Posted Jan. 13, 2019, 9:30 p.m. by Warrant Officer Walker Darach (Chief Operations Officer) (Steve Johnson)
Walker let out his breath as he materialized on the Manhattan, how in the world did he get himself convinced to do this. He had spent a lifetime standing up for his crewmen against the officers, but he let them make him one of those officers. A Warrant Officer, but still an officer.
“Welcome aboard sir,” the crewman at the transporter console said as he stepped off the pad.
Walker just shook his head. “Son, don’t call me sir, I work for a living.”
“Yes si.... um… I mean… Yes Warrant Officer,” he stammered.
Walker nodded. “As you were Crewmen.”
Hefting his sack, Walker made a quick stop by his rack on the way to the bridge. He wasn’t quite sure what he was going to do with all of that space in his quarters. He always traveled light between postings, as an non-comm you never got that much space. So you learned to pack light. But now, it was almost to much space.
As he stepped onto the bridge, he tugged at his collar slightly, and adjusted his uniform. Better to get this part over with, so he could get started on his work. Stepping up to the ready room he tapped the chime and waited.
