Creator's Key Takeaways

my first contract for the first month i was crying every single day almost

i'm not earning any money i'm gonna go insane i hate living on a cruise ship

give it at least two and a half to three months because that's usually the time that you start to enjoy it more

if you do decide that this life isn't for you because it isn't for some people and you've given it a good go and you want to quit then first thing is you need to let your manager know

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Give your cruise contract at least two and a half to three months before deciding to quit

✓Write down why you want to quit to determine if reasons are temporary or permanent

✓If you decide to quit, inform your manager and be prepared to leave quickly

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Crying and emotional distress in first month — It's completely normal; give it time as adjustment is needed

Not earning money initially — Be patient; skills develop over time, and you can make back training costs

Homesickness or seasickness — If permanent, consider quitting after giving it a good go
