[USS Charon] Sd241105.22 Revised Science Report/ +"Bolian coffee" Duty Log (Sciene Team)

ON:

//---Shuttlebay 1: Ferengi trading station---//

 

"I can't believe you actually paid for this."  Ensign Vorn, Arcos assistant, said to the stellar cartography assistant, petty officer Roberts.  As the two stood looking at a crate of Bolian coffee.

"It's not that big of a deal, he threw in some herbal remidies. Here take a look at the supply chart."  Then took a look at the crates he unloaded.

The Ferengi dealer looked over at them both whistled and said "Well I better be going." Then casually entered his shuttle and set course to leave as quickly as he could.

"OH NO…" They both said together.  "What are we going to do with 35 kilograms of Bolian herbal coffee!"

//----Science Office---//

"Please explain to me your research project proposal again Mr. Vorn?" Commander Arcos didn't quite get the cutting edge nature of the assignment.

"Well… it's like I said, we are going to put together two laboratory research projects.  One in Biology, one in chemistry…"

Arcos listened to the proposal then looked over at Enisgn Vorn.  "Alright… sounds like you've got your work cut out for you.  Where are you going to get a hold of the "So'latte" herb and the Gorn herbal remidies?"

"Don't worry about that sir… we got a good deal on both a week ago.  The supplies are being off loaded as we speak… just one thing.  The coffee er herbal solution had to be purchased by the crate."

"So…"

"Well there's going to be a lot left over…"

"Why not open the study up to crew to participate in a clinical trial? Vorn, get talking to the Medical team… see if they have any ideas, otherwise… You two can disperse the extras as gifts from your monthly credit allowances."

The two palm faced… "Our Monthly Credit Allowances?"

VI. Science Commanders comments
_________________________________________

+Lab Assignments: If you come up with a good research assignment, just begin the process in character by developing a Pre-Lab report. I have attached a request form, just fill it in, and write something in character above about your character putting the report together.

+Training:  If you are looking to advance in rank and you are a non-commissioned officer we will develop a role-play training month on in differing lab assistant positions.  Once completed you might be promoted to Technician, after you master a lab for another month we should be able to promote you to specialist… at which point you'd be specialized to an inner department.  As for leading a lab, we might be able to get you to work on your petty officer rank requirements and start training you on lab set up/and running the lab… not sure on the time requirement on that one, but we should be able to get you working on a story line in character.

+So'latte: Bolian Coffee exports have brought in some samples to be used for the chemistry department.  In addition to the samples needed for the lab, a bulk supply has left us in the excess of over thirty kg of "So'latte" Bolian coffee.  Inquire with the science department in acquiring yours today.

+Attached Reports: (NONE)
