Why I Love Engineers

One of my customers has been ignoring my emails today, which is very out of character. It's not anything particularly urgent, but I decided to follow up with a phone call

I think it might be fun to do a fic where Scotty (or even Bones) was unilaterally provided with this new-fangled engine-maintaining/patient-treating metal monstrosity by the Starfleet Powers That Be. He doesn't trust it with engines/patients, but surely it's good for something? :-) Walking still? Bourbon dispenser? Dragger of reluctant captains down to sickbay for their inoculations? I can imagine Scotty having it take over some boring task normally assigned to the lowliest of lowly junior technicians (casting new plastic screw-head protectors or something) so he can teach them how to hotwire a spaceship fine-tune plasma injectors or keep your warp core intermix chamber from exploding while you attempt to coax your warp five spacecraft to warp seven trace and repair faults in a food machine that insists on serving chicken cacciatore when you ask for haggis.

Now if they can program BeerBot to clean the litter box, my life is complete.

All Hail BeerBot!

Sometimes I still regret not becoming an engineer.

LOL - that's great!

There is totally a story there! You should write it!

I vote yes to fic! :D

And engineers are awesome... I kinda want to adopt one.
