If you can't understand being on a working ship and find the terminology silly, don't go on cruises. It is a working ship not a land resort. Stay on land and enjoy what those resorts have to offer.

The captain is a naval officer before anything else. You will not find a cruise line that will allow the officers and staff not to use ship terminology.
