This is just a daft ideal wondering but I wondered if anyone would be kind enough to answer this for me.
Say for example that in the first or second class smoking rooms or the third class "common room"
i) A man has far too much to drink and is making a fool of himself and greatly annoying the other passengers.
or
ii) Mr X accuses Mr Y of cheating at cards. Mr X smashes his glass onto the floor, grabs by Mr Y by the throat and turns the air blue with his language.
Situations like this surely must have happened from time to time on the liners during their heyday.
Did White Star ever have any established protocol advising their stewards just what to do in such a sticky situation ?
Would the company have "had their back" if a steward decided to (for the safety of themselves and others) physically restrain someone for example ?
Apologies if it's a silly question. Moderators, please delete it if you consider it so.
Thank You
