Ocean Boy Posted February 27, 2015 #151 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I had a similar question: If I could not trust RCI to distribute money as they said they would, can I trust them with my life as they navigate a giant ship around the ocean? Of course you can. Do you really think that they would put their multimillion dollar ship in any sort of jeopardy?:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigque Posted February 27, 2015 #152 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Ummm, like those in the military maybe?:rolleyes: Agreed that that makes no sense. People are delusional about all the supposed behind the scenes people auto gratuities benefit: Very interesting video! WOW! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boytjie Posted February 27, 2015 #153 Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) I'll be stopping at the petrol station later today.:) But will you tip at the petrol station? Best not to smoke, though. No shirt, no shoes, no service. Edited February 27, 2015 by Boytjie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cauzneffct Posted February 27, 2015 #154 Share Posted February 27, 2015 The OP has mentioned a few times not trusting that RCI will disseminate the auto gratuity correctly/as stated. If you really think this why are you having anything to do with RCI at all? If I felt a company lied to me (which is what you're saying) I would never give them my business! I was wondering about this as well, and whether it extends to all OP's business transactions or just cruises. I would drive myself nuts if I presumed that every restaurant or bar or coffee shop or whatever was stiffing their staff out of wages or tips.

Cauzneffct Posted February 27, 2015 #155 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I'll take the posters at their word that when they remove auto-grats, they pay the same or more directly to the staff. However, I wonder if that's a majority practice. Much like there are people on the "can I bring water/soda/booze" threads who state that they do so because RCI doesn't carry their brand or so they can avoid the herculean task of having to go to the bar before getting dressed for dinner, I think a whole lot more do it to save money.
