@@ridernikkolson6594 Because it’s funny. Designed to make people do this thing called laugh - makes you feel happy for a moment and less serious. Try it.
I'm a regular cruiser. I just wanted to say that I appreciate all of the hard work you guys put in to make my criusing experience great! Thank you for all that you do! Currently on Icon of the Seas.
I'm 36 and wasted the past 11 years in corporate IT, going nowhere and not wanting another IT job. I want out but don't know what I'd rather be doing. I'd give everything to rewind back to the early 2010s and try a different career. I used to live near a massive container port and wondered what working on those ships would have been like.
I'm right with yall. Born is 77. Younger people are so lucky with the internet and social media to learn about and have so many more possibilities. I have a HUGE student loan debt I'll be paying off forever. Grad school wasn't worth it and wouldn't have gone knowing what I know now. Would've totally done things different.
Aww, thanks for sharing! Ever since my first cruise (10/2023) on Oasis of the Seas ❤, I've been interested in the lives of those who work on a cruise, so thanks! I'm looking forward to learning more from your videos! P.S. I love that ship and my room w/balcony! Looking forward to my next cruise this October, 24.
I love how if you work out you will be around the performers. Everyone just working out doing their own thing. Guests don’t bother the performers if you are an avid gym member. It’s not a social location.
I wish more places had thought of the curtains. Youth hostels etc. generally don't have them and it would take out a large part of the anxiety and awkwardness of sharing a room. The last time I was in that situation I shoved a few towels up there to form a makeshift barrier.
That's nice that you get to use the guest gym and use they guest track. You must be on a special contract. The crewmembers have to use the crew gym and aren't allowed in guest areas at all unless you are working. I started our working as a junior waiter but then later on worked in the medical center as a secretary so I was a striped officer and was allowed to use some of the guests amenities.
Personally I feel it’s totally unfair that only certain staff members or striped officers can access all the guest areas. I myself felt like a nobody when I was working as a restaurant steward. It was low-paying, not many perks or benefits, rarely was able to eat in the guest restaurants, and had some bad experiences with my head dept manager. Why can’t cruise ships be fair to ALL their crew members, and treat them the same as officers. Not fair for people in entry-level positions to get the crappy cabins, less quantity of food, and such minimal pay. 🤦🏼♂️
@@austinjones3856 i accepted my conditional offer to work as res steward on norwegian. what did your shifts look like? was it actually split shifts? or long, grueling, straight 13-14 hrs shifts? also when you fly to where your ship is, did you go on business class? my questions are weird but i'm honestly so curious and i can't find answers to these questions anywhere. just ppl that are higher class and in entertainment showing all the great benefits they get and i just know it's not the same for us lol.
I loved working on a cruise ship in my youth! Worked only 6 months a year and after a long voyage, seeing all the stacks of cash just from tips in my safe was worth every nagging, whiney person who asked me the same questions over and over because reading the printed signs is too hard that I had to smile and assist worth it.
Working a cruise ship as a young person is probably even more awesome than being a long haul flight attendant. You get paid to see the world, you're paid dolla dolla and don't have many expenses, and it must be like college/university in that you're surrounded by a ready-made young peer group and can do all sorts of cool stuff (group holidays, parties, sex etc.) together.
@@halfbakedproductions7887 it is for sure!! There's a wide range of ages on the cruise ships but yes it was awesome having a huge friend group and we are all still friends. Loved all the excursions while on board. The best though was the swingers and the parties they would throw.
I applaud you!!! My paranoia would never allow me to work on a cruise ship because as ridiculous as it sounds, the whole Titanic thing would live in my brain…absolutely ridiculous I know😳
It's not ridiculous. If you got trapped in a sinking ship in the middle of the ocean, it would be a really dangerous situation. Who knows if rescue crews would reach in time? And drowning is one of the worst ways to go. But I've always been afraid of the open ocean as far as I can remember, so I may be biased on this
I appreciate all the Royal Caribbean crew so so much!!! I’ve been on 22 cruises with RC and my mom is a diamond we always feel like family on RC love you guys so so much thank you for everything
@@IAG-Co-Ltd I work at a non profit and take 2 cruises a year pre-covid. I don't come from money. 22 cruises could be achieved if you book WAY in advance. And if you live in a port city,too?! You can EASILY hit 22 cruises with those $300 7nt cruises
I love going on cruises with Royal and Carnival and seeing staff that are around that I have talked with in the past. Had an art auctioneer that recognized and remembered our names over both cruise lines and several cruises. He has even brought us to art galleries and was literally our tour guide. Staff are always so sweet.
This looks like so much fun. I’m used to hard work so I don’t mind that, I would work twice as hard if I got to see what cruise ship staff see every day. And the RCCL staff food/parties don’t look too bad either! Awesome video.
Did this for almost six years was a lifeboat commander and all but it's alot of hard work apart from the fun my Husband still does it but I don't any more.
The job sucks, I worked for American cruse lines and it was the worst job ever, I think worst than working at an airport 😂, gotta work 7 days a week and 12 hour shifts for $1000 bucks a week..not for me
Same. We just got back from our first cruise and I just wish we could tour how the staff live and work on the boat. One of the hostesses on board the Royal Caribbean was from the Philippines. She said they work 6 months on and 2 months off. I would love to meet and work with people from all over the world. They worked very hard to make our experience memorable.
It’s great that you’re making the most of a job that honestly looks really hard. But it does also seem like you love what you do and I think thats great. I’m going to be leaving for a cruise in a few days and I’m really excited!
Me too i miss her somthing awful just being away from her for ten minutes! But honestly but my dog wouldn't be happy. she prerfers her walks and being outside on land. Plus the ship isn't always steady, she would get so sea sick🥺
4-9 month contracts where shifts are long and you're on call to work 24/7 and live in basically a college dorm. Add taking care of a dog on top of that? No thanks
depends on the prescription and what you are being treated for :-) but if it is okay -- you ask your doctor for a prescription for the length of time of your contract
@@ambermac77 no it doesn't work for all - but first you have to get medically approved for working on the ship. And if you are using a controlled substance....depending on what it is.... you may not get approved for working on a ship.
I worked as a youth councillor for Carnival Cruises. It was the best time of my life. My cabin was also below the water line. 😁 I never really thought about it. We were out around the ship everyday with Camp Carnival so I got lots of sea air. 😂 If you get the opportunity to work on board a cruise ship, go for it. 🥰 X

Cool thank you for showing us what it’s like in the living space and getting up and yes it would be beautiful to see the ocean in the sunrise with water all around you wanna ship like that beautiful. How long do you stay on for? What kind of work do you do? Do you get enough time for eight hours of sleep?
My friend got the job. Went. And couldn’t deal with how small it was either. Had to pay her own way home and was stuck in Hawaii. Alone. For 3 days til we could get her home
I like small spaces, so this would be comfortable for me. But the open ocean unsettles me, so I don't think I could ever get comfortable on a cruise ship regardless of accommodation type
I worked on a cruise ship and I hated it. You work 15 hours a day 7 days a week for shitty pay. I unfortunately got S/A working on it and it screwed up my mental health. Not every thing you see online is glamorous…
Man, im so sorry you've experienced that! I have friends who've worked for several cruise lines & have said the same thing! Some good & some bad! How much were your wages, if you don't mind me asking?
Girl omg thanks for sharing. I worked for a family on a large yacht for a while. Times i miss the views and happy moments with the family. Anyway take care
That will never be shown because it will hit the news and there will be a media frenzy on how bad conditions are for the majority of cruise ship crews. Their life is essentially 11 hours of work a day, you’re not allowed out of crew areas, you work 9-10 months without a day off, you get no pension, you get no sick pay, you do not get paid when you’re off the ship even if you’re a permanent employee and returning and all of this at the great, great salary of $4/hr (and you don’t get tips).

I haven’t seen any of your other vids but I’m very confident when I say that I believe you work on a Royal Caribbean Cruise ship. I’ve been on one and they are so amazing the staff was so kind
That bathroom is pretty nice for shipmates. Nice and clean and enough room to actually get ready and the room set up is pretty good as well but the bunks could definitely be a bit longer and roomier.
yall hate on bigger people for not working out, then turn around and hate on them for working out and trying to be healthy/lose weight whatever their reasoning is. make it make sense. ur pathetic
I wish people would make videos where they show the honest truth about working on a cruise ship that after all is said and done you’re probably making about eight dollars an hour making really lousy tips if any because there’s always someone above you who is in charge of collecting the tips and then they count them up pocket a bunch of money from selves and then distribute whatever is left over. You’re not going to get work rich working on a cruise ship I’ll guarantee you that. I guess it’s a good way to save money if you don’t mind making only six or eight dollars an hour for work that you would be making $18 an hour era resort somewhere on the lamb.
There are a lot of different truths. For most of the crew their day is long and busy. I'm a musician on ships, i only work at night so my port days consist of me going ashore, exploring, eating nice food and drinking cocktails. My sea days involve me lounging around in my cabin watching Netflix. People with jobs like mine are the ones making videos, because no one is bragging about working for 14 hours.

That's what I read when I thought about applying on Indeed. No time off, long days and pay isn't good for what you work
@@brassholio1% gets day off and only for white or westerners bruh
That curtain for the bed is something I want so bad, bc my parents break in my room like "whatcha doin?!"
Damn, the comments are legit so mean for no reason. Keep doing you girl
I don't see any means comments lol
@@rae7739there here trust!
@@rae7739They're lots of ignorant comments by ignorant jackasses who of course aren't showing their own pic in their thumbnails? The ones who do should NOT be trying to insult this girl for damn sure?
They are just misogynistic men with no profile pictures.
Keep up the good work. To all the people in the comments it is better to work little then not at all.
Erica I worked on the pride of America for two years in Hawaii. Love your channel
Very interesting. To be honest, I never thought about this perspective! Thanks for sharing ❤
I worked for celebrity many years ago. Met the Love of my life.❤
Awww! So sweet!❤
I was told love never exists in the vessels.
The fact I just applied to work on one
Good luck! I hope you get the job.
Don’t do it
@@QueensBronxNYwhy not?
@@ancientbeautymiyah the reviews are horrible online and there’s a few videos from a chef that used to work there on TH-cam
As a restaurant department employee I would’ve NEVER had time to do all this 😂😂
I was wondering myself like which department are u to b free especially on a sea day, thought she'd say entertainment 🤣
Definitely staff...not server
What about laundry department? Is it good .. im going to join soon
Don’t stop working out! Go even on the day you don’t feel like going !
This is so cool to watch. Thank you for sharing
THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU AND YOUR CREW DO!!💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
So did you record yourself all night or did you wake up set the camera up then get back in bed and film like a wake up scene?😂
The second one cause she's just showing how her day was through reenactment
Wtf. Why is there so many mean comments on here.
It's called the human race😅. You bunch of cry babies. Criticism is food for the soul of a champion 🏆.
cause shes not a 120lb skinny blonde chick
It seems to be a YT shorts thing specifically, all these shorts have crazy comments
@@SocksPropagandait's everywhere,IG,FB. These folks are just nasty. Knowing damn well they don't have the nerve to say this shit to someones face! They say they do but you know they wouldn't. I never say something I wouldn't say to someones face. But I am older. These folks that act this way must be truly miserable, hateful folks. That blame everyone for their failures. It truly sad. The hate people receive with sick children is just really over the top. My whole life changed after an accident I have different,views and thoughts than these miserable subhumans.
I've yet to see one lol
Guess they've been buried.
I haven’t seen any of your other vids but I’m very confident when I say that I believe you work on a Royal Caribbean Cruise ship. I’ve been on one and they are so amazing the staff was so kind
That bathroom is pretty nice for shipmates. Nice and clean and enough room to actually get ready and the room set up is pretty good as well but the bunks could definitely be a bit longer and roomier.
There's noway we believe that big girl works out 😂😂😂😂
yall hate on bigger people for not working out, then turn around and hate on them for working out and trying to be healthy/lose weight whatever their reasoning is. make it make sense. ur pathetic
Why is my feed full of cruise ship videos 😂
Algorithm
Mines is too al of a sudden! Lol
it's a sign, Bro! lol
i just got off the wonder of the seas (the ship i think this is) yesterday and it was awesome!! thank you for sharing!!
I honestly would love that.
Can you tell us about your meal in the cruise? Do you need to pay or no?
no
room and board are part of your compensation package -- that is why you would sometimes get paid less hourly than on land.
Nope! Not on Royal at least most of the food is included besides the specialties you pay separately for that! Hope this helps❤️
Looks so fun! ❤
I wish people would make videos where they show the honest truth about working on a cruise ship that after all is said and done you’re probably making about eight dollars an hour making really lousy tips if any because there’s always someone above you who is in charge of collecting the tips and then they count them up pocket a bunch of money from selves and then distribute whatever is left over. You’re not going to get work rich working on a cruise ship I’ll guarantee you that. I guess it’s a good way to save money if you don’t mind making only six or eight dollars an hour for work that you would be making $18 an hour era resort somewhere on the lamb.
18 an hour is trash lol
are you calculating the room and board in your calculations?
Resort somewhere on the lamb? That sounds a bit sheepish ...
There are a lot of different truths. For most of the crew their day is long and busy. I'm a musician on ships, i only work at night so my port days consist of me going ashore, exploring, eating nice food and drinking cocktails. My sea days involve me lounging around in my cabin watching Netflix. People with jobs like mine are the ones making videos, because no one is bragging about working for 14 hours.
"And you can't forget to turn off the lights to save the waves" 😂 Loved to see this pov!
If I wasn't absolutely terrified of the ocean, this would be an awesome job 😄
“I really wanted to work out this morning” 💀🤓
it’s ok love, sometimes people want to take care of themself
@@mikudayo_biggest_fan3939 its a joke and thanks for calling me love needed to hear that
Ong she know damn well she don’t workout 😂😂
yall hate on bigger people for not working out, then turn around and hate on them for working out and trying to be healthy/lose weight whatever their reasoning is. make it make sense. ur pathetic
@@Black18044just bc you are lazy and hate your body doesn’t mean she does. Stop projecting yourself
Eggs,beans and oatmeal?? Bathroom time after that😅!! But do what you gotta do!!
I love that she points out a water tight door and a life boat like ah nice good to see we’ve learned something since 1912
What ship do you work on? My family and I go on cruise ships almost every year. My favorite ship was probably harmony
I know that exercise is good for you but sometimes more sleep is better for you. Get your proper rest
"workout"
Yeah....

Not everyone starts healthy, fat people lose weight by working out. Moids are so bitter filled they hate to see other people try to Bette themselves
Another moid being unpleasant yet wondering why society doesn’t care for m a l. E s
This actually helps me kinda cause I'm thinking of working on a cruise ship. Thank youu!!
Thw crew has the best parties. Almost snuck into one. It was so lit 😩
If you think that water tight door is special, you should see my favorite one!! It's amazing!! 🚪
Watching the water at night is even better. Kind of creepy bc it just looks empty for miles, but it's definitely a beautiful view.
You said you weren’t looking that good??? I think you’re a doll🤩🥰
Beans for breakfast is very a very important addition. Makes the rest of your day more....
I loved the gratitude 🥰🥹
Lol!! I've been on that cruise ship! It was so fun!!!
I’ve been in this ship and it was amazing 😂 I’d definitely get jealous of the ones that had slides though 😮
I was on a cruise ship you worked on in 2015! So cool that you still do this
You just motivated me to go work out this morning❤🙏
Which ship are you currently on? And which rank/job? 👑
cruise ship work seams perfect for me because
*i love tight spaces
*i am great at answering questions
*i like water
*i wouldnt have to worry about housing on the job
On the two cruises I went on with my family, this was genuinely my mom’s morning routine on those trips.
She’s an early riser and so she went for a few laps of the deck before my aunt, dad and I woke up 😊
I’m so excited for my new Career Path! After being in Healthcare for almost 37 years; and Healthcare NO longer being about HEALTHCARE, I have decided to change my career path and focus on MY RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, MY Health and Wellbeing! I have put others Health, Happiness and Wellbeing before
Keep making videos. I enjoy these. I can't wait to live and work on sea.😊
