I don't even like the taste of alcohol: find it like taking medication … drink fruit or vegetable juices, tea, coffee, chocolate. And if some one pushes you to drink alcohol send him/her to fly a kite. If you get extra time, then use it productively: learn something useful, maybe language skills, or maybe some useful trait even by reading some good books. Or the best … I read the Bible everyday and I know that I am not alone, no mater who are or are not with me.

If you dislike your current roommate you can tell HR and they will attempt to move you to another room with another roommate. But you will never be given your own cabin unless your job title is high enough to have one.

Everyone is able to get off at ports if they’re not working. But the entertainment team had a lot more freedom in being able to be in public areas.

    Omaha419 most crew members are not from the US or Canada because we expect more money for our work. Also, we get paid more back in the US and Canada for lesser jobs. So most crew members are from other countries because those people are willing to work for less. It’s not necessarily a bad thing, because even though compared to US currency, they may be making low pay, when they take that US pay back home and exchange it into their currency, it may be more than they could make back home.

    Connor Harvey to be honest, I didn’t see the deck officers much. They were always working crazy hours and long days. Plus many of them had their own cabins so they didn’t care to come to crew bar. Reach out to Jordan F Martin. He may know some people who can answer so of your more specific questions

    Sagar Bhujel assuming you are onboard a ship, for the most part; the front desk people deal with the guests. Like the front desk of a super busy hotel. You deal with complaints and answering questions. It can be tiring because the hours are long and you aren’t moving a lot; but more because cruise ships passengers can get pretty annoying. And most of the front desk people did other duties too. If you speak other languages you may be asked translate the daily itineraries. I would assume you will Be mainly guest facing. However, I haven’t heard of that recruiting agency. So once you know what company and what ship you will be working on, I maybe able to know a little more info. Congratulations on the offer!!

Often I feel that may be I am being cheated as I cannot see any website of this agency and when I asked them they said it is under development hence unable to check the website.

    @@lianelow4176 Once or twice a week we would get (by rotation) a "morning off", where we could go off the ship as soon as the ship docked and didn't have to work in the morning. So we could have, for example time to go outside since around 8 AM till 5PM. Those were the days. But now there is no such thing any more. Double work, same salary, less free time, more corporate bullshit and more and more pressure. Back in 2008-2010 (when I worked for Carnival) it used to be great. You would work hard, but also get your free time to recharge your batteries. I remember that the average free time outside in 2010 was about three hours. hardly had the time to gou out for an hour or two, then had to be back.For hours was about the most in one week. No morning offs, and embarkation off was only for ass-lickers. And your work got rewarded. Not any more. A lot of ass lickers have been promoted as well ("diversity" presumably). I would rather work fora lot less money and not be a slave and enjoy what is beautiful around me.
