The guest of the WORLD podcast was Jiří Horáček, who came to share with you his experience working as a bartender on a luxury cruise ship in the Caribbean. Passengers associate such an experience with relaxing on the surface of the ocean with a drink in hand, but Jirka got to know what was happening on the cruise ship from the other side of the barricade, from where he describes the ship as a giant anthill. In the podcast, you will learn a lot about Jirko's working life, from more or less bar stories with guests to the possibilities of earning as a bartender. Despite the fact that working on the ship was a psychological blow for Jirka, he also enjoyed some good moments. In the podcast, he talks about the amazing places in the Caribbean, about the most beautiful sunset in his life, which he experienced right on the boat, and also about his co-workers, who have been working on the boat for over 20 years and therefore supported him in his early days on the boat. Enjoy Jirk's entire interesting story in the podcast itself. We wish you a pleasant listening experience! Have an idea for an interesting guest or topic? Let us know!
