[ In that case, Metis is lounging comfortably between some cushions and nice seating. ..With yeah their data pad. Relax time? Who is she? ]
O'keefe, then. [ A soft polite air. ]
Ensuring everything is getting covered that is needed in preparation for travel in the upcoming week, that the rest of the crew are tending to their own individual tasks... Simple management. [ "Simple." ]
[ Yeah! Though, the emotion vibes from them are oddly. Blank. ]
Checking in our supplies and wares is more of Thebe's role, however I do oversee those orders and ensure we can get it all done, so.. in a way, yes. But also not. [ A quiet chuckle. ] As Chief of Staff, I'm more of a personal timekeeper, orchestrating our schedules and planning our upcoming essential travels. That and helping coordinate my crew effectively.
[ it's cool, shu's are kinda blank too. although it's clearly more of a... controlled blank, like someone with a proper grasp on their emotionals, rather than just an absence of anything. ]
So, a manager then. Upper manager.
[ schedules and timekeeping... sounds like a lot of responsibility. ] Is there a hierarchy in the eight of you, then? You've told us you're above us in rank, but this sounds like the sort of thing someone higher than just senior would do.
[ Between those two kinds, Metis' is certainly more of an absence. ]
Essentially, yes.
[ There's a flicker of ? in front of their helm before it vanishes. ] Ah, technically Ganymede and I's roles do suggest we are above the rest of them but that is not the case. You can say all eight of us are on the same equal footing.
Well, we all have our respective worlds we came from, so for some of us we may have similar experiences perhaps.. but a lot of it was learned through training under the previous Seniors. I worked under the previous Chief of Staff for some time until their retirement came and I succeeded them.
Maybe I have timelines wrong, but one of you said something about getting a promotion after three months or something. How long have you been working here?
[ because in his mind there’s like eight of them in the whole company and the company really needs that retirement replacement energy now. fast track. ]
The eight of us have been stationed on the Eudora for three months now. We didn't all get promoted at the same time, nor did any of us start with the role we have now.
[ the company is much bigger than just eight people. what is it is there's only eight on this ship, before junior crew came in. ]
When you hire new recruits, and you're nearing that time for retirement, no better time than then to train those to replace you, right? I suppose they saw something promising in us.
It is a lot of weight suddenly, but I have plenty of experience managing so it isn't too much for me personally.
