I got one for you! I’m a musician and I made friends with the drummer of one of the cruise ship bands. As a fellow drummer we got along really well so one night, at about 1:00am he asked me to fill in on a song. It was supposed to be just one song, but, the band director liked what I was doing and the set only had two more songs so I finished the set. We all had drinks afterwards! So a week after I got back, I got a text from the drummer telling me he got fired for letting me sit in! I apologized profusely but he told me he had been having issues with the director for a while. We’re still good friends to this day!

It’s sad that instead of protecting a crew member from a predator, they fired her. Twisted mentality. I’ve heard that sexual assault is a very real problem on cruise ships. I guess if an employee is assaulted by a passenger, they too get fired for being a victim, you know, the way U.S. schools treat the students, any involvement in a fight is immediate punishment for all involved.

Just took my first cruise on the Carnival Elation two weeks ago. Had a great time. Interesting video. Having worked in corporate America as a private security officer, I know a thing or two about false and frivolous complaints. People that make a complaint should have it thoroughly investigated by competent and fair trained officers. The vast majority of crew I encountered went above and beyond to make myself and fellow cruisers happy. They work real hard and are undervalued. It is my hope and prayer that fellow cruisers aren't making false complaints against the crew mates. If it is found that they are, the cruise line should be able to permanently ban a guest from future cruises. Several of the young crew members I spoke with had families and young children back home. One missed his young daughter's first birthday. I cannot understand why any guest would make a false or frivolous complaint against a crew member. Guess I was raised differently.

Hold up kid and stand right over there for me. You're not an officer and you never have been an officer. You have been a security guard, also referred to informally as "mall cop" or simply "goon". There's an important distinction to be made here, because even though police officers and security guards are both civilians, you can not exert neither the authority nor enjoy the qualified immunity from the law, that a police officer does. When you wear your private sector security guard uniform, your first worry must be to avoid at all times giving the impression that you are a sworn officer with police powers. Personally I'm happy to tell you straight up that as a security guard you are at the very bottom of the food chain. Now I know you've done better in life, but anybody else working a security gig, If you want to improve your standing in life and are looking for prestige, none of that is to be had wearing a Securitas uniform or that of some similar outfit. People with ambition do occasionally work as security guards, but for them that's just an interim solution until they succeed in whatever they are working towards.

Our cruise director would give us a heads up, but it was still weird to be asleep and then have the hotel manager and head of security come in with flash lights to search your lockers.

Also, sleeping with the guests is absolutely something that happened all the time. I didn't do it personally, but I knew several people who were notorious for that 😂

I worked on Princess, I always bought Rum in Jamaica or port bought 2 (2 liter diet coke) in Miami and brought it onboard put in my refrig. I did hear of musicians getting fired bringing illegal stuff onboard LOL, or getting drunk, I was very careful about drinking so I was ok, my cabin was on other end of theatre/lounge area so it took more like 15 min to get there from my cabin, also we were not allowed to go on guests elevators we used our elevators behind the scene you know which ones I'm talking about, and behind scenes doors where we went thru the windy stairs etc. Another way of getting fired was eating in guests buffets well we were allowed (entertainers) buffets 10am-2pm that's it, after that we go to crew cafeteria and you know what they have, rice, fish, catering to mostly philipinos, etc. I like fish but not everyday. So I ate at guests buffets 10am & 1:30pm stuffed my face, then we had gigs 6-9pm or something like that. Then we hung around with other entertainers or saw theatre shows /sat top decks or just went to cabin to sleep ...port days we were last to get off the ship first ones onboard, and we had great time walking around ports. They did drug tests sometimes weekly sometimes 2x month we never knew. They can wake you up 1am if they felt like. Yeah don't remind me of those days.

Thanks J for continuing to post information about what it's like to work on a cruise ship and the challenges. As a conscientious cruiser it's important to me to see the difficulties crew face; often far exceeding what others here in the USA would experience on land. In the USA we have labor laws that protect employees while working as crew do not have as many protections. It seems we would have more opportunities in the USA workforce to correct our errors vs just getting fired (always exceptions though). When we start cruising again I will work towards giving more in tips for both customer facing and behind the scenes crew.

We had been cruising for a while and on occasion sitting on the balcony or in the corner when the room steward came. I was surprised when a steward was uneasy and finally told us he wasn’t allowed to do that. We of course agreed to leave while he offered to come back later. We simply didn’t realize there was such a rule! On most ships it’s easy to figure out when we go to breakfast and scoot in and out while we are away for a short time so there really weren’t too many times we stayed reading a book etc.

Definitely a Part 2. I was also wondering if there was an approximate breakdown of rule-breaking by job category. I'm imagining that most of the ones you mentioned were people in the entertainment category, except for the cook who got others sick. All the rules I've heard of sound righteous to me. If crew want to do those kinds of things, they should try to get work on the yachts as in the show Below Deck. They nasty. After watching that show, I wouldn't want to be on one of those yachts even if I could afford it.

I was an Uber Driver in Orlando, picked up a couple from Magic Kingdom Disney World. They were Brits, working on Disney Cruise Ship that was suppose to sailaway at 6:30 p.m. From the Park to the port its about 1 1/2 hours. I got to pick up at 5:30 p.m. As soon as they get in my car and I hit the start button, I see their destination. I was like okay, so we start driving and we start talking. They start start telling me how they are crew members and went to park at this stop. I was like ok, then I ask them what time the ship was leaving they tell me time, I got quiet. When I told them there was no way we were going to make that, they started freaking out. I told them even if I drive 100 mph, the ships stop loading people way before the ship leaves. I was driving fast, got them there at 6:35 p.m. Ship was long gone, they had no money, port was deserted, they had no IDs of any kind other then their Disney bracelets and phones. Before I left, I gave them 30 dollars cash and stayed there until we found a porter, not sure what happened after that. No they didn't tip me.

@@JSHIPLIFE Jay I don't personally have anything against Don. I actually think he is a nice guy. Many times he makes me laugh with his goofy jokes. I have followed him since probably close to his beginning. I'm sure trying to come up with content to put out to the public may not be easy at times for you all. I probably couldn't do it myself. You all do a good job at what you do. I definitely think you do a very good job with your channel. Like you, I also have the same habit of saying "at the end of the day". It drives my wife crazy lol. It seems I have noticed a pattern with Don. In this case his "pattern" made him look foolish in my opinion and could make him lose some credibility. I would hate to be the people he was talking about in his video and be smeared by untruth. However I appreciate you reminding me about my comment. I really should have kept my criticism to myself and it was uncalled for. I have made several in the past on his page. I'll go back and erase them. I appreciate the nice way you brought that to my attention. Thank you all for putting out the news and doing what you do. I know you all probably don't hear "thank you" enough. I have been cruising since 1989 and cherish each cruise I have been on. I lost count of the cruises after I reached the 150 mark, long ago. I'm only 50 now but started cruising with my parents as a teen. I took my kids on many when they were little, now I'm hoping one day to be able to take grandchildren on them also (if I'm ever fortunate enough to have any). Keep up the good work, sir. Hopefully I will have the good fortune to catch up with you on a cruise one day (round of drinks on me).

I’m going to do a video on this but yes technically you are limited on where you can go depending on what you did but other than the mess to get food you are confined to your room. Usually you’re dropped off back at the home port unless you did something serious and in most cases the Cruise line pay your way home if you are on foreign land

I've work almost every major cruise line for over 40 years. The best I've ever seen some one get fire was Classic. and Hilarious. Young kid got drunk on shore. Made it back to the ship drunk off his ass. Security knew this, but they let it slide. But the problem was he missed his assignment that evening. He got fired the next day. They let him off at next port. Okay not a big deal. But here's the Classic part.. Two days later the ship returned to its home port - miami. That fired crew member purchased passage for the next voyage. It was hilarious. security followed him everywhere he went. The kid was cool he just wanted to say goodbye to all his friends. But finally after 3 days they escorted him off the ship. they refunded his passage. and paid his air fare home. But those 3 days were hilarious watching every one freaking out that the kid who got fired was back.

I was on a Royal Carrabean cruise and went for a couples spa with my husband. You fill in a lot of forms and its pretty clear he was my husband. After and talking at reception about other dayspa services the girl openly flirted with my husband. I made a bit of a joke to hubby about it as we left. Well he thought it a great idea to follow up and spent a lot of missing hours with her. I left him after this and no doubt some will say she did me a favour, however, a lot of money spent on this 14 day cruise and it was spoilt by the realisation my husband was an Ahole. I complained about herbehaviour but I doubt anything was done. Karma got him, he got a very bad case of Gastro and was treated in the medical office. That stopped him from spending time with her.
