beachbum66,

It's great you have that attitude and let me assure you that 99% of all crew felt exactly as you do now in the beginning. But once you've been online a little while and the processes of the job become second nature to you all the things you see discussed here will also become important to you too.

What you perceive as complaining on this board is a desire by all crew for equality and fairness in their workplace. Crewing isn't an easy life, it's quite often hard work with no breaks. Crew can work 9hrs straight without even a meal break for example. Unheard of in an office environment. Forget about coffee breaks...what are they?

It doesn't matter how much enthusiasm anyone brings to a job, eventually things like how you are valued by your employer, your coworkers and just your conditions of working become more important than anything else. You have to go there and face it day in and out. So please don't judge anyone harshly for expressing their concerns over what they feel is important to them.
