I struck up a conversation with one of the event/activity organizers on the cruise I took last summer. One of the only employees on the entire boat who was from the US, actually. She loved the job, but it's basically 4ish months of working every single day. No days off, no weekends, etc. You then get about a month off, before you get called into duty again.
Sounds like a pretty good way to build up some cash though -- free room (though probably with a fellow employee, and the crew's quarters are pretty spartan, I bet) and food, and you get to travel the world! I'd do it, if I wasn't married already...
