@@Seendnoodz I am not saying they shouldn’t. I just didnt expect that. Normally the crew quarters are very small from what I’ve seen and a lot of them have to share rooms and a washroom with the cabin beside them. So like a lot of them have to share a washroom between 4 crew members. And also I heard, I don’t know if its true or not, but the crew like the waiters and room cleaners don’t even get a paycheque, their payment is the gratuity like what the guests tip them at the end of the trip

@mikehunt221 The Art program is a vendor just like the onboard shops or casino. The art program maintains the dedicated onboard art gallery and holds gallery hours daily. Typically auctioneers will also host 1-2 hour seminars on sea days on different art topics. The most well known event the Art Director holds are the at sea auctions. Typically every sea day there will be an art auction that will last about 3 hours with a 2-3 hour "preview" before hand where guests can come view the art and inquire if they are interested in purchasing any. Lastly, we build relationships with the passengers and hang out with them during their cruise at cruise events, dinner, shows and bars. On Port days we're off having fun!

The staterooms are for the officers and can be from 1 to 6 racks, and the CO and XO have their own spaces like the director's cabin, but the CO has a much bigger space. Also, the CO has an "in port" cabin and an "at sea" cabin lol.

It would be for me, personally, yes. WORST would be to have a room mate who wants to be all social with me, and works the same shifts as I do. Better would be to have someone willing to just do his/her own thing and leave me to do mine. Better than that would be to have a room mate who works a different shift than I do. But I think that a line that cared would make the effort to pair people who work different shifts. And all those would just be luck of the draw... I wouldn't mind sharing a bath room, so long as they cleaned up after themselves....

I always had a single dorm in college and looking back I wish I had a roommate then because I feel like as an only child and then having had a single dorm in college I’ll never have that experience of having shared a room with another person who isn’t my romantic partner. And i feel like it’s probably a good experience to have / a good exercise in empathy, patience, and tolerance! But as an American I haven’t really figured out how to crack the code of applying for these jobs since they seem to mostly only be available to people from other countries when I browse for the job listings for things I’d be qualified to do (which isn’t much haha). My background is in film and television production, mostly experience working on set in the production department, so I think being able to make call sheets and stuff would be a transferable skill to making the daily agenda or doing something audio / video related with my technical skills or making highlight reels or something to show the passengers with my video editing skills…. Any idea what job on a ship I’d be qualified for?
