Jessica quietly listens to the answers the interviewee gives as she looks at her resume. When McKenna has answered Tawfeek's question, she asks "Why did you leave your last place of employment?"

McKenna flushed a bit before answering," I left because my relationship with my partner deteriorated and made it a difficult working environment." She turned her attention to Tawfeek," I've never done long haul, but I am very adaptable."

"Well, then." Tawfeek says. "While we consider your application, I will offer a piece of advice: don't sleep with your crew. Especially not on a long-haul job. You do that and you cause friction. And you won't be able to leave, because you will be stuck with them for weeks or even months at a time. And you can rest assured, it's not worth it."
Cleaning up his desk. He says, professional again. "Thank-you for your time."

McKenna's blush deepened as she stood up," Yes, well if I do go into long haul, I don't intend to get engaged to a cheat either. " She turned and strutted out of the meeting, not expecting to hear from the captain again.
She tried not to let it bother her as she headed into a starport tavern and ordered a draft after taking a seat at the bar.

Before letting Arcturis in, Tawfeek looks over at Jessica with a sigh. "What do you think?"
(In the hall)
Flip and Arcturis see McKenna brush out of there pretty quickly.
(Jakes Airport Bar)
The bartender brings the outrageously priced beer (though, unlike the usual stuff, this is carbonated, so worth the money). "Something on your mind?" he asks, bartenderly.

Jessica shrugs. "She seems qualified enough from what I can gather from her resume. She also seems to have a bit of baggage, but then again, everyone does. I also think she left out some of the story as to why she left her last employer by the way she reacted."

Tawfeek nods. "Hopefully she'll be a little morwe level headed if she gets in. Alright. Next?"
Arcturus's turn! Arcturis?
Behind Flip Foreman, some guy asks. "Wonder what her problem is." He says, sounding more like he wanted to comfort her than help. The guy, who looked well travelled presses on anyways as Arcturus goes in. "Name's Jacob. Curious to see who'ld bring an old heap like that one into space again. What are you hear for?"

(here, just busy)
"Here about the Engineering job. I'm an experienced mechnic on ships, with time on the large coprate cruisers as well." he spoke clearly. He handed him he resume.

McKenna shrugged and shook her head. " Not really. Just needed some suds to wash away some bad memories again." She nursed the drink, having no intentions of getting drunk.

Tawfeek looks over the resumé. "What did you do with KLS?" He asks. "And why are you leaving that for this?"
(McKenna)
"Bad memories tend to follow you around." He says, bartenderly.

"I was a starship engine desinger and tester. I left for my own reasons to get some space, you'll pardon the pun. the corporate labs get stuffy" he stated, "and the politics there are pure hell." he commented.

McKenna forced a smirk, " Then I guess I'll have to keep trying to wash them, won't I? Eventually i'll replaced them with something better." she took another drink. " say, that ship that's calling for crew this afternoon, what's the story on it and it's captain?"

"Alright." Tawfeek says. "Thank-you." He looks at McKenna to make sure she has no questions.
(In the tavern)
"Transferrance and displacement won't help." Says the bartender calmly. "Seen it too many times in the lost folks that come through here."

(I think he meant Jessica, MJ isn't there anymore)
" You don't quit, do you?" McKenna smirked at the bartender. " So do you know anything about the ship or not? I don't know much about freighters like that."

(Yess, I meant Jessica)
(McKenna)
"Ship? I haven't kept track of the ones docking. And there'S a couple of them that are hiring. Why, you thinking of going out in one? If you are, think hard. Ships like that, even the short haulers, are a close place. Especially emotinally. You can't avoid the people on the ship. They prety much become your job and your life. If the captain doesn't think you're good for that kind of situation, I'ld listen to his advice."
