A Redditor, a cruise ship employee in guest services, shared insider secrets during an AMA about the challenges faced while working on ships. They detailed various customer antics that range from demanding management for minor issues to dealing with intoxicated guests. For instance, one guest reacted poorly when refused a wine bottle for their room, while another incident involved a completely inebriated patron removing their underwear in public. The worker highlighted the coping mechanisms necessary for the job amidst rising crime rates aboard cruise ships.
When it came to biggest pet peeves on the high seas, the professional voyager said he was tired of passengers "demanding to see my supervisor/manager." The Redditor declared, "If seeing the manager is warranted, I promise you won't have to say it."
Of course, this was just the tip of the iceberg when it came to problem cruise customers, of which there have been an abundance of late. The industry insider recounted one time a "lady was p-s drunk and yelled at me because the restaurant wouldn't let her take a wine bottle to her room."
Perhaps the "craziest guest incident" entailed a "p-s drunk" passenger who "took off his underwear in the atrium full of people" and had to be "removed by security." The poster said that no "sane person" would work in guest services for an extended period.
