Swamped

[precip 0]

Mitar was tired.

 

The facial regognition software he had added to the PRECIPCAM system had identified the crewmen entering and exiting Main Engineering during the period Admiral Atragon had ordered Precip to investigate. All had been identified as Engineers, except one.

 

Marguax Roget. His predecssor, his mentor.

 

Precip rubbed his eyes. It had been the ROGETCAM system installed on the original Manticore that had been very useful to his former suprerior. And now, on the Manticore-A..a similiar system that his mentor wasn't aware of (he presumed)...caught her image entering then leaving engineering right around the time of the illegal transmission sent from MENG.

 

What was she doing there? Paying a social call to Chief Garnoopy? To his knowledge she rarely fraternized with engineers..

 

::his mind ached:: Reviewing the PRECIPCAM had taken hours and it wasnt the only thing on his plate he had to deal with.

 

The Engineer that Lt. Cdr. Kansas Kenickie subdued on Romulus had filed a complaint, the complaint was an assault on an officer. That officer being Lt. Doug T. Kenickie had already filed an incident report regarding the matter and from what interviews he had conducted with the security detail on the Romulan misssion..her actions were apparently justified. But Doug. T's superiors wanted an investigation on Kenickie's conduct and Precip was forced to comply no matter what his officers had said.

 

He was basically going to have to interview everyone from the Away Team on the Romulus misssion to obtain a "fair and balanced" picture of what happened. Upon accumulating sufficient testimony, only then could Precip decide if Lt Cdr. Kansas Kenickie should be disciplined.

 

Mitar rolled his chair away from his desk holding his hands to his head and groaned. The medical problems he had had, the strain of commanding Manticore in Romulan Space and these investigations were taking a toll on him. He was swamped. He needed rest.

 

He did not see any rest coming.
