Cruise Ship AMA

I realized I've been working on this cruise ship for 3 months now and it's pretty much become normal to me despite being unlike anything I've experienced before.

So I thought it would be interesting to answer any questions anyone had about living and working 7 days a week on a cruise ship around the Carribean.

Have you ever fallen overboard?

No.

If I did however there are sensors on the edge of the ship to detect if anything goes overboard so to inform the bridge.

Though if you fell near the propelers you would be shredded and if you fell in the middle of a cloudy night nobody would be able to see you as its just a black abyss where you can't distinguish the sky or the horizen.

Tell me all about your sound stufffffs

I'm one of three sound engineers on board, I maintain and run the aqua theatre which includes the main Aqua show oceanaria. It's mostly a matinence job so I spend most my time finding issues, diagnosing them and fixing them. I do get to mix bands from time to time though.

We have a crew laundry with like 30-40 washing machines and dryers, it's free as well. I usually put in my washing between shows so I'm not wasting time waiting for it. Lol

Dazel here posting from Arcbell's account: we do laundry by soaking our dirty clothes in the salty sea below us. Salt acts as a natural laundry detergent and keeps our clothes smelling spiffy.

You work on a cruise ship, but what do you actually do? Cruise-things?

I'm a sound engineer so I run one of the 3 theaters on board as well mix bands in other smaller venues around the ship and repair audio equipment.

Arcbell says

How many would you need? And would you be able to do it without security finding out?

I reckon a group of 10 of us would suffice and at like 3am would probably give us the best chance. But I have no inention of sinking the ship after being shown all the previous cruise ship sinkings in the past. lol

Do you mean to imply you had intention of sinking the ship before being shown that?

how are the girls

The majority of the women on board the ship are customer service, resturants and hotel workers so the majority of them are women over the age of 40 working to feed their families back home. In the entertainment divison however we have the acrobatic cast, the dreamworks cast, the ice cast, the diver cast and the mamma mia cast. All of those casts have girls between the ages of 18-30 and are pretty attractive due to the roles they are in.

There are a LOT of attractive guests each week but guests are a no go zone, you can get fired and go to jail for sleeping with a guest. ._.

would u(or ur fam) get paid a lot of money if the ship sank

If the sink ships I get 2 months pay, but on the other hand if I die my family gets $100,000.

Escurai says

Do you wish you had a cutie tootie sailor outfit on

I personally really like all black uniform, but you have to be a pretty high ranking officer to wear all the white suit stripe stuff. lol
