Cruise ships can carry thousands of passengers. With that volume of people come many different jobs, from dancing in a cabaret show (if you have the legs) to security work and dealing cards at a blackjack table. With your meals and accommodation paid for, you can pocket most of your pay.

The hours are often punishing but, when the boat docks, you can explore foreign lands in your downtime. You’ll need your sea legs, though: even giant ocean liners hit stomach churning swells at times.
