CrznTxn Posted August 25, 2020 Report Share Posted August 25, 2020 Sit 6 seats apart in the center of the theater "reserving" them for friends and family who never show up or do AFTER the show has started and have to chat and catch up during the show. Play through your putt-putt game while your ball is still on the green, no "excuse me" or anything. And then complain about it within earshot.

That happened to me on the Disney Wonder where some people tried to push through my 8 YO daughter. I had to get grouchy and say we were part of a group as I was getting on to have them let her on as well. I would never dream of shoving a kid out of the way to get on. Especially as she was walking right behind me. Ugh. I had a stroller and needed to ride it. I don't ever get perfectly healthy people trying to shove ahead of strollers and scooters at all costs. Hello? You just had a huge meal in the dining room and do not look like you have any mobility issues. A few stairs would probably do you some good to work it off and think about properly queuing. Our next cruise will not really need strollers, so taking the stairs will make things much easier..... Rant over. Maybe.....

sk8erguy1978 Posted August 25, 2020 Report Share Posted August 25, 2020 Letting your child put a big pile of bacon on his plate in the Windjammer, not leaving any of the rest of us. I mean, there is always more coming, just wow, he put like an entire package worth and he was a little kid (8?). At that age my parents would have killed me if I took more than 3 slices (only because it's vacation could I eat that many LOL).

ehw51 Posted August 25, 2020 Report Share Posted August 25, 2020 We had dinner in the Solarium last Dec, a couple came in and ordered 4 entrees, one was a special order. Nice looking young couple. The meals came, and they complained about each of them. Then they went to get desert, didn´t like any of them either. We talked to the waiter when they left, one bite out of each of the dinners and the deserts just left the rest.

The maitre'd came around to each table on the first night asking how everything was. The couple next to us said it wasn't good. The maitre'd asked what was wrong and how can they make things better, etc. They just shrugged and said it wasn't good food. My mother chimed in and said, "Well I thought everything was absolutely delicious!" That couple never returned to the dining room for the rest of the cruise, which was nice because we didn't want to be around negativity.

Same. I was very "not wearing a mask on-board" and still am to a point, but have realized, even for my next cruise (not until September 2021) it's a big possibility. It's just a way of life now, pull into parking spot, turn off car, grab phone from holder, grab mask from center console, open door, exit, put mask, walk to store.

His point is valid when he says that he does not want to go on a vacation with a mask on. It would suck the fun out of my vacation as well. He never said he would be going on on without it, just that he would forgo.

Jolly Ogre Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Ok for those wondering...I am in healthcare... i will not board if i have to wear a mask. I do and will wear a mask every day until it is plausibly safe to not to do so. Even before this pandemic there were times when I donned a mask when necessary for the safety of myself and or my patients. There are other nasty bugs out there that will get you in worse ways than Covid-19. Be safe but be aware.
