Since Bones tells me this isn't an extended vacation and that I should get a job, let me ask this: any jobs out there for displaced starship captains?

Yeah yeah I know there was some talk of jobs right when we got back here in Texas, but I was still too new. Also, I didn't want to get a job. I still don't. But - I'm erring on the side of doing what my doctor ordered.

Excellent leadership skills, expert knowledge of advanced quantum mechanics, ability to drink other people under the table, really good communication skills, tactical and command training ...

Ya might find something at one of the garages if'n ya can fix regular old cars and motorcycles.

I had a motorcycle until I gave it away.

Not a bad idea... thanks.

Sure thing. The rest of what ya listed might not give ya much to go on. Unless ya try out one of the bars for drinking people under the table. Though I think you'll find plenty of people who can one up ya on that.

We probably still have some openings at the Fort.

Doing what?

Mostly either guarding the portal or doing documentation.

Boring on both accounts.

Shocking that you have that opinion. Look, this place isn't exactly Risa, and Starfleet doesn't even exist. I'm not sure how many options you have.

I'm guessing you're looking for something that involves defying death on a daily basis?

Actually, I thought I might work as a mechanic.

Really? You know how to fix things?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

... yes I know how to fix things, Bones.

Like cars, circa 2018?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]nottiberius

Yes.

I'm skeptical, but then that's not really surprising.

How would you know how to fix an ancient car?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]nottiberius
2018-04-30 01:36 am UTC (link)
Because I've done it before.

Yes.

I guess that makes sense. Didn't your stepfather used to collect classic cars?

Still, I've never seen you as Scotty, Jim.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]nottiberius

Yeah.

Classic cars are a lot different from the engines of the Enterprise, you know.

Still never had you pegged as the engineering type.

Lots you don't know about me, Bones.

If you say so, Jim.

I do say so.

I’m having a similar problem. In that jobs sound terrible right now but are apparently necessary.

Yeah, that's the thing about this century, especially.

It’s the way of the world. I don’t want to teach. Not sure how I feel about most of this stuff.

How long have you been around?

I got here just after the apparently very exciting Sunday in which monsters showed up.

Ah.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]andrieski
2018-04-28 12:03 am UTC (link)
Yeah. At least there seem to be more people to entertain myself with. Talking to only one person for a while is not very entertaining. Really limits things.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]nottiberius
2018-04-28 12:04 am UTC (link)
Yes, it does. But I've found most people here as pretty friendly.

[info]andrieski
2018-04-28 12:06 am UTC (link)
Yeah. They seem all right. Everyone from my world is the wrong Timeline, so that's a bit disorienting. But it's not so bad.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]nottiberius
2018-04-28 12:06 am UTC (link)
Oh hey, I've got two timelines from my world too. Didn't realize that was a common thing.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]andrieski
2018-04-28 12:11 am UTC (link)
We have 40. Everyone else is 40. I'm 23. Apparently I'm dead in 40, so it sounds like a shitty timeline.

Wow. That's a hell of a lot of timelines.

Apparently that's what happens when someone can use magic to make timeloops.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]nottiberius

Yeah magic probably complicates things.
