I'm a former marine, men's dept of the US Navy, it doesn't take long at all to get settled in.
Ship life is interesting for sure, I forget what they call it when you have to work the mess decks but Marines only had to do it for 30 days while the sailors had to do it it for 6 months, if I were you I'd be trying to get that out of the way now instead of when you have 3,000 people aboard and underway. Do they still blow all the damned whistles while you're in home port?
Pro tip, buy some extra shoes and glue the soles together you'll be thanking me when the water in the showers backs up.
