    MrMarc got a reaction from ScottishRobbie in It's not about masks, it's about the ship and crew   
    I am sure Matt will delete this if it turns into an argument about masks, and that is not what this is about.  I am currently on Adventure and the crew I have spoken with are very frustrated.   If you choose not to wear a mask, all you can do is hurt the crew.  And I am not talking about giving anyone COVID.  If you compliment the crew for not enforcing the rules, that is not a good thing in RCCL's eyes.  If, as they are, other people complain that the crew is not enforcing the mask rules, that hurts them too.  Their job is to enforce it, no matter what you or they think.  Many that I have spoken with, especially officers, are very frustrated.   They can't win.  They see you when you put on the mask, walk ten steps and take it off, thinking you ate so smart and they ate so stupid.  They are not.  They are frustrated and simply trying to do and keep their jobs.  Please, it's not polotical or even science, it's their jobs.

    Sadly, this is true.  There are now people creating anti-ear muff groups.  At least one group has left the word ear out and understand why they are attracting the kind of members they are.

    You are totally ignoring my point.  It doesn't. matter if anyone thinks or even can prove that masks are or or not helpful.  The crew's job is still the same and until it changes, you have to wear masks.  When you step on the ship you have agreeded to wear them.  What I am saying is what a number of crew, an officer, and a customer service manager has told me.  They have to enforce thesevrules and feel frustrated with and disrespected by the number of people who won't follow a simple and clear rule.   The crew isv rom all over the world, and many are laughing at how ridiculous Americans are being.  One said something like you have so many freedoms, but you choose to waste it this way?  Some are worried about their own health, and sad that so many of the passangers don't care at all.

    I am, regardless of how others act.  I  have honestly always approached this subject based on my opnion.  This crew has taught me neither my or anyone else's opnion are the real issue on the ship.  It's not even about other passange4s feeling comfortable,  it's about their jobs.

    Ok, sure I'm still buzzed from the amazing drinks from Maya Chan today.  But I am blown away by the place.  If you want fancy, elegant, pretentious or even picturesque then Maya Chan might not be for you.  If you want private, fun, great food, great drinks, a place that will really make you feel like you are part of the family except the will wait on you hand and foot and you don't have to do the dishes, you need to try this place.  If you can't tell, they blew me away with the vibe and service.  Costa Maya has never been an interesting port to me, now it is one of my favorites.  I have been to much more upscale places with great service.  But from the moment you find their spot at the port (which is admittedly not easy) they make you feel special, important and welcome.  Basically, if your ship ever stops at Costa Maya, go to Maya Chan.

    I have never understood why RCCL doesn't realize with their "team" structure, the shore side teams aren't even playing the same games as the other teams and have no idea what game they are playing, yet ship side works so well.  More than once I have seen the people on board trying to resolve a problem but being blocked from doing so by shore side.  But, I still like RCCL.

    If I get one of those I think I will cut it and try to melt the end so it doesn't frey.  So if you hear about a passenger on a cruise ship suffering burns on their wrist, it'll probably be me.

    Nope.  Not gonna say it.  But it is a place where they find fault in ships that carry passengers.
