merlin5353 Posted July 26, 2016 #4276 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Here is a copy of Arno's great spreadsheet, that he posted earlier this month. Thank you. It's certainly best to keep this thread focused on the cruise staff and officers. A lot of effort (thanks Arno) has gone into this. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waverunner43 Posted July 31, 2016 #4286 Share Posted July 31, 2016 The restaurant manager I'm looking for would oversee all restaurants on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladesign Posted July 31, 2016 #4287 Share Posted July 31, 2016 The restaurant manager I'm looking for would oversee all restaurants on the ship. Well that would be the Restaurant's Manager ( if there is such a position) or does one refer to the F & B Manager ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TourDeCruise Posted July 31, 2016 #4288 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Well that would be the Restaurant's Manager ( if there is such a position) or does one refer to the F & B Manager ? There is such a position. The Restaurant Manager reports to the F&B Manager and, as mentioned, overseas all the restaurants on the ship including the MDR, Oceanview Cafe, Aqua Spa Cafe, Blu, Luminae, specialty restaurants, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C 2 C Posted August 8, 2016 Author #4293 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Arno, thanks for keeping this up. Is there no more Staff Captain? Maybe I missed it. There is still a Staff Captain but their names have not been included in the chart for a long time. Now that Officers (Captain's) tables are getting rare, contacts with the Engineer and the Staff Captain and even the Master himself will become another lost tradition. The invites to the specialty restaurant do not include as many people as before. With fewer connections, information is more difficult to get. :( BSinPNS: Thanks for the update and info on the new Cruise Director. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burrma Posted August 8, 2016 #4295 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Super nice of Kate to "like" it. Hope she transfers after this... would like to cruise with her as master. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted August 8, 2016 #4296 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Hope this is true. A CD on Celebrity told me she had been ushered out; wanted younger CD's. While I cannot speak for Celebrity wanting younger CD's.... Sue has absolutely not been (using your terms) "ushered out". Sue is currently CD onboard Reflection. Hope this helps !

harz99 Posted August 8, 2016 #4297 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Thanks Host Andy. I'd like to think Sue would still be on RF in October and do the TA before her normal Christmas break. Somehow I don't think I'll be that lucky though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burrma Posted August 8, 2016 #4298 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Fabulous to hear Sue is still with Celebrity; that wrongful fact came from a new CD on Celebrity! Shame on him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Texed Posted August 8, 2016 #4299 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I think it is a shame that folks on here speaking "anonymously" can be pretty rude. I was talking to a CD on one of our last cruises. He said he used to read Cruise Critic. But, he said he quit when he read some of the things that was said about him. He said he did not mind criticism, but some folks were just too rude, and it had hurt his feelings when they said things that were untrue. Maybe we should watch what we say. You never know who is reading it, and you can never "unsay" something. Just my 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted August 8, 2016 #4300 Share Posted August 8, 2016 (edited) Hi Texed, Thank you for posting your excellent points. FWIW, I spent nearly an hour today, going over the last few pages of this thread, and removing mean-spirited and off-topic posts. That's another hour of my life, that I won't get back LOL. While I feel this thread offers tremendous value to our community, it's generally the same few members, who post on an anonymous screen name, with very rude comments. Frankly, I think that's extremely unfair to anyone mentioned by name, and I'm not about to tolerate it. I wonder how the instigators would like it, if someone did that to them, on Social Media ? I'm sure they wouldn't like it one bit. Seriously... Is it that tough to be kind to others - especially the wonderful Celebrity Officers & Crew, who spend months at a time away from their loved ones - with a passion for providing their guests a wonderful cruise experience. I sincerely hope you will follow my lead, and appreciate everything they do for us. At any rate, when noticing any off-topic or rude comments.... the best course of action, is to use the Alert Triangle . This will send an immediate alert to Host Walt & Myself to review the reported post(s), and take appropriate action. Let's kindly return to discussion of Who's Onboard. Special thanks to Arno for his outstanding efforts, and thanks to our community members for your support and understanding.
