- People often ask me WHY have a job that takes you to sea for 6+ months...
Here are the perks!
As always if you have any questions or there’s anything you want to see, let me know!

Those perks are attractive only when you are young, uncommitted and have no fixed expenses. It is not something you really can combine with family and family life.
Errrrr ship life is obviously not for people with kids and a wife,unless you are from a very poor country
@@marksmith8732 if you work in the marine side of the ship, not the hotel side, the captain and other officers often have their families at home and some work two months on two months off at at time.
@@samthepoet107 yes that could well be true , I worked as casino manager.
Its easier if you marry a girl from the same cruise line as they pair you up in a cabin.
Knowing how bad I am with money, I'd probably spend all my money on tours and gifts, but I'm still going to try and have a job in the cruise industry, seems like a life experience.
depending on how your company pays you, you can automatically send a certain percentage of your paycheck to your home bank electronically...... My ship pays crew twice per month and I have it automatically set up so that 90% of my pay gets send to my home bank into my savings account :)
Patrick Grace-Ginley sameee LMFAO
One of my new biggest inspirations! I wanna get to work on cruise ships and everyone says it's wrong for so many reasons but OMG SHE JUST GAVE ME BACK ALL THE MOTIVATION I LOST
I am with Princess15 years. I am a stripe officer now. Would not do anything else.
Ship Life is like.....
• Days of the week become countries
• You have to turn on the TV to see the weather outside
• When almost every night as soon as you close your eyes the alarm goes off
• Happy hour can be every hour.
• Where you can get drunk for $5 or less in the crew bar.
• Hangovers can be blamed on seasickness
• Hours back determine when parties are
• You haven’t had 10 minutes alone since you walked onboard
• Arriving at a new country usually consists of sleeping in and finding the free wi-fi
• Sleeping in?
• You haven’t known what day of the week it is for 6 months
• Having a liquid lunch in the crew bar
• Being solely responsible for tens of thousands of dollars with no sweat
• Working less than 10 hours is considered to be "an easy day".
• Partying with your bosses
• It’s been 4 days since you’ve stepped outside
• You’ve just spent a 16 hour day with the same people, so you go to dinner and happily spend the rest of the night with them
• Packing is a nightmare
• You can survive with one suitcase of cloths for 6 months
• Seeing the captain at the gym is like seeing a movie star at the supermarket.
• You smile even if you’re having a bad day
• When you’re in the real world you stop yourself from saying hello to random people walking past you
• Walking across the hallway and knocking replaces the need for a mobile phone
• If you get a job on land you’ll feel naked without a name badge
• You’re so far from home but seem to be surrounded by your family.
• You have to be a contortionist to shave your legs
• When you talk about how to spend your "hours off" not "days off".
• Trying to identify the food in the crew mess.
And so much more.....
is it worthed then?
@@xitoroman you mean is it worth it ?
The answer is yes , it's a great life depending what job you do, that is very important
@@marksmith8732 I'll be going as an assistant waiter, can I at least earn good tips or be quickly promoted?
@@xitoroman well it depends what you mean by good tips .yes you can get promoted after one contract or apply at another cruise line if you dont .waiters work long hard hours in the dining room because they serve breakfast , lunch, dinner and midnight buffet .you are part of the crew in that position so you eat in the crew mess which depends which country you are from but as a westerner it's not good .if you are Filipino then you may like it .
I would recommend working as a bartender as it's better and not so hard work .
What country are you from ?
@@xitoroman alot of Filipino send money back to there country and build homes
🌸 you're just like a mini mandy moore
abeautifoolmess - I thought the same thing
Freshnisity - I thought the same thing.. lol
I scrolled down to comment how she looks like Mandy Moore, and I immediately saw this post. I guess it's not just me.
This is just superb, I been tryin to find out about "cruise ship work opportunities" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Jiyrianna Peyadelyn Plan - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my m8 got great success with it.
You've got a solid personality that works well in film! Enjoying your videos.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO MANDY MOORE!! 🥰😅 YOU INSPIRE ME A LOT! GOD BLESS YOU!! 💙💙💙💙
Thank you for these videos!! I can't wait to vlog my experiences when this chapter comes! 💗
Great video Michelle! There are also opportunities to work on board river cruises in Europe, you can explore the old continent and make a lot of close friends since the crew size is smaller than on ocean going cruise ship! Get in touch with us if you want to learn more or if you need any help with application (we can help for free!!!).
This was really interesting! Thank you! You have a super sweet and fun personality! Love watching your videos!
Great videos. I wish I had worked cruise ships when I was younger. Enjoy!
Brian Wamsley I wanted to do a 4week internship on a cruiseship when I was younger but I thought I'd be gone doing an exchange year in the US at the same time (which didn't work out) yeah wasted time :D I wonder what I'll do with the rest of my life, cause working on a cruise ship wouldn't be a forever job for me, a couple years would be cool
How funny ! Right before this video I watched a video that told me how bad it SUCKS to work on a cruise ship . Work 75 to 80 hours a week . No sleep . Rice and pasta everyday . Who wants to drink when you haven't slept for 3 days. Get stuck in a cruise ship cabin the size of a small walk in closet WITH A ROOM MATE ! BUNKBEDS OH HOW FUN I'M 6 YEARS OLD AGAIN ! Yeah Mom and Dad I went to college and got the degree in psychology with a minor in finance and now I make beds, clean rooms and sometimes run food out to a buffet but hey ! I get beer for a dollar a pop ! And I'm learning how to speak SWAHILI !
Randy Scott Actually, they won't hire foreigners unless they speak English so there's not to much Swahili floating around.
You’re awfully negative
Yeah, in my 20s. I would have jumped at the chance. New experiences before adult life sets in.
you look so much like Mandy Moore. Am i right?
I have no experience other than cashiering which is sooo boring and too much responsibility and It's not even your money and I'm trying manifest a job on cruise ship bc I dream of traveling and i i love interacting with people. Thank you so much !!
+ robin Kirkland, you will never have to count other peoples money again!
U should add photo also it will add entertainment to ur video and as a viewer we will also enjoy
Keep going
Also, its amazinf because you have a Uniform, so you dont even have to THINK about what to wear in the am! #InnerPEACE!
You got good attitude...a perfect start to life and travel....
Thank you Michelle. Iv been on three vacation cruises on Carnival ships . In the last Cruise was 7 days and I had so much fun . The last day on the 7 day cruise I was on I was putting my luggage out for employees to check on early that morning and I seen a girl by herself that could not lift the heavy bags that were up and down the hallway as you can imagine it is a sight to see I tried to get help for her there was no one that could be found so I helped her do her job for 3 hours that morning till all the bags on her level were taken down below 4 checking . I have been looking into finding a job on a cruise ship where I could be helpful from all the cruises I've been on I could see I could be helpful in a lot of ways on a cruise ship thank you for your video you are a very wonderful attractive fun personality sort of girl cu onboard bye for now Joey Torres⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓⚓l
is it true cruise line workers are working 7 days a week 10 hour days ? if so how do you have time to see or do anything ?
That's true. as mentioned before, you will work every day of your contract- we get hours off not days. however, while I might have a 10 hour day here and there, all days aren't created equal. days at sea are much heavier in hours (as guests are onboard all day) than days in port. since most guests get off to explore, we then obviously need less of us onboard as well to serve them. we may be the one sticking behind sometimes, but we are also able to go out sometimes as well.
If youve ever been on a ship, this is why we ALL look dead after a transatlantic cruise (7 straight days at sea).
right now I'm fortunate enough to be on a ship with 12 day cruises that only have 2 sea days- this means I'm able to see A LOT.
positions will vary though. the senior officers/captain have obviously a lot of responsibility so they will work more/go out less. but they also get paid a lot more for that to be the case, have shorter contract lengths and in some cases, longer vacations as well.
oh yeah, and everytime we finish a contract we get 2 solid months off. work hard, play hard. how many jobs give you that? most where I'm from give 2 weeks a year.
:)
Sounds awesome but not sure I could work 12 hour shifts with no days off for 4 1/2 months.
I've been told employees often have to work while ship is in port. What jobs allow the most time off for excursion time.
jobs where they have to close when in port (casino, shops)
@Zanda Williams the lowest paying job is $700 .The average is usually between $1900- $3600.depending on tips and commission and experience
I have 3 kids working on the ships not same ship siblings not allowed on same ship....They work casino and is always off sumwhere when they dock because the casinos are closed....on sum catamaran or skydiving or swimming with dolphins and on and on they work for an amazing company and earn good money....They have travelled the world...In short my kids thing it's the greatest thing working on a cruise ship so much so that my 4 th son is leaving in 2 mnths...and yes mamma is retiring in style cos they spoil me rotten. ...so young people go for it
Very nice information.. And have great day
The only discounts that are actual discounts is the booze. Everything else is jacked prices to compensate. So yea the beer is a buck BUT everything else isn’t worth the 75+ hours a week
Love watching your videos so much and your videos are very helpful and the best
Hello, love all your videos, I'm on my way to working in cruise ship... See yaaaaa, hopefully
Hey, there! I loved your videos! I'm waiting for a new one!
And I'm also on a selection process.. so, a lot of waiting for me!
I'm going for the JACD position and I should be thinking about what to wear. Everywhere everybody talks about the clothes of the other positions, but I really have no idea about the kind of clothes and shoes that I should have, for the night events, in guests areas. I don't know how fancy should be...
Is that your position? Because if you're not a JACD you should! Haha!
You're really fun and with a lot of charisma! :)
jacd as in junior assistant cruise director? which line?
the best thing to do, if hired, is to ask your scheduler for the email of the cruise director (or whoever your boss will be).
I know my cruise line is different from others, and its changed a lot in 5 years. our assistant cruise directors wear a uniform through out the day- all is provided but they need all-white shoes. at night, they wear their own professional chic clothes, heels etc.. but a couple years ago they wore a night time uniform with panty hose (if a lady) and all black closed toed shoes or heels..which most lines still do.
we also used to have to bring things for theme nights- prepared for 50s night, 80s night etc. now our theme nights are pretty scripted and costumes are provided...
it can all really vary, and that's why my best advice will be to reach out to your boss, find out the nights you'll have, etc. That way you'll have everything you need!
I will be doing a packing video though when I'm packing to leave this ship ;)
hope this helps!
+Michelle Tim thank you so much for your answer! I'll do that! That's a great idea! :)
I'll be waiting for the next videos!
Your video is great and makes me excited
Good video!☺
girl for real super cute, and defffffff looks like Mandy Moore! I LOVE ITTTTTTT
You make a really good case! See you on board. :)
Hello Michelle. i am hoping to and studying to work on a cruise liner i have heard some "Horror" stories about them. like you dont get good pay, managers are nice for a few months then arent and the crew eats nothing but stodgy foods like porridge, rice, pasta and other items. can you please help me thank you. love the video
Why are you just looking for the bad aspects? Focusing on the horror stories will only bring bad times
thank you for the video!!I'm thinking of working as an electrician on a cruise ship
Hi !I did worked on cruise ships for almost 8 years as well,you are speaking only for 3 categories of crew members, high ranking officer, the entertainment staff and youth counselor ,that's why everyone see most of the "positive" videos about Life On Board as a Crewmember is "fantastic" ,because they got plenty time to go out wherever the ships docks,some of them most likely get paid by the Cruise Ship Company or the Recruiting Agencies to make those videos to attract slaves. Speak about mid management(like I was) and regular crew members with all kinda skills and trades,they barely see the outside world of the ship during a contract,if so,they will run to make a phone call to their loved ones, not too far from the ship, or to buy some souvenirs in port, also being constantly bullied 9-14 hours a day by the 3 bars or higher officer/manager. On top of that, the salary discrimination between different nationalities on the same job position offered on board.
@Cindy Dyles how did it go?
Question what line do you work for...
How do I get in, I'm so ready for this!
Your videos are awesome!
You say after a cruise it's important to give it a rating. Where exactly are you referring to? The cruise website? Google? TripAdvisor?
Usually cruise ships either send you an email post cruise to review them or give you a questionnaire to answer before you even leave the ship in your room
In which cruise do you work
You are the cutest!
Thanks!
GorgieClarissa Hi madam I want to work on cruise ship
Jessica Mullen u too
Has anyone ever told you that you look like Mandy Moore?
I am new to your channel and I am binge watching all of your videos. how long do you actually stay on one ship at a time before taking a break and getting to go home?
I'm sure you've been over it in another video but what's your job on board? Any specialties? Firefighting etc? I'm an avid cruiser so I kinda know what crew life is like lol
I was activity host and then went back years later as youth :) We are all actually trained-somewhat- in firefighting as fires are the number one cause of disasters on ships ;)
Michelle Tim nice! Keep up the awesome work with the videos! I really enjoy them!
how much money does someone who works on a cruise ship make in six months?
It is tiring or not.???. I probably choose my course tourism - cruising... !!
And how much is the payment..
I'm actually about to apply for a cruise. But I'm just wondering what job did you have on the ship?
Activity Host for 2 years and Youth Counselor for 1 :)
I work on American Commercial ships and Tankers...I know the money has to be low on them..my Mess Men are my are making about 5000 a month. I was curious what the pay like?
Haha thank you, this was awesome, I will make sure to watch other videos, and it would be really cool to get to work with you on a ship. :))) I might become youth staff on Royal in a few months, and I was wondering what does that look like. Im a kindergarten teacher and I do have a lot of experience but my biggest concern in creativity, meaning will I be able to come up with great ideas fast enough, will they be good enough etc, specially since I cant rely on Pinterest, since I hear internet is really bad and expensive on ships. So do you have activies preplanned by someone else or do you have to plan them alone or with another costaff etc, what does it look like.
Also was any of the crew you met vegan? I have some concerns about that too lol.
Hi I want to work on cruise ship, pls any body help me
How often do you get to work on different ships? As in, some ships are usually around a specific region and do not sail to other parts of the world. Is it common for a crew member to be able to work on a ship that sails Alaska, then on another ship then sails Asia, then another ship that sails North America.
do y'all get to keep all the tips (if you are a bartender, server in some of those places where guests have to pay extra for example) you make or is it split, the cruise line takes a cut, etc? would you say a crew member working in food or beverage service makes more than your typical bartender/server in a restaurant?
I wanted to work for a cruise line are their summer opportunities were cruise ships need employees just for the summer and if so how to I apply
She learned the pink oboe
she is adorably cute
How and where did u have to go to get a job on a cruise ship? Love this video btw
Hey thanks for the video this was great could you maybe do a video on what to pack? how much to pack?
YES! I just ended my current contract and am on my way home. I'll show you guys what I packed by unpacking ;)
To give you an idea before the vid, I only have a carry on and ONE luggage (though most airlines if your flight was booked by the cruise line- and therefore they can tell in their system that you are a 'seaman'- will allow you 2 bags free when flying internationally). Some crew bring one bag and wind up buying a second during their contract for all the stuff they pick up along the way... And some people just require a lot of stuff and bring 2-3 bags outright. It's best (and more comfortable) not to be the later.
Omg thank you also this might be personally but will you be going back on a ship? If so it would be cool to see the process leading up to going on the ship. Have you ever thought about vlogging? Thanks again.
+Atxnovelist I will be back :) I'm for sure going to enjoy my 2 months vacay, but I will be back at some point!
Love your hair.
Hey Michelle! I just got hired in the entertainment department on a ship! I was just wondering how much time you were usually allowed in the ports? I know people work everyday but I just wanted to see if you had any time to experience a lot of these places you went. Love your channel!
Thanks!!
Oh yeah, tons of time. Depending on your schedule it could range from a couple of hours to the entire time the ship is docked (then you work the night when the ship sets sail). The way it generally works in ent is you share the load. When in port, someone always has to stay on the ship, as there are always guests that stay back and don't go out (no idea why they like doing this...the beauty of cruising is the ports...). Anywho, if there are 4 activity hosts (or 4 youth counsellors say), one will stay on with the guests and the other 3 can go out. At night, when the ship sets sail, the 3 that went out take over for the person that had to stay on and the person that worked the day has the night to themselves to relax. And you'd rotate, so you'd work every 4th port day. Everyone works alllllllllll day on an 'at sea' day. Those are the busiest. This is very general. If for some reason lotssss of guests are found to not to be getting back in a certain port or are always coming back early (this comes with experience of certain ports), they may choose to keep 2 people on instead of 1, but it's pretty rare that will happen. You may have to go back to the ship earlier for other duties, like gangway duty, captains club events, general help, etc. These things may not make any sense to you now, but they will when you start ;)
Thanks so much!! I will be in the broadcasting/video department so I hope we get time to experience the ports as much as you did :)
You got friends from India, wow :)
I have sooo many questions. What's a good cruise line to go with if this is your first time? I'm in Saskatchewan (about as far away from the ocean as you can get in Canada) so what are the odds that I would be sent to a doctor near me for the physical? or would I have to do some driving (not sure if this is a question you can answer but i'm an optimist)? I still have yet to find any information on this but what is the training like? I'm assuming it's different depending on the department but what's the general length of time for training and what about if you want to change jobs for your next contract? When your contract is over I remember reading that you can decide when you would like to do your next contract which gives you time for vacation, so if I decide I want to do some traveling between contracts can I ask to be sent to a particular country when my contract is over or is it mandatory to be sent back home? How is the water on the ship? I heard it's very chlorinated. When it comes to rooming is it separated by gender or is it mix and matched? I'm assuming the former because having a bunch of young people in small areas for long periods of time is bound to lead to some hanky panky and no one wants to get pregnant on the ship. I want to go into either retail or entertainment so what can I expect in an interview? What kind of people do your co-workers (crew mates?) tend to be? Any particular jobs on board where previous education and training is a must? I am a 22 year old man (23 by the time I apply) and I would like to bring a stitch plushy on board (because stitch rules and anyone that says different has a cold black heart) so what are the odds I'll be made fun of for that? Also sorry for the long comment.
What cruise line did you work on?
Why not Join the Navy?
cool vid!But who do you working on the ship?can you explain how much tired you are?(after 6+ month of work or during work)what about vid of wrost things in ship life?
Its tiring but the 2 straight months of vacay make up for it :)
Loved your video. I just got my passport. Is there anything else i need to have before I get hired aboard a cruise line? Also, What company do you work for? I want to work for the same.
would you recommend being a chef on the cruise ships or to be a bartender?
Harry Shearman depends what you want to do in the future... I'd say chefs have more of a career path, leading to a well paid executive chef position if you're good, but bartenders can also become bar managers/ f&b managers
@BKTA nah being the casino manager is the best job ,I did it for 4 years
How much is the employee discount that you mentioned?
hey ? am a student and just 17 whilst i want that as soon as i turn up 18 i wanna do cruise job before my college. so do tell me that whatis the duration of contract?
Usually 6-8 months. :)
That's my plan for when I turn 18 next year as well, can't wait.
Kieran Ross same I even wonder what shoes they wear

Many thanks, been searching for "no cruise line experience cruise ship jobs" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Jiyrianna Peyadelyn Plan - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my partner got great results with it.
I am thinking of joining a cruise later to work next year after I graduate from my hotel management diploma.do you have any tips and ideas if you can give me and how can I apply? Are there any open days? Many thanks :-)
thank you so much
Where are you from, Boo?
I am from india and i want to join cruise so can u help me out with some details please,what to do and what to look for and all
You must be Mandy Moore doppelgänger cause you look just like her
Thank you so much for all the information on your videos. im waiting the Disney line cruise response about my application for Merchandiser host/hostess im from Uruguay and if they say ok i have to go to buenos aires for an interwiew with them. So all your videos REALLY help me to GET MORE and MORE exited about working on aboard.
What do you know ABOUT the Merchandiser possition?
Any information about DCL I must know?
hey hey! I don't work for DCL, but I have a friend who does and is in merchandise. he says all you really need is at least 2 years of merchandise experience and youve got to be outgoing and friendly. Disney will take the time to show you the rest- so make sure your personality shines when you land that interview!
I'm not 100% on how it works there but where I am the position can be good. other than the tougher restocking days, when we are in port, the shops must stay closed (by most local laws you need to be 12 nautical miles from shore to sell on a ship)- this means the shops staff really get to enjoy the ports.
as mentioned though, they sometimes stay on to stock or do inventory and the days at sea- when they sell the most- can be long hours. but if you have a great group working with you, it's all good!
omg thank you so much again!!
I just get the email that confirms they want to know me in buenos aires im so excited!!! I used to work on forever 21 that was my last job so I consider myself an outgoing person and also a friendly person because i really enjoy the customer care or services i dont know how say it
omg i cant describe in words how really i want to live this experience, first of all i really want to improve my english, and meet new people from differents places. I wish to have enough time to explore the ports
and once again thank you for your videos they really help me to get a vision about working on abord
Mam is it possible for a fresher's get a job on board if so...wt kinda of degree so the company expect the candidate to have???..
OMG is that Mandy Moore
Missing your videos!!!
hi jessicah
I just can't.
Is the internet very fast or not
Hey I wanna be a nurse on a ship.. Can someone tell me the salary and other tid bits?
Do you guys often have off time when at port?
How as a local Canuck do you go about getting employment with company's that mainly are not near us northerners. :)
Just find a Canadian hiring partner (Just Cruis'n Recruitment)- ships hire worldwide! You'll have interviews via Skype.
Awesome videos and very good info! I am currently doing a minor in Cruise Industry in year 3 of university and I really want to apply for a job on a cruise line after I finish my studies. When you apply, how do you know which company you want to work for? And can you choose for the ship? My school only offers contracts with Holland America Line and NCL, but we can also apply ourselves to other companies. What would you recommend?
Great question! I just wanted to throw an answer in here as I worked on cruise ships for 10 years with 4 different lines. I would recommend researching the other lines that your are interested in - go to their main websites - locate their employment pages (usually located in the footer) and then see if there are any hiring partners for those lines in your country :) I hope this info helps :)
+Gabriela O, from my understanding, ships or cruise lines with an American Registry are bound to the laws of employment in that country. ie pay hours etc. If I am right, Holland America sounds like a good bet. If I am right and this is common knowledge, you will be up against a lot of applicants.
How many hours a day and days per week do you work? Any idea what the salary ranges are for various positions?
6-12 hours a day and it would depend on what position you are looking at. They vary GREATLY.
How much the entry level dishwasher make? Just a ball park a week figure..
j smith I just went to a job fair with norwegian n it’s $8 🤔 an hour
Thats not enough pay to be stuck on a ship everyday all day..
How do you deal with bad weather.
How often do you work every week every two weeks? And do you go on a different boat every time???? 🤔
We work for 6 months, every day on the same ship. Then you get 2 months off. You go back for another 6 months- probably on a different ship.
if ur working every day now do you get to spend all that time visiting the different ports? what cruise line did you work for? ive cruised to Bermuda and the Bahamas and am going to either Alaska or the Mexican Pacific coast next year
So how's it going now blondie.. Regrets?
what cruise line have you worked for?
What's the most preferred age for employees on a cruise ship?

Everyday is like Monday No thanx👎No days off😝😜
What cruise ships will hire Canadians?
What company did you work with
I want to work on a cruise ship. How do i do this?
What do You do in cruise i mean What's your Job .... !
I've been a youth counsellor and an activity host. All entertainment department jobs :)
I'm actually thinking about getting a job on cruise ships. Are there any type of qualifications or anything of the sort you would need?
Michelle Tim Hi mich!! 😊 Are you a Christian as well? GODBless you.. hope to see you in person. 😊
What do you do on the cruise? I'm a cosmologists and I really want to figure out all the opportunities I have! Are there any tips you can tell me about even getting an interview?
Hey there Shay :) Just wanted to throw some answers your way as I worked onboard cruise ships for 10 years and was also in cruise recruitment for another 5 years after :) There are two main concessions that are responsible for hiring most spa staff world wide onboard cruise ships - one company is called Steiner UK and the other is called Canyon Ranch (based out of the US). I hope this info helps :) Feel free to check out my channel for interview tips - Ep. 8 through 11 :)
Thank you! This was very helpful 😊
Shay Stuart No worries!
Do you still work on ships?
I would like to ask is it possible to be a vegan while working on a cruise ship? Thanks
San Lo yeah it is
Hello. I'm Toby from Australia and I was wondering if you (or any of your fellow staff) would know about any recruitment agencies apart from Zest recruitment for the Australian region? Thankyou :)
There are some other agencies that hire Australian's outside of Australia - I actually just had a client of mine hired by Kim Kyle at Just Cruisn' Recruitment in Canada which is the hiring partner that Michelle recommends in her videos :) I hope this info helps :)
Okay thankyou :)
Also focus your camera!
So what if I’m inland and not near a coast will it be difficult for me to work on a ship
No. They fly you wherever you need to go to catch the ship you're assigned to. I don't live on a coast
That's my dream!
So if you’re off for 2/3 months in between contracts how is it possible to rent a house/apartments? Do most people just live with family in between contracts?
Depends where you live and your job! For some in third world countries, the amount they make is enough for them to afford a house, sometimes even 2-3 properties because when the American dollar is changed into their home currency, they are pretty wealthy. Also if you are a high ranking officer, of course you can afford a house. But if you're like me, living in a 1st world expensive city with a job that didn't pay enough for me to have a house- you live with family
@@MichelleTimrox are you still working on a cruise ship
how many hrs a day do you work, and you are out causing for, how many months at a time. some of Disney wonders crew members seem exhausted, long shifts, little sleep and months out.
Depending on your job, you will be away for 3, 4, 6 or 8 months. Upper management is 3-4, everyone else is 6-8 (unless you have some sort of 'seasonal' position).
I worked between 6 and 12 hours/ day depending on the day/need.
Michelle Tim thank u!
K Butler Don't be deceived by Micky Mouse and Donald Duck. Disney is harder than any other line on the high seas on their crew.
These Videos are so awesomely informative :) thank you . please could you do me a favour if you get the chance? :D. I work in the I.T field and would like to see that side of life on a cruise ship. is there anyone working in that field you could ask to do a video ? i would really appreciate it
