hrhdhd Posted November 3, 2021 #8 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I used to proofread for a living, and now I have a side gig as a proofreader. I am offering my services to Celebrity at my usual hourly rate of $50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Turtles06 Posted November 3, 2021 #9 Share Posted November 3, 2021 The "Welcome Aboard" tab in the Celebrity app for our cruise in December on the Silhouette out of Fort Lauderdale gives us driving instructions to the port of Southampton, UK, and the email I received this morning with our eDocs said: "If you require assistance, please contact our Reservations Department at: Celebrity Cruises: 0344 493 2043 (UK) (Calls will cost no more than a call to a 01 or 02 number) 1800 932 611 (EIRE)." I realize that the Silhouette was based in Southampton until recently, but Celebrity really needs to have someone in charge of the accuracy of what they send out.

Covepointcruiser Posted November 3, 2021 #11 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Get used to the proof reading, spelling errors. If you have worked with any recent high school or even college grads you will know they can’t spell. It may be because of texting or just shortcomings in our educational systems. You will also learn that basic math is also beyond them unless they have a PC or Phone to do calculations for them. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m afraid to disappoint all of my English teachers from grammar, junior high, and high school, “literally afraid”. Lazy is another term for it.

FeebeeH Posted November 4, 2021 #21 Share Posted November 4, 2021 A recent Captain's Club newsletter advertising The Celebrity Edge for the 2023/24 season made mention of "Tazmania". The Tasmanians would just love that! I wrote to Celebrity pointing out the errors of their ways .... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no love for Gen Z's communication skills, but it's not the only group that can't use language correctly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
