Who'd have guessed working on a flagship like this one might be, I don't know, busy? As in, twenty jobs to do in half the time at double the speed. As in, it's hard to pay attention to some glitchy website when there's not enough hours in the day to do everything that's gotta be done. Oh, and if anyone of you think this kind of travel's fun?

Hello, Doctor McCoy. I'm sorry that your work has been so time-consuming; do you have other doctors on duty with you for emergencies?

[losttheplanet]

Yeah, plenty of 'em, but Red Alerts mean everyone on deck, and we seem to get hit with one of those every week.

[nopodbaydoors]

I see.

Maybe it would be wise to stop getting into situations that trigger alerts, then?

[losttheplanet]

I'm a doctor, not a navigator. I don't control where this ship goes on a good day.

I have a feeling that if you were in charge, there would be fewer casualties. However, I do not understand how your ship works, and therefore I cannot make an accurate assumption.

[losttheplanet]

A feeling's not good enough. Even if we keep getting dragged into these situations, our captain always gets us out of them. I'm best at my job, nothing else, and I'd rather not take the chance.

That's a strange admission. Don't most humans want to be the one in power?

[losttheplanet]

Not me. Guess I'm the exception that proves the rule.
