Sounds like a list of reasons to add to my already huge list of reasons to never set foot on a cruise ship in my life. No one should be treated that way and it's not funny.

@ElitesPlatinum Dealing with a bunch of drunks & now days brawling would not be fun 🤩 imo

@ElitesPlatinum Can you imagine working on the carnival cruise now a days? I bet they have a high turnover rate.

@ElitesPlatinum I’m sure they do - no one wants to put up with this

As a public health person, I weep for humanity. They make these people work sick, & then we all stand around wondering why cruise ships are so filthy and sick.

seems like you're signing up to taking your peace & freedom away in poor living conditions.

No days off with a constant fluctuating schedule sounds like hell.

Exactly — the ‘dream job’ vibe looks incredible from the passenger side, but the reality for crew is nonstop 12+ hour shifts with almost no days off, tiny shared cabins, and being on call for demanding guests around the clock. Huge respect to the people who actually make the whole experience run smoothly. It’s a tough gig most people never see.

Do they have a union? They need one

Legalized slavery. 💀 That’s how these companies are worth billions.

@CherokeeOwl There’s practically zero Americans working on cruise ships. I go on Royal Caribbean and every single person has a thick accent or doesn’t speak English at all.

I’ve worked for a cruise line for 2 years now, I work 16 hrs a day, never have shade or a day off while onboard. Gone for 2-4 months at a time. As an officer(manager), coworkers change every few weeks. It’s chaos but it somehow works for me. Not for the faint of heart, but can make 10k to 15k a month

There’s a MORGUE ON THE SHIP?!!! nobody informed me of that. 😭

Sounds like a Navy deployment to me 👀

Um no. Idc how much they paying that sounds like hell. I’d be miserable.

Bruh it’s something really wrong with society these mfs are laughing at people dying while they’re on the job. This is another example why the world is so fucked up people think everything is funny. I hope someone laughs when yall die

My son worked as a chef on a private super yacht. Yes, it is a very demanding job, 6/8 months, no time off, short breaks, when docked maybe a few hours allowed off the ship. Tight quarters, sharing (bunk beds). But the pay was high and no taxes for those working at sea. Also then having the rest of the year off after your 6/7/8 month stint.

The black girl literally looks like something from men in black

“dead bodies aboard” *cackles* uhm thats different lol

Well I think they did a good job of dishing tea with day in g anything in g too negative.

*laughs in US Navy deployments 🤣🤣🤣

7 mins naps… But also lounging in a resort pool on “break” ….huh? 🤨

I fell in a crew area and whacked my head; woke up in the middle of the night with severe vertigo. Next morning, I told my supervisor I needed to see the crew vet (doc). He asked “Did anybody see it happen? No? Then it didn’t happen.” Had to go right back to work.

I used to want to work on a cruise ship. My cousin and I applied to Carnival once 😂

Reminds me of working in Food Service onboard Navy ships.

All the crew members I met had days off and was able to get off the boat during docks days. I heard it’s strict but y’all are striictt!

These ladies did the meme ! never work on a cruise ship. I did for a summer. That felt like what it was to be a pirate.

My nephew went for 6mths & came back exhausted 😆 said he don’t know if he’d do it again cause it wasn’t easy

Women's dream jobs is playing homewrecker, fucking passengers on a cruise while complaining about actually having to work also. Wild

LOL. These young ladies discovered that they were born and raised in the Matrix. But the Matrix can not exist on cruise ships, only reality exists. Something to do with the water. A similar thing happens around lakes, pools and storms - so things get real.

Is the ship obliged to dock once the morgue is full or do they just start to use the kitchen's freezer?

They didn’t mention that there is a lot of sex going on amongst the crew on a ship.

I was a GM on a cruise ship, had my own spacious quarters, basically a glorified babysitter but yes you work nonstop!

Sounds like absolute hell.

In the lowest point of my life, I thought about getting a job on a cruise ship.

Now you know why they employed 3rd world citizens to work in cruise
