Cruise ship worker explains one of the easiest way people get fired from their jobs

There are specific rules you have to follow if you work on a cruise ship, with your job quickly gone if you break particular ones.

Tom Earnshaw

A cruise ship worker has explained the one way on board staff can quickly find themselves without a job with a very abrupt trip back to dry land on the cards.

Working at sea isn't for everyone. It is a unique lifestyle that some love and others would hate. In fact, some love it so much that they choose to live at sea as a passenger, even if they're not making any money working for the vessel.

It can be a really fruitful venture though, with some workers revealing the small fortune they make by working at sea.

If you decide that working on a cruise ship is something you're interested in, one person who already does this has issued some top advice when it comes to making sure you don't get fired.

And that's because it's pretty easy to find yourself in a situation where your job is at risk without even maybe realising so.

Over on an Ask Me Anything (AMA) Reddit thread , the cruise ship worker answered questions about, well, anything that people were interested in.

Launching the AMA, they said: "I have travelled to over 30 countries and five continents, including Antarctica, while having my dream job: singing and performing! I am a part of the production cast (of 12) as well as the vocal captain for the other five singers.

"I do other small duties on the ship for the entertainment department but overall I work on average less than three hours a day and get paid way more than I would on land to sing. It’s a unique lifestyle that combines traveling, performing, customer service, getting along with 50-plus other nationalities on board and more. Ask me anything!"

One Redditor said: "Can you not drink at all during the whole trip?"

Explaining the reality of the situation to those interested, the cruise ship singer said you can and are in fact incentivised to do so with punters if the right situation comes about. But there is a risk.

They said: "So because part of the production cast’s job is to socialise, we actually get a stipend of $150 each month to get drinks in guest areas in case the want to spend time with us in a bar area.

"So it’s a little bit a part of our job. But despite that, we can be fired if we are breathalysed and over .05 while off duty or .04 while on duty.

"Basically there’s a culture of 'we know everyone goes over that limit but unless you’re clearly drunk while on duty, or doing something rowdy, we won’t test you'."

But there is one situation that 'gets people' more than any other. The random breathalyser tests on the morning after a big one.

"What gets people is the random alcohol tests every month at 10am where people are still drunk from the night before. Drinking is a huge part of ship life because of how cheap alcohol is in crew bar. It’s like $1.50 per drink," they said.

Another person commented explaining how her brother was a piano player on a cruise ship and got 'kicked off for getting super drunk'.

"The same exact scenario just happened at the beginning of my contract and we were without a pianist for two months," the cruise ship worker said.

"It sucked. Unfortunately alcohol is very cheap on ships but even a little bit can send you home if you’re breathalyzed."

Know your limits, then. And maybe only really go all-out when you know you're not on shift the following morning, which goes for anyone working in any job, really, especially if it is customer facing.

If you fancy a career on a cruise ship, you might want to follow the packing advice of one man who has done it for a long time when it comes to taking the top essentials.

The cruise ships come from Viking Cruises, a company that has offered Great Lakes cruises for three seasons now.

The cruise line has stopped in cities across states and countries such as Chicago, Milwaukee, Mackinac Island, Detroit, and Toronto.

Alpena has been one of Viking’s destinations since 2022, and, each year, the number of stops in Alpena has increased because of positive feedback.

Jeff Konczak is the owner of many properties in Alpena, such as Biggby Coffee locations, the Great Lakes Maritime Heritage Center building, Sanctuary Cinema, and more.

He said summer is time for tourism and business in Alpena, and the cruise line helps with that.

“No matter where you are from, you’re coming to northern Michigan to enjoy the weather and the Great Lakes,” Konczak said.

Konczak owns Alpena Shipwreck Tours and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration buildings and said passengers from Viking frequently visit the area. He said the company has a partnership with NOAA, which he called a “pretty big collaboration.”

“It’s a big deal to Alpena,” he said. “Alpena has about 10,000 people, but NOAA receives 100,000 people a year, and that doesn’t include Viking (customers). It’s probably the premier destination location in Northeast Michigan, without question.”

Konczak said Alpena Shipwreck Tours will offer two new tours on July 1 — kayak tours and on-the-water lighthouse tours. With cruise line stops in Alpena expected to increase next year, he said he and his wife plan to open an ice cream shop and a gourmet hot dog shop in the near future.

“We’re making investments specifically on that dock,” he said. “Viking is certainly appreciated … but we hope for many more (tourists).”

Viking plans to continue offering its Great Lakes trips to customers. In a news release, the company announced two new itineraries for 2026: the Great Lakes Treasures and the Niagara and Great Lakes Treasures packages. The latter includes Alpena as a stop once again.

“The Great Lakes region is a phenomenal place that is close to home for many of our guests, but one that few have yet to fully discover,” Viking CEO and Chairman Torstein Hagen said in a statement.

“We look forward to introducing more curious travelers to the Great Lakes this season and in future years,” the statement added.

'I ditched my 9 to 5 as a plumber to work on a cruise ship - I don't pay bills and earn £3k a month travelling the world'

A man ditched his 'dull' 9 to 5 to work as musician on a cruise ship, and is reaping the benefits. Jack Nolan, 33, says he found his previous job as a plumber in the UK 'boring' and 'unfulfilling' and wanted to embark on a new career.

Since joining the cruise ship in 2016, he has visited 40 countries such as Australia, Iceland, and Canada and earns £40k a year, which is around £3,315 a month. Although he performs most evenings as a singer and guitarist, he enjoys entire days off where he can explore each location at his leisure.

Another perk of ship life is having no rent or bills to pay, with all meals provided too. Among Jack's 'bucket list' achievements are visits to the Acropolis in Greece, Rome's Colosseum, the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, Hobbiton in New Zealand, and Iceland's Blue Lagoon.

The singer from Exeter, Devon, said: “Not many jobs will let you see so many countries and experience so much culture. We also don’t pay for rent or food which is great - as they are two of life's biggest expenses.

“I had finished university and I had worked in plumbing shops before ships. Plumbing doesn’t feed my soul the same way that music does and it doesn’t fulfil me. I wanted to travel the world and I hadn’t travelled by that time.”

His dad, Trevor, 67, recommended he become qualified in a trade, and so after qualifying he installed bathrooms for three years and worked in a plumbing shop.

He said: “I was living for the weekend. I often worked Saturdays too. I was burned out and ultimately knew I didn’t want to do that job for the rest of my life."

In 2016, Jack got a call from a friend who he had previously worked with at a wedding. He was a drummer and asked Jack if he knew any guitarists for a band he was putting together.

Jack said: "I told him I'd love to do it, and from there we recorded a promo video in sent it to agents, and we landed our first gig on a ferry in 2016.

"We then found another agent who found us a real cruise contract. After that, we were offered more jobs on different ships and I was so excited. The ships went to places like the Caribbean and I had never been."

Jack says some cruise-workers can also run their own “side-hustles” - like hairdressing and barbers. He makes an extra £20 an hour running his own art auctions on board the ship, as well as playing in the band.

Often, he’ll spend an afternoon in one country before heading to another by noon the next day. “I loved the ancient Acropolis in Greece and the Colosseum in Rome,” he added.

“Visiting Vancouver, Jamaica, and bungee jumping off the Auckland bridge, were some other highlights. Today we are in Palma, Mallorca - tomorrow we could be in France. Each day we wake up in another country.”

Jack says relationships between colleagues aren’t prohibited - and are actually “very common”. But they can cause a lot of crew tension - and he says working there is sometimes like living in uni halls.

He said: “Even though we are older than uni students, it gives that vibe because we have these small rooms and we are next door to each other. We live with people we don't even know in such close quarters. You need to let off steam and decompress at times.”

As well as relationships, Jack’s seen his fair share of chaos at sea. He says ships have rules which mean they help anyone stranded at sea who needs assistance.

He’s seen “loads” of ships stranded at sea - and he said crew often bring people in trouble on-deck to help them. “There was a boat that was let onto our ship,” he added. “There was a rumour they were pirates - rumours can spread quite easily on the ship.

Jack hopes to move back to land in the future as he misses family and friends, but calls his life at sea ‘addictive’ and continues to love every moment.

“I recommend anyone who wants to enjoy the trip to choose a position that lets you travel as much as you can,” he added. “Some jobs mean you often never get to see the destinations, so choosing something in entertainment, shops or the casino allows you to see it all.”
