Many of us may relish the idea of getting to travel the world, not pay for housing or food, while working. But there is a side to cruise ships that the passengers are not privy to. So remember that a cruise ship is basically a giant floating hotel, and while someone is lounging by the pool or ordering room service, there is a crew member catering to their every need. Before you decide to fill in an application and set off for the big blue, remember that the service and hospitality industry is always hard work, and take a look at some of the insider behind the scenes information that former cruise employees shared with us themselves.

Big Brother Surveillance

A former waiter on a major cruise line, Gavin, said that on the cruise ships Big Brother is no joke, meaning that there are cameras everywhere.
