So some people have looked at trying to disable the augments, which hasn't ended well, but what about what they do? I know that they give us - or enhance - a skill for our jobs here, and that they can give you additional skills or 'powers'.

( If you bought them or- however it happened. She hasn't found out that much about that yet. It's a whole work in progress )

But what about the skills we have, and our ship jobs. I was put into medical, and I had some medical knowledge before coming here - though the augment gave me everything else. Has anyone been given a job that they had never worked in before? Or something that they would never do? Or are we being perfectly selected?

( Because, even with the augments, putting someone in a job they had zero knowledge of before could cause something to happen. Unless they don't want to 'influence their ratings' that way )

And, related, has anyone ever changed their job?

Not at all. I'm still rather stumped about it. Perhaps because we already had a communications officer on the ship?

[intelligently]

You'd think that having more than one would be useful. What are you now?

[bryces_pup]

I am a tactical officer. And we received several drawers and spaces for storage with my job switch.

[intelligently]

So equipment comes with us too. Did your ship lose anything for communications when you were switched?

[bryces_pup]

I don't think so? Not that I've noticed. But we still have a communications officer.

[intelligently]

It could be more noticeable if there was only one person in that job. I'm the only medic on my ship - what would happen if I was changed?

[bryces_pup]

Perhaps they would entirely take away whatever equipment you use. I am not sure. That's an answer someone who's been here longer could probably answer better.

[intelligently]

If it's happened before - someone changing without anyone being there - we'd have the answer easily.

[bryces_pup]

Perhaps. Hopefully someone can provide it. May I ask what prompted this question?

[intelligently]

Curiosity. I don't have enough answers about this place.

[bryces_pup]

A common problem for everyone. Our "host" is a bit too good at covering their tracks.

[intelligently]

They can't keep it up forever.

[bryces_pup]

I hope you're right.
