There's a romance to the life of a cruise ship crewmember -- that human engine that keeps cabins spotless, buffets buzzing and bars swimming. Experience the world on a perpetual voyage. Meet fascinating travelers. It's a part of ship life that mere vacationers can never experience.

But what's it really like behind the dining room waiter's unflinching smiles, the cabin steward's bubbly "Hello Mr. Dan!"?

Blowing through the door marked "crew only," American author Brian David Bruns takes readers on an exclusive below-decks tour in his book, Cruise Confidential: A Hit Below the Waterline. A lone American in a multi-national workforce, Bruns spent over a year in Carnival Cruise Lines restaurants, gutting his way through 80-hour work weeks on four-hours-sleep nights on a three-figure monthly salary.

Through a decidedly Western lens -- college educated, former business owner -- Bruns offers observations on the debauched crew parties, the need for stalwart defense of cutlery and coffee cups, the gratitude shown by passengers (tips and flashers in equal measure), and an ever-changing cast of characters including chain-smoking, video game-playing Asians; zombie cooks who never see the light of day; and hardnosed capos in the "Romanian Mafia." Bruns maintains that he was the only American in the history of Carnival Corp. to make it through a full contract without quitting -- and that there's a very clear reason for the absence of U.S. cruise ship crew. It's a damn hard job, one that breaks down both body and mind.

So, how'd he survive -- and why does he miss the job so much? Cruise Critic caught up with Brian to talk about what it's really like grinding it out in the big-ship buffets and dining rooms, and how the crew live in the bowels of those massive floating resorts.

Da li mogu da natocim svoju rakiju u plasticnoj boci ili mora da bude neka kupovna rakija zapakovana hermeticki?

ovo i mene zanima.

I ako je kupovna jel mora na aerodromu ili moze vani?

Moja supruga je juce otputovala za Cozumel na photo college ja idem 12 maja i nama je vise ljudi koji su bili na Carnivalu reklo da nisu imali problema sa spajanjem, bili u braku ili ne nisu imali problema, isto nam je rekla i Julia koja drzi photo college. Videcemo, nadamo se da nas nisu slagali, prvo da oboje zavrsimo college i dobijemo brodove pa cemo posle da se upustimo u borbu za to spajanje.

Neko sa skorasnjim iskustvom dobijanje vize?

Po forumu citam da je jako tesko dobiti US vizu za brod pa me interesuje, da li je neko u 2016 vadio vizu i da li je bilo problema sto se tice LoE (po forumu se pise da traze orginal) itd?

BiH pasos posjedujem tako da svaka informacija je dobrodosla.

Tesko?

Bilo mi je teze da dobijem markansku vizu kao turista nego C1/D  

Ovo je u Beogradu doduse ali kontam da nije nista komplikovanije u Sarajevu

Poneses ono sto ti je covek iznad  rekao, dodjes u ambasadu u zakazano vreme, prozovu te, udjes ostavi mobilni na portinici, dobijes broj, cekas da te prozovu, prvi salter predas LOE i pasos, pitaju te sto ides u USA, drugi salter dajes otiske, treci salter fina i mogu reci zgodna americka teta te pita jel ti prvi ugovor, jel imas iskustva u tom poslu i to je to, odmah ti kaze da si dobio vizu.

Ceo proces u ambasadi je meni trajao mozda sat vremena, sutradan podigao pasos sa vizom u DHL

LOE sam ja odstampao sa mejla i nije bilo problema

Da, najboje rascisti sa sobom sta hoces i mozes. Vidi koji bi posao mogao da radis na kopnu a onda shvati da je taj isti posao nekoliko puta tezi na brodu, pa ako mislis da mozes da izdrzis kreni da radis na sebi.

A nemacki i engleski mozes da usavrsis i sam dok ne krenes u neku skolu, rosetta stone i gledanje filmova bez prevoda pomazu dosta, s tim sto treba dati prednost engleskom.

Ja sam nasao stari karton sa vakcinama ali su mi rekli da se ne vazi, pa sam otisao u batut, vakcinisao se i dobio zutu knjizicu.

A Carnival ima svoje fotografe ili je neka koncesija u pitanju?
I da li je ovo isti slucaj kao sa casinologistic gde na obuku mogu da idu kandidati bez iskustva pa se posle obuke salju na brod, ili za ovo prvo moras da prodjes intervju, i da imas prethodno iskustvo pa tek onda na obuku?

Carnival ima svoje fotografe a ja sam prosao dva kruga intervjua gde su me ispitivali o iskustvu, tehnicka pitanja i gledali portfolio i ispitivali o fotkama iz njega
