I always read on SB about some DM that did this or did that to somebody. We always hear the recreational divers version as the poor victim of some A hole divemaster.
Well, I'd like to change things around for once. I'd like to know what recreational divers and people do that can really piss off a divemaster?
Divemasters work their butts off for very little pay and sometimes not even for that. They have to put up with a lot of crap and still hold a smile. It can be a real thankless job.
I'd like to know from our fleet of DM's on this board what are some of the things that gall you the most that people do, things that really get under your skin, whether it's on a charter boat, in a class, on a guided tour, maybe an instructor your working for or interning with, a shop you're connected with, anything.
People, pay attention. This is their time to vent about YOU for once.
We can all learn from this and become better customers and better divers.
