Are the people who work in these factory slaughterhouses/farms genuinely just people trying to make a living (immigrants or uneducated people) or are they normally sociopathic people who take pride in hurting animals for minimum/low wage? From the videos I've seen, plenty are simply intentionally hurting/mistreating the animals for the thrill of it.

I have read several books that chronicle the life of a cruise ship worker (restaurant staff, entertainers, art auctioneer, etc). The recurrent theme was sex, sex, and more sex. That and the tiny rooms that are the size of a coat closet.

What sort of charts and navigational references do you use? I am familiar with the navigation of aircraft and the use of Jeppesen charts. I work as a flight dispatcher and planning the route for flights is a large component of my job. For instance, aircraft primarily navigate to and from waypoints (either physical ground stations that broadcast a signal or most often, long/lat coordinates which are given names for reference) by way of airways (essentially highways in the sky that are numbers). I'm curious as to how it is done for vessels. I know Jeppesen (one of the two main suppliers of aviation navigational references) does Marine stuff as well.
