Josh just got off duty, after pulling a double shift. Normally he would have just striped down and go to bed, but he was still full of energy.

On the wall of his quarters was a full-scale diagram of the bridge’s helm station. He walked over to the diagram and looked at it. He had already memorized the control’s and he could pilot the ship blind fold. But now he was trying to trace the main power circuits that powered the helm. In case of a power failure, he wanted to be able to tap into another power source. He starred at the diagram for an hour, and with his finger, traced every circuit to its power source, all 100 of them.

He was going to check with engineering, but he thought he found a circuit he could tap into.

When he was done with that, he moved to his computer. He had programmed a helm situation scenario. He instructed the computer to create random scenarios for him..this was practice for him…he wanted to get better.

Josh had the computer run for 4 hours, throwing all possible scenarios at him.

A couple he failed…destroying the ship..but most of them he saved the ship.

Exhausted after this, he dragged himself to his bed, stripped down and crawl into bed.
