Here are some of the most annoying things passengers on a cruise ship can do from a waiter’s point of view.

1.    Ordering Multiply main courses. Oh man I know its free of charge but you don’t need to look like pig and have three plates in front of you.

Its 15th of  the month and its Lasagna time as crew like to call the pay day. There is a big line in front of the crew payroll office, everybody is waiting for their well earned money. When is my turn I need to count the cash money and sign the pay slip. Salary is paid in cash on cruise ship so you take your money and you hide it somewhere in your cabin or place it in a safe box. There is Wire transfer so you can send your money back home with small fees around $10 depending of the amount.

So here's how I FINALLY settled into life on land without having to join the rat race:

I actually now have a global business (which I'll share with you how I did that in just a moment)...

Smokers have thought time on cruise ship. First of all there are two places where you can smoke, that is Crew Bar and Crew Open Deck. When you are on duty you usually have 30 minutes break. Now, you need to decide should I go to eat or should I take coffee and enjoy 2-3 cigarettes. If you take the first option then you need to eat fast and run in Crew Bar, so you can enjoy at least one or half a cigarette. Sometimes there is a big line in Crew Mess and you take the second option.
