I always found the phrase "my comms system is blowing up." a rather over dramatic way to state one is getting a lot of calls. Over the last couple days I am beginning to look at it in a new light. Possibly because my comms unit did in fact short out and die due to overload of traffic yesterday.
I only wish the messages would have some variety. Nearly each and every one can be summed up in the following form:
"Strix sold out to a State Mega-corp?! What the fuck?!?"
And then they want me to explain.
Which brings me to my next frustration. How in the name of God am I supposed to explain something, when I don't know any more than the people asking the question? I didn't even know anything about this goddamn situation until people started to ask me about it. How's that for a fucked up chain of communication? Some bloody desk jockey on the other side of New Eden finds out about major shifts in my corporation before the CEO can be bothered to let me in on the secret. Goddamn man.
Regardless, I am getting really tired of answering concerned messages from people that I respect with: "You already know as much as I do." I can't very well tell them that my CEO has lost his damn mind, nor can I tell them that I have plans in motion. I really hate this political shit-bucket, and if I am forced to play in it for much longer, someone is going to die. Painfully.
On a somewhat brighter note, I finally had a rather animated discussion with Mjalnar a couple days ago. The message of: "It's done. Fucking deal with it." came through loud and clear in the end; so I have decided that I will deal with it. I just doubt he's going to like how I go about dealing with it.
To hell with it. If he doesn't like it he can shove it somewhere uncomfortable.
Then again, I don't see why he has to know at all.
