I can say categorically that I have never been on one of those
monstrosities.

As a musician, I know a musician who was on a cruise ship. A blues
wailer, and picker, he worked 8 hours of music every day, conducted
lifeboat drills, made beds, moved laundry, and bussed rooms for
another 8. He was on call at any time. His boss decided if he
needed sleep. No sex, no dope, no drink, no shore leave, so his
money didn't last long once back shoreside, and he'll never do it again.

Why tip him? Or any one pressed to such extremity?

Your Caddy?

Tips Insure Prompt Service.

Chambermaids, like my brother's x, depend on tips to pay the
babysitters.

Why make life any easier for these uppity foreigner house servants?

To give them someone to admire, emulate? So they can afford a
college education? A mechanic's course?

A parts guy computer operator training session or two?

High paying jobs are a necessity, if our world is to prosper.

Can you afford it?

Live long.

Perhaps some of the cruise ship habits are creeping over

into the charter business.

Oh great....

Is there a lot of tipping expected on a cruise ship?
