How I know this job is the right fit for me

I have been on vacation just about a month now and I have to say that although I love being home, I also find myself missing the ship.  This never happened when I was a stage staff, but as a light tech I enjoy my job so much that even during my vacation I'm thinking about things I'm going to accomplish when I get back.

In the past few weeks my mom has both sold her current house and bought a new one, so my last few weeks of vacation are going to be spent moving and doing some wiring at the new place.

One last thing: I don't know if there are any first time cruisers reading this blog, but if there are MAKE SURE YOU SEE THE ICE SHOWS (if you are on an RCI ship that has them).  I truly can't believe the number of people who never even get to Studio B until the last day of the cruise and sometimes those guests will ask me when the ice show is and it's painful to tell them that they're too late.  The showtimes are advertised both in the cruise compass and by the cruise director at every possible opportunity.  Even if you don't THINK you'll enjoy the show, just go.  Give it a chance, what's it going to cost you, 45 minutes?  It's worth it.
