<Lt. Cmdr. Kindle - Main Engineering>

"Good work everyone. I've been impressed by everyone's skill and teamwork. With the exception of the computer core, everything is running smoothly. Give yourselves a pat on the back and get out of here." The engineering crew turned to smile at each other - during this long day, this group of strangers have proven to be an efficient team and have every right to be proud of themselves. As they the group broke up and headed out of the room that had seemed so large at the beginning of the day, Chandy called out again, "Remember, you will be informed shortly on the day and night shifts - the night shifts starts soon, but for now go and get some rest. You all deserve it."

Chandy went back in her small office and sat down at the desk. She smiled softly to herself as she brought up the engineering roster and began to assign everyone to a shift depending on what she had learned of each one during the day. Although she was glad the day was over, she finally felt comfortable in her position.

There came a signal at the door. "Yes?"

"Hi Chief. You're not leaving yet?"

"Not yet Zahn. Got to finish up a bit of paperwork and send it off to...oh what's his name? The head Operations Officer...."

"That's Lt. Cmdr. Mortimer."

"Moritmer, that's right. I also want to give the computer core a little more thought. Anyway, good work today Ensign - now get out and enjoy yourself before I put you on the night shift."

Ensign Zahn replied with a smile, "Yes Ma'am!"

Chandy finished filling out the roster and sent it off to Operations. Leaning back in her chair, she closed her eyes and let her mind drift back over the days events. She shrugged off the loss of her luggage. "At least there was nothing of too much importance in there. I'll just have to remember to contact the Academy and StarFleet headquarters to get copies of my paperwork."  With a half-laugh she remembered something else. Opening up the computer display on her desk, she asked, "Computer, can you show me where my quarters are?"
