Being a Club Med G.O is such an intense experience, it's no wonder that going back to "real life" requires some adjustments... Here's a TOP 10 of what I've faced so far in my post-G.O life.
By the way, these things happen DURING G.O life too! I would experience some of these when I would go back home on vacation, or whenever I was between contracts.
If you're an exG.O or current G.O, I'd love to hear about your own experiences. Share below! :)

so true, was for 3 years G.O and still look back at it with much love! i always say, once G.O, Always G.O!!! but she forgot 1 thing. when you go on a holliday at a hotel with animation, you always make a comparison with your CM working experience :-D

@JessLaventure 5 лет назад

Haha, I'm SURE! Someone wrote to me saying that he notices all the little details at events and venues... I made another video to talk about all the other things exG.Os wrote in about, it was so interesting to read all the comments! Check it out, you might relate to a few things too: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-q38gWu3ePv4.html . I personally haven't been back to an all inclusive resort since I left, so I haven't had that experience, but I can certainly imagine feeling the same way you do. :)

@ericeaton4729 3 года назад

Prior to CM triathlons, videography, DJ company, dance competitions, and water sports had been full-time obsessions. Always had a night job and day time career. Mother was a stage director and we never liked to act even though we became very good. The two things that changed after 13 seasons were more surfing less windsurfing, and I could make anything I wanted to eat anytime. The decline of CM occurred when they stopped hiring based on athleticism and talent causing the elimination of the shows and sports that made CM so exceptional in the 80's - 90's...

@jaylove8230 3 года назад

Driving again... is not as enjoyable as before being a GO. The no commuting to work was amazing just a 2 min walk from the GO building I miss that. My commute now is 1 hr to the airport then a 2.5 hr flight plus an additional 30 min cab ride to my commuter pad just for work.

@JessLaventure 3 года назад

Yes!!! Commuting SUCKS! I loved that I could leave my GO room 5 minutes before the start of my shift!

@Stevah00 4 года назад

AAHHAA, Never a GO but 25x a GM, often for 2 weeks in the old days. For me, it was always CanCun or now Turks. I remember Sonora Bay (my first- you can never go home again) and Martinique where the little frogs say "gleep" every evening and the land crabs would invade the dining hall and go under the tables. HA. I did not appreciate Columbus Isle although it was beautiful. But the best was two times to Morea, a gem of a club with fondest memories of friends and moments. I can relate, when you return it is a chore to start to cook and do all the real-life things again but you still keep that glow and the little smile that comes from a little place in your brain that remembers all the good times. Going back to Turks again, Aug. 31. GOs are the best they are all so professional and you know they will go on to do even better things with their life. Good luck to you.

@JessLaventure 4 года назад

Thanks so much for sharing Steven! For me, that special Club was Turks... I loved Punta Cana and Cancun, but Turks will always have a special place in my heart. Maybe because this is where I first discovered Club Med as a G.M...? And yes, I agree, the Club Med "glow" always stays with you... :) Sonora Bay and Morea sound beautiful!

@hanhchu6233 5 лет назад

Club Med was built by the GOs who excelled at their craft and truly loved being an entertainer. All over the world, in the Sonora desert where the temperature might reach 50 degrees C or in some other inhospitable corner, the villages were buzzing like a beehive in spring time with activities and laughter. In a tent or a primitive hut, we had a ton of fun with games invented by the GOs. Club Med was growing like a California wild fire building beautiful villages on best beaches in exotic locations. All of this was possible because of the GOs passion for excellence. Many of the rituals that were held close and dear to Club Med heart are no longer practiced at Club Med. A few years ago, I went on vacation at an all inclusive hotel resort on Punta Cana and was pleasantly surprised by the identical games that were no longer in existence at Club Med. The resort wisely seek out old Club Med hands to run their entertainment program. The fiery passion for excellence was and will always be the prime reason for an organization's success until an organization stops believing in it. It would be a sad day for everyone.

Hi jessica, i want to ask about what's the difference between GO and GE International?

@JessLaventure 3 года назад

Hi Alvan, G.Os are staff members that come from around the world and who live in the resort during their contract. They also participate in G.O life, meaning they eat with guests, greet arrivals, participate in shows and other duties that are not related to their main job (instructor, barman/barmaid, restaurant positions, etc). G.Es only have to fulfill the duties related to their job, they don't have to participate in G.O life (they don't eat with guests, don't do the shows, etc.). Most of the time, G.Es don't live in the resorts, they're usually locals and go home every night.

Hey J, did you hear about the GM who was found murdered on Turks in 2018? I did some digging and there seems to be a lot of drama about a possible suspect who was an ex-GO vacationing and harassing the suspects who came with in a group of 3 female friends. I highly doubt it was a GO and happenned the way they "say it might" have happenned. From all my experience(20 yrs) going to club med, the GO's (especially a seasoned/retired GO) are absolutely the most professional, nicest and coolest people you will ever meet. Absolutely, no Chef de Village would tolerate if anybody acted the "way they reported" he acted. If anybody was harassing or just acting "weird" amongst the GM community "we" identify them very quickly. I hate how most people reporting/talking/repeating this story have actually never been to a club med. You can just detect a "snarky" attitude about so called "singles villages"...which club med are no longer that way. You know.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I just got offered a role as a GO and was very excited! ... then I realised everything I’d be leaving behind at home... my incredible job, my boyfriend, my lovely apartment... and the pay is very low. I’m sure it would be a once in a lifetime experience but I’m scared of leaving my life behind! Do you have any advice? Do you think I should go for it?

@JessLaventure 4 года назад

Well... That's a tough one. Unfortunately, I can't answer that for you. I left behind a great job, yes, but I was single, which I think made the decision a little easier. From what I hear, and from I know, it's difficult to keep up a long-distance relationship while you're working with Club Med. You work a lot, you meet a lot of people... Your life really changes, so it can be difficult to feel connected to your life back home. Taking the decision to leave everything behind is a very personal one... For sure, I don't regret a minute of it, and I LOVED my experience. But you do have to be aware that there's a tiny chance that you could lose all of what you have right now. I guess you have to ask yourself: if I say no, will I always regret it? My answer to that was yes, probably, so I chose to take the leap. It's something you have to think about, and it sucks but: only you have to answer to that. Good luck! Sending you lots of hugs. Let me know if you have any questions.

... and when you go back to the Club every year, or twice a year... like we do :) You'll feel constantly like "wow! I'm on vacation from my real job and from Club Med at the same time! Not moving chairs tonight! ... and hey, they like provide towels here and AC in the rooms and everything; rad" ...and other X-GOs will tell stories about how they never had a day off, how they were the most awesome (translation: drunks) in the village, and you will roll your eyes. Awesome vid... all your top 10 hit home. Thank you!!

@JessLaventure 4 года назад

Hahaha, YES! Those are all great points! And now, I guess I'll be that exGO making the new G.Os roll their eyes. hahaha

@marineb2921 5 лет назад

Est ce que on se couche tous le temps tard quand on est go? Si oui à partir de quel heure tu peux y aller?

@JessLaventure 5 лет назад

timtys jump ce sont des longues journées, car tu dois participer à la vie de village le soir (apéro, spectacle, night-club). En générale, tu pourras te coucher vers minuit, peut-être avant si tu as un quart de travail qui commence très tôt.

Salut Jessica, je suis toutes tes vidéos sur le Club med, j'ai depuis tout petit l'envie de travailler au Club med, j'ai postulé sur le site du Club med jobs et j'ai aussi envoyé un mail au responsable du recrutement, cette personne m'a très gentiment recontacté pour me dire qu'il reviendrai vers moi cet été, j'ai postulé pour le poste de serveur en restauration mais également pour le poste de réceptionniste. Je suis également GM du Club med depuis des années avec mes parents, et j'adore le Club med.
