Kurbanfan Posted May 12, 2010 #401 Share Posted May 12, 2010 There is nothing wrong with driving people to port. I would be honored. As long as we stayed within the perscribed speed limit and obeyed all safety laws. Can you drive a fork lift:confused::p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lrtjs5 Posted May 12, 2010 #402 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Actually, compared to land based resorts and even some local bars, $5 for a beer is dirt cheap. Any way that you try to justify smuggling alcohol onboard, it still hurts the cruise line's bottom line. Maybe 50 passengers do it on this sailing, maybe 100 on another, and so forth. But when you add up all the lost revenue, you're talking about millions of dollars. Yes. Carnival still makes money even with the smugglers. But if their projected revenue doesn't match actual revenue, trust me, they will pass it on to the guests in the form of higher cruiser rates, or more expensive onboard items... I'll know who to thank next time I pay more for my cruise... Agree with you 100%-as a teacher I guess I am big on rules but you just don't disobey a rule just because you disagree with it. If drinking is that important there just may be a problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L2J Posted May 12, 2010 #403 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Can you drive a fork lift:confused::p I am qualified to drive a 4, 10, 15k forklift.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeBeCruisin' Posted May 12, 2010 #404 Share Posted May 12, 2010 A L L E N!! Thanks! And that's at the Teeter....one of the more expensive chains around! I was thinking about your cruise the other day...wondering if you were dancing and singing "just a gigolo"???? LOL. Liv, a lot of people have called me a Cruise Gigolo in the past year or so. I have no idea what they are talking about!!! :eek: Although I AM sharing a balcony cabin with a lovely woman on the Splendor in October, but the biggest hanky panky involved will probably be switching each other's bookmarks to the wrong place in our Bibles. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aknot Posted May 12, 2010 #405 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Can you drive a fork lift:confused::p Ive operated a Bobcat which I will guess is similar in controls. Do I need to provide the forklift? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Margarita Mom Posted May 12, 2010 #407 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Like most logical people, I follow rules that make logical sense. Don't kid yourself in thinking that you follow all rules or would follow all rules. All of us are guilty of something. I hope AKnot is not posting from work in the middle of the afternoon. Because that would be against the company's rules. And none of us would want to break that rule.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeBeCruisin' Posted May 12, 2010 #408 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I am qualified to drive a 4, 10, 15k forklift.:D I was really wishing for a forklift on the Victory a couple of weeks ago. Apparently, I was tossing and turning a lot on my 1-A twin bed and each time I would toss, the mattress would scoot a couple of inches on the platform. At 4 a.m. it dumped me into that narrow space on the floor between the bed frame and the porthole wall, and then the mattress came crashing down on me. It took me about 20 minutes to get out of that situation since I was on my back and somewhat banged up. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margarita Mom Posted May 12, 2010 #409 Share Posted May 12, 2010 No kidding. But now Carnival is doing something about it and people are getting their tidy whities in a knot because of it. And the ones who were bragging are the ones complaining the loudest about it. I just read this whole thread and I'm not seeing a whole lot of smugglers complaining and threatening to stop cruising because they lost their booze. They are just informing others what is happening. The ones that seem to have A Knot in their face are the anti rule breakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And none of us would want to break that rule.;) Actually I am. However my job affords me that luxury. Sometimes I have tons of time to post watch TV and even sometimes play games. Then there are times im so busy I cant even blink. Also in my line of work if I break the rules I end up out of a job AND put other people at risk. I try not to let that happen.
