the captain is the boss the captain's word is law on the ship what the captain says goes

it's called a muster and it's very important and required by law that you go to your muster station

on land on buildings they have floors on a ship they're decks so you don't say meet me on you know the fifth floor you say meet me on deck five

if you're on the ship facing forward your left side that's the port side you know it's not something a simple as saying hey uh the driver side
