Creator's Key Takeaways
I always whenever I get on a cruise ship uh and I and I talked to some of the workers I'm always astounded maybe I'm just lazy uh when I hear these workers yeah we got I signed a six-month contract well how many days you get off none how many hours do you work a day uh 10 to 12 wait wait 10 to 12 hours a day and no days off for six months
they cut back on staff so they were always underst staffed and they cut down a number of times they clean your cabins and some of the bars don't open up as late and and the the pizza place is not open as late and all they made a lot of changes
take care of the workers uh remember they have a a very physical job a very demanding job so have have some understanding have some uh empathy for for them

Cruise lines are often criticized for overworking their crews, with reports of long hours, demanding workloads, and minimal time off. Crew members, particularly those in housekeeping, food service, and engine departments, frequently work 10- to 14-hour shifts, sometimes without a full day off for months. 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
