The office of the Chief Engineer was now an office without any decorations, the previous Chief’s stuff had been cleaned out and now awaited the new Chief to move in and make it their own. Karl had served under many Chiefs in his nearly twenty years in the service and he’d been happy just to do the work, occasionally he’d been forced to do some administrative work and even Bridge duty but generally, he’d considered it beyond him, so when the Captain gave him his new uniform with the rank of Master Chief Petty officer and the title of Chief Engineer he was more than a little surprised, fo rthe latter title he was more than experienced enough but he’d never considered it. The former was a bit of a surprise as he thought himself a few years too young for the rank, but he’d been offered the duty and he accepted and would perform it to the best of his ability.
He stood in front of his new desk, staring at it as one would a strange beast, he’d been in here plenty enough during staff meetings or simply conversations with his boss, but now he was the boss, excluding staff meetings with Commander Alden or Captain Rogers he was the highest authority when it came to decisions regarding the ship’s mechanical health. Hands-on hips and a frown on his face he put together a mental list for what needed to get done.
