Did anyone else dream of becoming a digital nomad just to escape open-plan offices, only to realize that now you have to take Zoom calls from even more awkward places-like, say, the buffet on a Norwegian Cruise Line ship?
Serious question: Has anyone here tried the ‘cruise consultant’ hustle-working remote gigs while drifting on ocean waves, arguing with customer service about Wi-Fi speeds that would make a carrier pigeon blush? Is it actually possible to get real work done onboard these floating hotels, or is this just the influencer version of “work from anywhere,” meaning, take three selfies, upload none, then disappear at the blackjack table for a week?
Would love to hear actual experiences or creative horror stories about navigating endless brunches, questionable internet connections, and having to explain to coworkers why there are seagulls shrieking on your calls. Is life as a cruise ship consultant the peak of nomad chic, or just seasickness with a side of Outlook outages?
