WHAT I EARN Working for HARDING RETAIL, in the SHOPS onboard CRUISE SHIPS.

[@jamespn]

Since you have no rent or food expenses, stay away from the bars and bank some of your salary automatically into a retirement account, your future older self will greatly appreciate it.

everything depends on ships and mangers and their not always very nice. Some have no clue how to treat people. The money hasn’t changed in years. I did spend 9 years working for them and most the time I did enjoy it and seen some amazing place made some great friends.

I finished 1 contract with Starboard and I absolutely LOVED to work at the Logo Store, it was my favorite place. Promo tables I didn't like at all. Now I am applying for Harding Retail, wish me luck!

I have applayed for harden like a week now and I haven't heard back from them. Is that okay or should I reapply again?

[@auwz66]

Genuinely shocked at the salary of around £700 a month. I appreciate you are on a cruise ship and that they are providing food and a room but from the sounds of it you are still working a good few hours a week, 10am till 11pm even 3 days a week is working back at £5/hr. Dont forget your only young once and you will slowly run out of energy so make as much money as you can in your younger years because when you get older it wont be as easy to work long hours. Also dont underestimate the opportunity loss you may have by not having property. So whilst you may clear for example £1000 a month after bonus if you had a job on land that was clearing you £1000 after mortgage and bills you actually (in the long term) have more than that because the appreciation in the property value. Also the fact that every year you work on a ship the cost to get on the property ladder increases so you end up further behind the curve. Anyway, dont want to come across as teaching you to suck eggs or anything you clearly know what you are doing so I hope it all works out for you.

[@MauriceMamba]

I agree with you. I think most of the People who work on cruise ships just want to travel , or are running away from life’s problems. But considering the Hours that they put in, an the low salaries, it really ain’t worth it. Plus like you said, what about home ownership etc. plus who wants to live in those small Rooms for long stretches at a time. If I’m traveling , I can deal with living on a ship for a Week. But if I have to stay for any length of Time longer than that , it’s going to be a problem.

@@MauriceMamba As a guy who is 28 and has been working since I was 16, I disagree with you, I've spent years working for people, stuck in the rat race, making a nice amount of money... I'm literally miserable, became depressed, let myself go... 10, 12 hours five days a week, all the time in a small room with a few monitors, its just not worth the money. If you get a loan for a house you are basically set yourself to run the rat race for the next 30 years... Its not worth it, money isn't everything... the more money I have, the more miserable I am.

[@bewater8417]

That's horrible pay. Having no rent or food to pay is no argument whatsoever. As a service technician on land hotels are paid for by the company and daily rates for food apply too. And as an offshore service technician on wind turbines for example you get hazard pay for being out in the ocean additionally for your normal hourly rate. In Germany it's usually 100€ a day just for being out in the ocean before salary. Food and bed taken care of too. And you work 14 days 12h per day and 14 days off time afterwards. Meaning 1400€ for 2 weeks only for being out in the ocean. These people are getting taken advantage of big time.
