I replied, "you are sitting on the pool deck on a cruise ship in the Caribbean. Not many associate that with working." And when it is a new quarter, he has to print quarterly reports for his clients. If I needed to accomplish something and didn't want distractions I probably would not be on the pool deck. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people on here think he is this super wealthy minted as we say in UK guy and he is not. He is working slob like the rest of us. If he was wealthy I think the super mario thing would be a lot more trimmed down. There are or where and will be again I am sure people who live on cruise ships without drawing attention to themselves like Mario does by his working the way he does. Part of the attention he gets is for the working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone here knows the noise, commotion, and distractions of the pool deck on a Caribbean sea day. It is far from an environment conducive to work requiring concentration. I won't speculate as to the reasons for him setting up his "office" there.... but I have my thoughts on the matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's outside where he can smoke. He did say how much he was saving by booking an inside cabin instead of a balcony, but he did it because it removed the temptation to smoke there. But he still went to the pool deck before when balcony smoking was allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are talking about new york and english soccer supporters not london and house prices.😀 Sadly liverpool are more supported then Chelsea. Are you a newcastle or sunderland fan Graham? Sunderland are not well supported in NYC though the toon army are legendary. You have probably seen their exploits in the newcastle chronicle over the years. Drums and all kinds. I was replying to the comment :- Decaying Street Blocks. Chelsea is one of the most affluent area's in the UK. We go to restaurants in Newcastle but I am a Sunderland supporter.

Chelsea are an English Premier league football club owned by a Russian Billionaire Roman Abramovich. I have never met Mario but as most of us miss our cruising I'm sure he definitely will be missing his cruising. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry is isolating at his and Meghan's cottage in the grounds of Kensington palace. Things have been very quiet regarding Prince Philip and the Royal family this week His funeral is at 3pm on Saturday and 30 family members will attend. Lots of sporting events kick off times have been moved from 3pm to 12.30pm so everyone can show their respects and watch the funeral on TV. Graham.

Mario has got issues to be fair. He probably likes seeing people coming and going from his life and not sticking around. As a pinnacle member, yes, he is entitled to a discount at the spa which includes a hair salon. I often get my hair cut on cruise ships. On one cruise, the captain was at the next chair. Apparently the captain uses the regular (passenger) spa for his hair services. m 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare vacationlover_mn Posted April 15, 2021 #100 Share Posted April 15, 2021 I am by no means an anti-masker. However, we had some “on-site” meetings for work this month, and I had to wear a mask all day. I was hot and uncomfortable, especially when taking meetings with a headset. If I were super Mario, and they required me to wear a mask at my poolside “office” all day, I probably wouldn’t go back to cruising. I know people get used to wearing a mask all day, but it still seems like it would be hot and annoying day after day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
