On the cruise we took, I calculated that if eveyone the our head waiter served tipped what was recommended, it came out to well over $1000 for the one week. As service-inudstry jobs go, especially considering that they have room and board covered while they're on the ship, and considering the alternate choices in the home countries of most of the crew, that's a pretty hefty sum of money (even considering that it's seasonal).
