Royal Caribbean lays off 400, most are from S. Fla.

McCain, Cheney, and Bush, too bad none of you are affiliated with the oil industry. If some of you were, with your positions of political power in America, you could have SAVED THIS ONCE GREAT NATION. Sad, how so many industries and businesses are falling apart because of oil prices.

bye bye Ferzli

I've worked for rccl since june 2000. It was a good experience but the management abuses their power and has no remorse for family life and hard workers. I was laid of due to not obtaining a visa to return to a ship in europe. My reason was i got so caught up in seeing my daughter that i forgot and I got laid of with no benefits. The company kept giving me a run around everytime and i said enough is enough and gave up. Royal caribbean is just a show and they don't care about crew members. The managers are racial and they use hard workers and dump them so they wont pay out benefits. They cover up alot and you can see that from the murder that took place on the brilliance of the seas. They sent their cleaning crew to remove the evidence. Royal caribbean cruiselines is a slave industry to third world countries. Government authorities should look into the treatment of third world workers on cruise lines especially rccl. Workers get as much as 506 us dollars a month and that is what they get to take care of their families. Specifically cleaners and galley personel. shame on rccl. If someone is not american then they stand to be abused by rccl.
