Ensign Falco reporting.

 

Busy. That's the word that describes my job right now. Since my assignment to Aegis there have been a wide array of problems for me to fix. From station critical systems like the docking clamps and computer core, to the simple everyday things like replicators and environmental controls. It seems like everytime myself or one of the other engineers fix something, more is added to the list.

 

We've been so busy that I haven't really noticed much that has gone on outside lately. Chief got called away on an emergency assignment. One of the Cardassian mining colonies was under attack. He and some other officers from Aegis were sent to assist, so the rest of us in engineering have been trying to keep things intact while he is gone. I also understand we have guests on board the station right now. I've not heard much about these Rixians, but most of the officers are currently in a formal banquet to meet them. Fortunately for myself, I've been too busy in engineering to attend. Personally I don't care for formal events anyway.

 

Speaking of busy, one of the cargo transporters is on the fritz. It'll probably take me the better portion of a day to get it back up and running. Not that I don't mind it though. I was born for this job.

 

 

"Computer end log."

 

I then get up from the workstation, grab my toolkit, and quickly leave Main Engineering.
