    Mad as Hell, NO MORE PAST GUEST PINS

    What the hell. Just got back from cruise, cabin boy says Carnival not giving out past guest pins? 12 cruises and they cutback on pins. Was really pissed, went to guest services and canceled all tips, guess I will do some cut backs too!!! I feel better now.

    Re: Mad as Hell, NO MORE PAST GUEST PINS

    Why cut back the tips? The crew didn't do it,Carnival did,you punished the wrong people! Thats the problem with knee jerk reactions,they seldom solve the problem and effect people who did nothing wrong.

    All this over a pin? Wow, am I missing something here? Can't you just buy some little something to remind you about this cruise? What exactly is the big deal about these past guest pins? What do they look like?

    Re: Mad as Hell, NO MORE PAST GUEST PINS

    Did guest services say that Carnival wasnt going to give out the pins? Maybe it was just the way that the cabin stewart said it.

    Re: Mad as Hell, NO MORE PAST GUEST PINS

    As much as I enjoy getting our pins, I have a collection of them, it will not affect our tipping.  I am not sure it is true.  You can't trust everyone on this forum.  We got them in December.  If it is true, I'll be darned if I will take it out on the cabin stewards.  What do they have to do with anything?  You are shooting the messenger.

    Re: Mad as Hell, NO MORE PAST GUEST PINS

    Sounds JUST like Nixie doesn't it...God forbid...the hater of all things fun & good! Time to get this "so-called" Big John axed!

    Who gives a damn about a stupid pin?! What an absolute ignorant thing to say...not tipping because of a pin that probally costs 50 cents to make...Jesus! Get a life & more importantly...GO AWAY!
