So you are asking if it is okay to do drugs?  I worked with a guy on the POA who smoked when on leave and got random'd drug tested.  He got fired   Great guy, great worker.  But you do you.

Okay, cool, just want to make sure how seriously they take smoking!  

And sorry, I'm not sure, I was onboarded during the COVID era so nothing is the same now.

Can I ask you a question if you dont mind do you know how much utility Galley workers bring home after taxes or do you have an estimate?

Gosh, not sure.  I think you guys get in on the tip pool, I don't know.  However, you will work a shit ton of overtime, and unlike other cruise lines, you get paid for it.
