Leading the Way in Virtual and Shoreside Employment for Former Cruise Ship Crew Members
Hard work on the cruise ship comes with many benefits. Working diligently on a cruise ship comes with a multitude of perks that serve as strong motivational factors, propelling us forward despite any challenges we may face.
We all have different kinds of motivation on the cruise ship. Generally speaking, motivation can be divided into a few different categories. There are four aspects of motivation to consider:
Intrinsic motivators
We all have at least one bad manager in our careers. It's a bit more complicated on the cruise ship because the influence on the employees is drastically more impactful. In my experience, here are some of the most common attributes of a bad manager.
Encourages office toxicity
The allure of working on a cruise ship is undeniable, offering a unique blend of adventure, travel, and rewards. However, like any endeavor, it comes with its own set of advantages and challenges. From experiencing new cultures to dealing with isolation, here's a look at the things I love and the things I don't about the ship life.
Are you able to stay calm when things get tough on the cruise ship? Can you handle the stress and unpredictability that comes with your everyday duties? This week, we're talking about dealing with stress on the ship – what causes it, what sets it off, and how you can manage it to avoid getting overwhelmed in your demanding job at sea. Throughout this week, I'll be giving you some really good advice so you can learn how to handle any situation and stay on top of your game.
While I was working cruise ship, I loved the small ship vibe more than a big ship. That was just my impression, something that I felt. On the small ship, as an employee, I felt more sense of belonging and synergy between the crew members and a more family atmosphere. When I say family atmosphere, yes, you read it correctly. On the seven seas, our fellow colleagues quickly become our extended family; those people usually become close to our hearts forever.
The command aboard the cruise ship MSC Preziosa has made the decision to temporarily close the crew open deck area, sending discontent throughout the onboard community. This move follows a series of safety policy violations by certain individuals, prompting ship authorities to clamp down on access to what is often the only gate to fresh air and sunlight for many crew members – the open deck.
Positive thinking on the cruise ship doesn't mean ignoring life's less pleasant situations, your abusive manager, hectic working schedule, etc. Positive thinking means approaching unpleasantness more positively and productively. You think the best is going to happen, not the worst.
