Creator's Key Takeaways

do not leave home expecting that oh I have this king size or queen size bed and when I come on the cruise ship that's the same thing you're going to expect to be sleeping on guys

sometimes the food might not be the very very best and sometimes the food are awesome there guys Burger is always awesome their barbecue is always awesome

before you come on any Cruise Line they send you a contract they let you know what you are being paid before you come under contract

you are going to get the chance to go out some Cruise Line once you're a first contract first contract you don't get to come out in the USA

Creator's Tips & Advice

Do not expect a queen-size bed; crew cabins have bunks.
Be open to trying new foods, but know you won't get familiar Jamaican dishes.
Accept your contract salary before joining; don't compare with others.
Respect all nationalities and avoid creating problems over race or gender.
On your first contract, you may not get to disembark in US ports.
If you get seasick, free medical care is provided on board.
