I worked on a cruise ship that Sergey Nazarov was also onboard.

Man, was he rude. When the buffet was served he barged through everyone else to be first in line, and when he sat back down he would always pick off other people's plates, even if they were sat a different table.

At the pool he would frequently divebomb, splashing everyone. The lifeguard tried to stop him but he would just scream at them, so they gave up.

I remember very clearly how his cabin had a 'toilet malfunction', making it overflow and spread shit onto the corridor.

What an asshole

I've seen adds for the same job and thought about doing this as a bartender.

Most places the bartender has more power because you can leverage the booze against a lot of people. They can't really rat you out for giving then a little extra free booze so hopefully I can get some qt pie to suck my dick and make the 12 hour days worth it.

I worked 80+ hours a week working retail managing a shoe store and only barely cleared 45k a year and was literally always on call.... So you really pick you slave house anon.

Just don't spend any of the fucking money and buy a house or invest and it'll be worth getting pissed on for 3 months

what you better doing is something tech, if you can get into it. Know ppl do/did sound+lighting, they were safe because no other fucker knew how to operate anything, reasonable hours, reasonable accommodation, got left alone and didn't get shit on. The rest, bar staff, 'entertainers', got fucked big time, incredible hours, pretty much sharing a shift bed, etc.

I once pooped and threw it at a wall on a cruise ship. I called one of they crew over and made a janitor clean it up. It was one of the best feelings in the world, making degenerates like yourself clean up my poop. I went back to my room and masturbated to the thought of that twink cleaning my poop off the wall.

Cruises are fine, but it depends what company you go with. Some of them have quite a lot of fun things to do onboard, but some are basically just floating casinos.

Depends on the type of cruise and the "class" of cruise. If you are going for a $100 budget experience dont bother. You'll need to spend about 1500-1900 per person to get the "VIP" experience. Some ships are actual cesspools and others are luxurious beyond belief. I personally sail Norwegian and I also have been on the Queen Mary 2. Amazing experiences every time. You get dumb drones like OP at your whim. My other post >>15252387 really shows how far they'll go for you. On one trip they even let me bring a local prostitute back on the ship without question. But do not use carnival or a shitty budget brand cruise. Always go premium or go home, because you'll be stuck on that shithole for a week.

Worked in entertainment (showband) for 6 months. Being a server will probably suck because of the heavy workload but there is a lot of cheap booze at the crew bar and thirsty foreign women trying to get greencards. But if you make friends with people who work in the spa you will get laid. Thank me later.

Wouldn't be bad if you are fat. You would lose weight working 105 hours a week, you'd save up good money. Honestly doesn't sound like a bad deal if you just force yourself through it. Depends on what they make you pay for (food, etc.)

My family (and usually by proxy me) sail Royal Caribbean and Princess regularly. We are basically maxed out on the loyalty programs for reasons so we have access to the more exclusive lounges. Thats the gig you want OP, no sure what line youre working for but being a waiter in the loyalty club is the gig. Very low stress and everyone there is refined and polite, no riff raff makes it to that level. At the end of every cruise you rake in good tips. Im mid 20 so I just go there to fill water bottles with free booze for later. I've been on 35-40 cruises in my life so I know all the tricks to cheat and jew the system. AMA if you want
