Hello, and welcome.

As I know you are beginning to feel the effects of Ingress travel, I will keep this brief and to the point. By now, most of you are aware that this is not your home, and if you are not, I would like to stress the importance of this fact. All details have been outlined to you in the contract each of you has already signed, and I hope you will come to know the Moira as your second home as we journey forward. Everyone must do their part for this voyage to succeed. Those who do not wish to follow this straightforward rule shall be dealt with accordingly.

Please direct any questions or concerns to either myself or one of the other captains. We are as interested in going home as you are.

[ he will not be stuck cleaning out sanitation pipes he will not and if he thinks that hard enough maybe it'll come true ]

Right. So what exactly determines job assignment, then?

[galalith]

The captains review the information provided regarding a new member of the crew and match their skill-set to jobs currently available. Do you wish to submit a formalized complaint to be reviewed? There may be a delay in answer due to the sudden influx of new crew aboard the Moira. During this time you will still be required to work your assigned job.

[ oh thank god he has a potential out. maybe...just maybe. ]

Yes. Yes, I would. I mean, I'm not going to refuse to work flat-out, but -- yes. Consider the complaint submitted.

...This assignment didn't have anything to do with my size, did it?

[galalith]

Job assignments are not biased by physical size. As stated there will be room for advancement in the future. Your request for review of your assignment as been submitted to the captains. We thank you in advance for your patience as we deal with this time of transition, Crewman Vorkosigan.

[ well that's something, at least. miles is somewhat mollified. ]

Thank you, much appreciated.

You wouldn't happen to know what happened to any lost possessions, would you? I've got most of my personal effects with me, but a couple of them are missing. Not confiscated, I hope?

[ why they'd confiscate a knife and not a nerve disruptor is beyond him, but this place is pretty screwy to begin with. ]
