loveandcruises Posted January 21, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I'll start ... just recently on the Navigator, during dinner service, someone had a laptop on the table where his place setting should be. His kids kept coming around to see what was on his screen. I mean ... really!!?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lmm79 Posted January 21, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Also when I was standing to check my towels in someone came and grabbed them out of my hands saying he needed them. I had to chase him down and take them back out of fear of being charged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icantgolf Posted January 21, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 21, 2018 How do you know it was not important? It would be naive and ignorant to automatically assume it was frivolous activity. My wife is an international tax attorney. She deals with clients who also live overseas. Bedtime for you, mid work day for them. Business never sleeps. Neither does international commerce. For some, a vacation does not mean a cutoff from work. Since we don’t know what this person was actually doing with said laptop. Presenting that as rude, is unfounded and in itself rude.

parrotfeathers Posted January 21, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Ordering room service with coffee and half and half on the side and getting those little "non-refrigerated' packs. I hope that isn't a cut back. Actually I don't guess I can remember anything strange or rude. I just let things go and have my fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoyMouse Posted January 21, 2018 #9 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Rudest—On a 5 day Vision cruise in October 2014, we sat it front of a young lady in the theater who let’s just say was feeling no pain (loudly). The next evening we thought we were smart and moved to the other side of the theater only to sit in front of a young man in similar condition. No more 5 day Caribbean cruises for me! Strangest—there was a older gentleman on Vision’s British Isle Cruise last May who carried around a skeleton doll/skull dressed in a tuxedo on formal nights (no MDR dress code violations for them). I got the impression from the other passengers that the doll was a regular. Also strange on Brilliance this December at one of the evening Centrum gatherings, two security officers had a guest’s photograph and were scanning the crowd for him.

davekathy Posted January 21, 2018 #11 Share Posted January 21, 2018 (edited) Gross as well as rude. A guy spitting on the walking track as he was doing laps. I reported him to a pool attendant. He was also watched by the pool attendant who also saw the guy spit.The pool attendant reported the guy to his boss. The guy was stopped and talked to and then escorted off the track by the pool attendants boss and a security officer.

boxermom711 Posted January 21, 2018 #16 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I’ve got 2: 1st was 2016 on Navigator - a woman who had been upgraded to a family suite for free (we know that because she was screaming it at the top of her lungs) was throwing a huge fit at dinner on the first night because everything had been messed up because she got her free upgrade. Think most people could deal with a few changes & getting them fixed for that kind of upgrade 2nd was on Liberty last April- there was a table of women that the last night showed up nearly an hour late for dinner & were demanding appetizers & dinner once they got they. Most tables were finishing their entrees by the time they got there. They were so rude to their server Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenofKrakatoa Posted January 21, 2018 #17 Share Posted January 21, 2018 God, where do I begin... There have been a lot of times where I've stood in line at Guest Services and listened to some REALLY entitled people go off on the reps, screaming obscenities and threatening to have the reps fired, or say that "I pay your salary", which might be true but that isn't an appropriate thing to say, I don't care how mad you are.

650cs Posted January 21, 2018 #18 Share Posted January 21, 2018 An intoxicated woman in the casino kept taking her top off, she ended up in the ships brig! On that same cruise, a young woman, trying to get back on the ship in Cozumel, was incensed that she couldn't place her yard long drink down on the conveyor belt or go through security with it. She then yelled that she would just take everything off, which she proceeded to do.We never went on another 5 day cruise, its a different demographic.

Desert Cruizers Posted January 21, 2018 #19 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Probably the rudest thing we encountered was when our elevator stopped and full of people and 3 ladies began rushing in befor anyone had a chance to get off. of course many of us see this on most of our cruises.

Chiliburn Posted January 21, 2018 #22 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I’ll have to apologise to my North American friends . I thought the elevator thing and stopping in the middle of a walk way was unique to North America. It’s world wide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icantgolf Posted January 21, 2018 #23 Share Posted January 21, 2018 It’s rude because it’s happening in the dining room. Sent from my iPhone using Forums No, not convinced... it seems to only bother selective people. Who are focused so much so on others, rather than the people they are with. Says lots about ones self. Playing devils advocate once again, maybe they feel like my wife does. Loosing so much time due to work, every minute in physical presence of loved ones, even working at the table is still time with family. That’s not being rude. Now, if he/she was playing candycrush, or watching a show. That would be rude. So lets give that person the benefit of doubt. Speculation is not burden of proof.

Just excuse yourself and deal with it on your own Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Forums mobile app John&lala, never say sorry, as that word is an admission of self guilt. And can be used as an acknowledgement of wrongdoing. Just stick to your guns and say how you feel. Had you not began with sorry... your post would have been a valid opinion from your POV. You would definitely not want to be at my table. A bunch of loudmouth NJ,NY litigators who never stop working. In fact, we have a large group sailing next Nov. on the Anthem. One of my friends actually booked two of his staff in the cabin next to their suite. So work can be conducted. Thats a lifestyle. Not many can live with. But like everyone else, we all see things with different color filters. Be well, i enjoy your posts very much. You seem to be well traveled, and genuine.
