Operations. Your Kobayashi Maru suits it well.

The whole way through I kept thinking operations with a touch of exploratory science. For me it's your strengths that just push operations to me.

I tend to be a big defender of Reboot!Uhura, but I can see where you're coming from in Q6. The problem with her is that as the only female character in the main ensemble, she has to be everything to everyone (cue "I'm every woman, it's all in meeeeeee") She has to be the love interest, the career woman, the geek chick, the ass-kicking chick, basically every female trope rolled into one, which is why she comes off as a Mary Sue :( I choose not to hold it against her just because the movie was written by fanboys, and fanboys notoriously can't write women, but I do agree with you on that point.

*cough* Anyway, I definitely get an Operations vibe from this app--not the hardcore engineer/security type, but a friendly, fair, hardworking Harry Kim type ;D

I can definitely see where the people voting for Operations and Exploratory Sciences are coming from, but I'm actually getting more of a Medical vibe from you. I definitely get the picture that you'd make a very good ship's counselor--you're a good listener, you empathize well with others, you're patient and loyal and caring and friendly and persistent(which means you'd work hard to ensure your patients would do well, never giving up on them, while also being very approachable and easy to establish a rapport with). A lot of those traits would also serve you well in Operations, so if you wind up there, I think it would also be a very mucually beneficial fit!

I think I'll have to go with Operations. I can see the Medical in you that people have mentioned (though not too much of the Sciences, that was a surprise!), but I think your prioritization of friendships above all else - along with your abilities as a diplomat - would serve you well there.
