Punishment or Learning Experience? That is the Question

Cleaning out the cage she growled. She never knew spiders were this messy, or discusting. Cobwebs, spider cocoons of dead things it had eaten, stuff she wasn't even sure of. She knew the spider wasn't in it, so she shook it clean, then started wiping it out, shaking her head in disgust.

 

"God, it is one thing to help by cleaning out basins, vials and petri dishes, but this... this is just.. stupid." She cleaned it though, not wanting to annoy off another of the ships Superior Officers. Hell the only thing NOT a superior officer to her was... the spider. She dried it out and looked around, putting it back together, hating to do this menial, houseworkers job.

 

"Computer, Personal Log, Stardate 0803.30."

 

She moved around the science department, cleaning up as she went along. "I have started the difficult task of fulfilling my duties to do extra work in the science department. So far I am cleaned, cleaned, and cleaned. No helping in the department beyond being a glorified housekeeper. I suppose it is no differant than what I would in the Medical Bay, since I clean there as well. I was just hoping I would get to figure out some new goo, or some sort of new anomoly. Nope, I cleaned out an alien spiders cage. Whatever, the Captain has me doing it for some reason, so I will do it. Unfortunatly he didn't put a deadline on the end of my "punishment", so I have no idea how long this will go on."

 

She sighed, putting things where they belonged. "I hope it isn't forever, though I am Medically trained, I am not a fan of Science. Pointing out things that may be of no use, investigating asteroid belts for something that may not be there. I prefer the Physiology side of science. Anatomy, healing, investigating diseases of the body. Not anomolies. Too bad Sam isn't here, I am sure this would be far more fun if she were. Welp, my shift is over, so I will go get some sleep, and head right back to work."

 

"Computer, Eng Log." She walked out of science, and headed towards her room.

I take full offense at being called "disgusting" and "messy", and since I am a very single spider, I should hope that I'm not spinning cocoons.

 

I will thank you quite kindly not to use such epithets in the future.

 

Thanks for the maid service!

So sorry, I fixed it. I meant cocoons of food. Not babies. As for the discusting comment, she has never dealt with bugs before, and she has a severe fear of spiders. Sorry.
