Creator's Key Takeaways

On a cruise ship, the buffet line is a social contract. Shoulders tense. People stare. Someone mutters under their breath.

Cruise ship doors are heavy and self-closing. If you let them fly shut, the sound punches straight through thin cabin walls.

When you disrespect them, you reveal your character instantly. You get labeled, that entitled passenger.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Don't save lounge chairs for hours if you aren't using them
✓Wait patiently in buffet lines and don't cut in front of others
✓Let people exit elevators before you try to enter
✓Don't slam cabin doors late at night
✓Wash your hands at the buffet sinks
✓Supervise your children in public areas
