[snip]Once Karl was at the three story building, the first floor just a basic lobby mostly with smaller maintenance off shoots, while the second and third floors were given over to meeting rooms and office labs. Entering through the double plexi-glass doors he saw the lobby was about 50x50 or so feet square roughly with a side elevator that went up and down it seemed and another to the right which was an emergency stair access up and down. In the center of the well shined floor and grey-brown color tones sat a woman in a simple worker’s outfit typing away at a PADD. Hearing the hiss the double doors made as Karl entered she looked up setting the PADD aside. “..Ah yes, hello. NE Technician forwarded a message to me of your expected arrival. May I ask your name so I can sign you in and forward your needs to the appropriate person?” she asked.

“Of course, Karl Johansson” He said with a friendly smile “If it matters for your records I am the Starfleet Chief Engineer by occupation and a Master Chief by rank” He added almost as an afterthought “I need to see the repair documents regarding an incident a week or two ago, I believe it was a repair team led by a Team Lead Garns Designation Repair Team 19. Power fluctuations in the northern pole area. I’d also need access to all maintenance reports since the last Starfleet Inspections but if at all possible I’d like to see the incident report first” He put his toolbox down and clasped his hands behind his back.

The woman nodded a bit, scrolling through a PADD for the information requested as well as registering Karl into their visiting system. “..Ok Mr Johansson you are now registered in the visitation system, here is your visitor pass please keep it on you at all times. Be warned it will beep loudly if you attempt to access areas visitors are not allowed..” She said handing him a pin on tag. Returning to the PADD she nodded again after a moment, “..Ah yes Team Lead Garns for that repair team and incident is currently in maintenance office 9. One moment while I call him..” She said.
Karl smiled his friendliest smile “Thank you kindly” and inclined his head as he took the pass. He frowned internally, he’d wanted to see the written file not speak with the inspector, there was no useful information to be gleamed when speaking with a person, people unlike machines were notably unreliable. ALthough she had said she’d point him to the correct person he was disappointed he couldn’t just find a quiet place to read reports
After a pair of beeps a gruff yet well groomed bearded man in his late 30s came up on the screen, =/\= Yes what is it, Stacey? =/\= Garns spat clearly annoyed that someone interrupted whatever he had been doing.
”..Apoligies for interrupting Mr Garns, but one of the Fleeters is here to review an engineering incident with you while with team 19 handling repairs of a power fluncation at the northern geothermal pole station two weeks ago? His name is Karl Johansson..” She said.
=/\= Bah! Fleeters,…=/\= he said spewing off some no doubt foul insults about such people under his breath that the comm mic did not pick up, =/\= Fine fine, send him down to office 9! =/\= He said then ending the call.
”…Mr Garns will see you in office 9, please take the left hall down to the ninth door on your left. Anything else I can help you with?” She asked.

“No thank you, ma’am, I appreciate the help.” He grabbed his gear, waved the woman farewell and made his way down the hall.
“Mr Garns?” Karl said when he arrived “Karl Johannson, Starfleet Engineering” He’d considered calling himself a Fleeter as the locals did, mostly because it might be amusing but thought better of it, Garns seemed like a foul-tempered man, Karl was not a person well-liked by foul-tempered people, his upbeat personality and generally pleasant demeanour annoyed them, until of course it won them over. “I understand you found some odd readings a few weeks ago” HE asked with a smile.
