A friend send me a video titled “Cruise ships will never replace us with robots,” and it really caught my attention. It reminded me of the days when four to six of us would sit together rolling silverware for the Lido buffet, a task most of us hated.



But the video showed something interesting: a silverware-rolling robot, apparently already being used on MSC Cruises ships based on the crew nametags.

And honestly, the machine looks pretty impressive. It seems they’ve found a way to replace several crew members for this repetitive task.



So, will robots replace cruise ship crew?

Personally, I don’t think so at least not anytime soon. The jobs crew members do go far beyond what machines can handle, Crew members do many tasks and this is just one of many.


What do you think?

    Thread 'Brilliant Lady Crew Member Fired Over Unfair Job Assignment'

    Hello amigos, I have bad news from Brilliant Lady, as usual, they fired someone today, Filipino crew member from the engine department, for an unfair reason, to which I will proceed to explain to you... Turns out, that he got a job as a pool technician, which he was unprepared to carry the duty, but still they bound him to do it, knowing that he was unfit for that kind of job, so he made a mistake with the charts very often, and today they fired him, without any mercy. I feel emphaty...

    Thread 'Infidelity'

    OPEN LETTER TO ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISE Hello, I am the wife of one of your employees under one of your ships—I will no longer mention his position or which ship he is currently onboard. I am writing this letter on this page, CREW MATTER, not only because of the deceit I am experiencing from my husband, but also for other wives who are going through the same betrayal from our spouses. I hope this reaches Mr. Michael Bayley. We thought your company does not tolerate infidelity, yet why do you...
