[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kate is a really terrible manager but this crossed the line to abusive and I thought the Caroline bullying rose to the level that the Captain fell short by not noticing/dealing with it. At a minimum, he should be instituting new routines with Kate's reports including the new stew to make sure nothing like that is going on. It doesn't matter if she was a basket case or whatever. Kate was her boss. Boss first. And she sucked at it - utterly unprofessional.

Chandler just sucked too. I hate business management shit as much as the next person but Chandler and Kate are two people with no business running a team. They draw their power from the wrong places. That's what went wrong with Chandler that night out where he went nuts and then tried to punish his team with an early start, and that's what went wrong with Kate when Caroline wasn't performing and instead of managing her to improvement, Kate just made the situation untenable. [/quote]

I agree. I hated watching Chandler as much as I hated the rhoided up bro who was the bosun with Bobby and another female deck crew member. There is a lot of sexism on the boats though. I would never work for Kate or someone like her. She is endlessly snide and from the first season made it clear she is jealous of the guests as she expected to have their lives.

I can't believe Caroline's age and thought she didn't handle things well but through all the seasons the lowest ranked crew are generally treated horribly. The crew know they are "actors" brought on for reasons other than having potential to be good at the job. It has to be grating.

[b]What surprises me most is that I thought this season they had the strongest crew I'd seen. Initially it appeared everyone had lots of experience[/b]. [/quote]

Me, too.  They looked like the dream team in the beginning before the first charter.  That dinner in the water with the stingrays and sharks swimming around looked very cool.[/quote]
