The ones who moan and have opinions are politely directed to the reception desk, the ones which flutter there eyelids and subtly lower the neckline of their dresses are equally politley directed to my cabin.
I started off on passanger ships with P&O Cruises, thoroughly hated every minute of it and left swearing that I would never set foot on a cruise ship again, but I have to say i am actually thoroughly enjoying it, in engineering terms the challenges are no different to keeping a cargo ship running, except that I am presently on a 30 year old heap of scrap whose next owners will probably be Gillette, but the big difference is the size of the crew, I have come from a ship where i had a department of 9 to one where I have a department of around 65.
