Hey Joy! Love this video!! Thanks so much for sharing...love the info and stories!! I worked many years ago on 2 sister ships in the gift shops, and subbed in as a youth director when needed. We did not have many kids onboard throughout the year, so we really enjoyed when they sailed with us. My favorite thing I had to do one of the weeks I was taking care of the kids (and mind you, this was pre-internet tech) was to have to draw the artwork for the kid's newsletter, submit it to be printed, then distribute them to the cabins. Best thing about it is I have NO artistic skills, so I really had to dig deep and improvise!! But all and all, one of the best times (worked for 8 years!!!
Like anywhere, women unfortunately have to be careful and aware of their surroundings as always. You’re surrounded by people from many different countries with different customs and cultures. Some women get fake engagement rings. Don’t give out your cabin number to strangers, and do be alert at the crew bar. It’s the same as visiting bars back home : Watch your drink and be direct with men you’re not interested in. Otherwise, I’ve met some awesome guys that are just friends and looked out for me and my female coworkers and who we knew we could trust!
Hy Well I'm currently doing my matric but l would like to join crew member but l have no experience nor any idea which crew job l can do . Help please😢
@@MbalenhleMourine The minimum age to work on a cruise ship is usually either 18 or 21 years old, depending on the cruise line, cruise ship, and position you are applying for.
I met a ton of LGBTQ+ Crew members while working onboard! Keep in mind people from all over the world with different religious and cultural upbringing are working onboard and you'll be visiting a lot of different countries so as long as you keep that all in mind and are aware of your safety depending on what country you're in, you should be fine. But maybe find and talk to a crew member that's a part of that community to learn more about their experience!
Only if you worked over 5 years and then you could get limited commission cruises which means you get to cruise and pay only the taxes! And then you can bring your partner or family or friends on those too. Or if you work at a management level or higher - then you can have your family etc onboard with you for a certain amount of time. At least those were the rules a few years ago when I was still working ships!

Hi! You just need to figure out what you like to do and are good at, and then see if a job onboard matches those kinds of tasks! Good luck!
@@AJauntWithJoy but do they hire 18 year old ?

WHat's the policy regarding LGBTQ members?

Or are aloud to bring your partner
