Agree with others that Corona may not even be the worst thing you contract on a Carnival Cruise. Most reputable lines take cleanliness seriously, and I still wouldn’t board one soon. As has been mentioned above, be prepared to get stuck at sea if there is a breakout.

Carnival was a petri dish before Covid.. nope

People will inevitably think they won't get sick and going on a cruise will be fine in August. Carnival should be prepared for quarantines and lockdowns on board, however.

People are **obsessed** with their Carnival cruises... they will go and get sick and Carnival seems to be unaware of how to keep their ships clean... To SC1s point they have been a floating Petri dish.
I think the entire industry will need repeated bad outcomes for the government to shut them down for any of it to stop.
Or less people on the ships MIGHT start helping but doubtful

Hey Everyone!
I’m coming up on one year of working in consulting post under grad in a financial services vertical. I know I want to transition to corporate strategy down the road, but don’t have much interest in financial service strategy. Should I try and switch into a more applicable practice such as M&A or operations? Will I be able to break into corporate strategy without any past experience in that industry? I want to avoid getting pigeonholed into FS, but with COVID, don’t want to leave.

Hi, I'm an artist with 5 years of experience in the game developmentindustry.

After interview sessions, it comes to salary negotiation. To my surprise, the salary offer is below industry average, even more like junior-level salary.

Though my experience includes team leadership and I have described in detail how I could contribute to the company, the interviewer raised the offer, adding $300 only, still in junior salary range.

What does it really mean, and how do I win the negotiation?
