If you want more Disney Cruise Line secrets, watch me spill ALL of the tea from my cabin on the ship! This video will go private again soon, so watch while you can! th-cam.com/video/439aKY6OcP4/w-d-xo.html
I’ve been on 7 Disney cruises and never knew that this was how the workers were treated I see so many people throwing shade at the workers especially the life guards.
7! Thats amazing! Thank you for watching!
working on a cruiseline sounds so intense, i understand a lot of employees on the ship are foreigners and are used to working long hours, but for americans who work onboard, my hat goes off to you. It would be much nicer if they had more crew members and alternated the shifts to where you're only working 8-10 hours a day instead of 12-16. One set of crew members works 8-4 and the other works 4-12 or so.
Yes but to house so many crew members wouldn't be beneficial to the cruise lines. I think this is why its so rare to find Americans working on cruise ships!
@@TeenG I'm thinking of signing up to do this once everything in the world clears up. Do you think the shortage of United States workers willing to work the hours would make them seem more favorable and hireable?
The reason foreigners work on board is the same reason they move to other countries
Money my fried
Is not because we are use to work long hours
In Brazil were I am from we work 8 hours a day and we have several laws to protect us for example if we get sacked we will receive a salary until we get another job ( max 6 months).
First time I worked long shifts was in a cruise ship. When I lived in England I have had long shifts as well in a coffee shop I worked 12 hours with 20/20 min breaks.
You and your bestie Rochelle(sp?) are ADORABLE.
Thank you!! Thank you for watching and supporting!!
This whole "Not allowed in guest areas without special privileges" seems ridiculous! If you're not in uniform the guests won't realize you're an employee anyway.
I thought that in the beginning too, but i started to understand it because if you let every department on the ship have the same privileges, there could be 1,000 crew members lounging by the guest pools. Guests would be paying so much and have no where to sit, etc. I know where they are coming from too!
SHOUTOUT TO THIS BRAZILIAN CREW MEMBER!!! I'm brazilian too!
We have so many Brazilian crew members!
Fab video, we love DCL and I’m obsessed with these kind of back stage vids, thank you
I am so happy you enjoyed it!! I am a big fan of guest sailing too! I love a cruise vacation!
We LOVE Sophia! She’s our favorite.❤️
SHE IS INCREDIBLE! One of a kind!
OMG Luciano, I worked with him in Costa, such a nice guy
YES! He worked on Costa before this! Thats so crazy!
Oh my gosh!!! Your job looks like so much fun! I live in Canada and I'm hoping to get into the online international course at the Disney College and get myself a work visa so I would be able to work with DCL. This video really made me smile! :)
It was definitely fun at times! I hope that you get into the international course too! I am so glad that this video made you smile!
I am so glad that I came across your channel! You have a new subscriber!
💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
Thank you so much! You are so sweet thank you for supporting!
The Palo soufflé is fire. Just had it last week
This is so cool! Bc I’ve been on the Disney dream and I live right near port Canaveral! And so I probably saw you lol
Thats so awesome! How fun to be able to live near the ships!
Gianna Alexis yes it definitely is
We can hear them from our house
Oh god first contract 😂. Just be glad you aren’t a galley steward or have all the special cleanings. Enjoy the crew mess!
Yes I was very lucky to be in the position that I was in!
Just curious how the "privileges" work? How do they determine who can do thinks like go to upper decks and who can't? I'm at WDW as an attendant right now on a CP but just applied to BBB on DCL since most of my experience before Disney is at Sephora so I thought it would be a good fit and now I'm so curious about all these things.
It all depends on your department and your ranking. So smaller departments tend to have more privilages because if you let 15 people go to the upper decks its a lot less crowded then having a department of 300 allowed to go up.
omg I met ur shopping trainer, she's really nice, and gave us a gift once
She is the absolute best!
Being a performer in the Walt Disney theatre is my dream job✨✨✨ just wondering, do you get to keep your name tag after your contract is over?
Yes! I hope you get your dream!
This is so wild- we were on the previous cruise before you got on on October 20th 2017. Our last night was October 19th! So wild.
OMG!! Thats so crazy! Did you love your cruise?
Teen G Yes! We loved it it was our first halloween on the ship. We’re platinum members and have been on plenty LOL. When you said October 2017 I was like wait a minute. Love your videos!
Cool adventure, thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for watching!
Teen G it was easy :)
That look in the thumbnail. Wow 😍
Thank you so much!
hello I just had my first interview for working in disney cruise line and I am quite nervous to leave my country to live this experience (I am french) but I am more confident seeing your video... thank you hope to be able to rock ! :)
Good luck! I am cheering you on! Let me know if you have any questions!
@@TeenG thank you very much. I just had the answer yesterday after my interview with american recruter and it is positive ! still making all the process for visa stuff. I will keep watching your videos it is really interesting.
I gave this video a thumbs up because it was posted on my birthday
Amazing!
Nice vlog I like it...
Good job G .
Thank you! Thanks for watching and supporting!!
I’m wondering what you mean by “the Disney look.” Specifically are there height and weight requirements? You mentioned your nose ring. What else is banned?
Tatoos
These are the Disney Look guidelines! parksjobs.disneycareers.com/the-disney-look
What is is being crew staff like if you know and if plz make a vid on it😃
I am not too sure what it is like! I am sorry!
Were you allowed to wear tank tops, crop tops and mini skirts/shorts??
What ship were you on, ive been on the dream once, fantasy twice, magic once and I’m going on the magic again in November! I’m really excited because I want to meet my friends I made last time on the magic (they are youth councillors) that I met in October 2017
The Disney Dream! I love the magic! How fun! Thank you for watching!
Just subscribed! Love your videos! You seem very genuine!!!!
Thank you so much! This was so sweet! Thank you for watching and subscribing! I appreciate it more than you know!
If you got into trouble for something, could you tell them “i was just going with the flow”? i bet not.. So why the hell can they tell you that during training and when asking questions? A setup for failure? Anyone in training, i wouldn’t take that. Do your self a favor and be persistent and get your questions answered. Don’t be worried about looking like a pest. Most of us know what a pest is and sounds like.. Being persistent getting your questions answered is not it.. Most would call that Sharp... On top of things... Eager... etc. Nothing worse than being on the job and having no idea what to do.
I think its hard for the shoreside trainers because many of them have never been on the ship and don't know the answers. You are so right! Thank you so much for watching!
Know anything about working as a character on the cruise ships? I hears somewhere that the same person is playing that character for the entire cruise and they dont alternate between people like they do in the parks and i was just curious
Were u allowed to party for christmas halloween snd new years on board
Wait so if you don’t have privileges you can’t go to the upper decks at all? Like even if you’re not working? Also how does that work for like eating the guest food at the poolside places and stuff?
Correct! You cannot eat guest food at the poolside places unless you have privilege to do so and very few people have that!
I’m interested in being apart of Disney course line as chef do you have any intale on the chef’s
you look good in all the gear
Thank you !
I have heard nothing but horror stories about working any of the cruise lines. Basically no rules at sea. They work you till u fall over
I would say that's pretty accurate!
@@TeenG Former Show Control WDT .... I can confirm
I find myself routing for you guys
Thank you so much!! That is so kind ❤️
have u heard from Rochelle did she ever try for fairy god mother?
She moved back home and had a baby!
Disney cruise line open
Yes!
thanks for the video, but i stopped watching due to the volume levels, very loud in beginning, then almost no sound about 1.3 mins in.
Sorry, there's a difference between my phone and my camera quality. Thank you for almost watching.
Is it need to go through the shore side training before every time join the ship / only first time.
Curious, how come different crew gets different privileges?
Smaller departments get more privilages because if they go to a restaurant no one will notice. If a department with 400+ members is allowed to go to a restaurant there would be no room for guests!
@@TeenG cool. They should really do nights where just the cast member can do something. There is so much for the guest on board that if one area was shut down or "private event" they would never know the difference. Also, I understand the love hate relationship with Disney. My daughter was in the College Program and was a full time employee after. Agree 100 % on the medical. They could do way better for you guys. She now works for Universal and loves it.Also, there are "college" type programs(you dont have to be in college) all over the country you could work ... on LAND. 😂🤣 2 years ago she worked at the grand canyon for 6 months and this past year she worked in Alaska for 6 months. Now she is talking about going over seas. Lol
Could I kindly ask what role you were in? I live in the UK so I’d love to know how your friend applied - so far all I can find on the DCL UK jobs page is contractor companies in France 😵💫. TIA!
What's the other necklace? ♥️Name Necklaces!
Thank you!! One is my name and the other is the Chicago Flag!
I could never never live like that with all those people and be responsible for a lot lol. Omg idk how any of you guys can do all that and be with each other all the time. I would cry and tell everyone to get the hell away from me.
LOL! I felt like that sometimes!

Hi did the youth counsellors get different privileges to you ?
Is there no contract to working on the Disney ships?
There is!
I enjoyed your video, but let me pass on some wise experience I've acquired over the years when it come to "asking questions" - especially if you're the kind of person who likes to ask a lot of questions, as you mentioned. Here's what I've learned that will best serve your interests:
(1) People, including teachers, really don't like to be asked a lot of questions. You would think they do, but deep down they really don't. That doesn't mean they don't mind being asked a question here and there - which leads to the next point,
(2) Only ask a question when you truly do not understand something and that "something" is going to be a "direct" responsibility of yours. This situation is different from asking a bunch of questions out of just "curiosity" or amusement - those kind of questions will get on people's nerves because much of what you will ask will likely be eventually covered. So, only ask something that (a) you truly don't understand and (b) it's something you will absolutely need to understand for you to continue to the next part of whatever it is you're learning. As someone suggested "just go with the flow."
(3) and the most important point of all, especially if you're ever in a supervisory position or position of authority ...Only ask questions that you already know the answer to. While that might sound kind of dumb - give it time, as you get older and more experienced in life, you will come to see the wisdom and benefit of this. It will help you see who (above you or below you) truly knows their stuff. This point comes right out of Donald Trump's book "The Art of the Deal." Read it. Forget what you might personally think of him, it will teach you a lot about people, their personality types and how to deal with others. You might not realize it, but you're always "negotiating" with others in everything you do - even in a relationship or marriage. There's a lot to be learned from people who are successful, and he has certainly been successful, no matter his personal attributes.
I think you're a good person, with a good attitude and most importantly, a good work ethic - and that will always serve you well. I wish you the very best of luck! :-)
Thank you so much for this comment. I read all of it and I really appreciate you taking the time to write this comment. I also appreciate you watching the video!! Thank you!
@@TeenG Good luck to you....I'll keep my fingers crossed that you find the kind of career you want! ;-)

Lol there's that too!
🧑🍳🙏❣️⚓
Love the videos does rochelle have a you tube page or IG?
Not that I know of!
What do you mean she didn't have the same privileges
I think it means that depending on your position and ranking. you might NOT be allowed into public spaces on the ship. This is the difference between "Crew" (lowest ranking), Staff (middle) and officers (top with all privileges). Crew usually cant enter public spaces other than for work and using full working suits. Some staff do have the permission to wander around the ship public spaces, and very few have the full privileges of entering the restaurants to eat and/or use the facilities. Officers pretty much can do whatever they please I guess.
It makes sense that crew don't eat with passengers and lounge around the public pool areas. Officers are on view to use their personal skills & ocean/ship knowledge to schmooze with passengers.
Did you recently have a baby?
No
What kind of question is that?
