Virgin Voyages is targeting a new type of traveler: remote workers...It's essentially four week-long cruises packaged together to appeal to remote workers who want to spend a month at sea in southern Europe.

It’s a creative idea.
“ Travelers can also swap out travel companions for different legs of the cruise”
The old “girl in every port!” ploy.
Oh, one of THOSE kinds of cruises. Sex cruises.
“Sex cruises.” while PRETENDING to work! doesn’t get any better than that!
Review of Virgin cruises on YouTube doesn’t look inviting. A bunch of drunk young adults and ship design that looks like a bad makl renovation.
Does the ship have cameras all over the decks and you Zoom into the cruise from home?
well, that’s one way to get people back in the office lol
Likely pretty smelly on that ship.
Pedos on a boat. How nice.
Wider chairs and all-you-can-eat buffets?
Suitable for shooting adult videos with nautical rock star themes. The ultimate in working vacations. Screen tests 24/7. No experience necessary. Free training!
I stood my share of underway watches. I have my Cutterman’s pin. I knew a few sailors that loved living out of a berthing bunk, stood watch and hit the rack with a book. This is for those folks. One buddy had 15 years in, lived in the barracks and had 11 monthly military pay checks in his foot locker.
Shift Colors ~ Underway as before, #1 and #2 MDE in the loop. #1 and #2 SSDG in parallel. Emergency generator in stand-by. #2 Steering pump. #1 boiler. #2 FW pump. FW suction from A-401-T.
No doubt military sea time ruint me for cruising.
My company told us that we were on the hook to report a change in tax status if we remotely worked in ANOTHER state. I can’t imagine how we would report it if we were in international waters.
Remote worker: Hey, I’m going on a cruise!
CEO: Aw, f*** it! He’s gone!
Remote worker: *Returns from cruise; goes to stand in unemployment line.*
Richard Branson is Epstein’s British version.
