>"I wish I knew sir...I can't figure him out. He seems to have a chip on
his shoulder, so to say, when it comes to Command and Authority figures. I
>explained in the Io briefing he could not leave as per your orders and
this meeting. He took it as an insult."
>Lasiter thought for a good minute before answering. "Well, Admiral, many
of the best that Starfleet has ever produced were rebels in their own
right, and in some >cases down disrespectful of the chain of command. That
does not excuse it, but it may explain it a bit. To be honest he is very
good at what he does, even is he is >difficult to deal with. My
recommendation is to get to know him a bit, but I suspect that he will not
be the join you for dinner type. Give him parameters and give >him
latitude, and I really do think that you will find that he will be a great
asset, if not the biggest pain you have ever met."
>His past assignments were not so close to brass or diplomats, rather
results oriented officers. I doubt they cared about his military discipline
or how he polished >up for inspection. His abilities and the very results
that he was able to deliver made him valuable. Try to reset his views on
things. Here it is not only that you get >results, but that you look the
part. Being stationed at HQ is different than being stationed at a ship
yard far from earth."
"I don't doubt his abilities...but I will try to get through to him. I
renamed Lt Knucklebiter to be his second-in-command in Engineering. I would
like to put in a recommendation for a promotion to match the new title.
They have worked extremely hard since the explosion."
"He is a bit young... Well, that's your call. You won't have any trouble from me on
that. However, you will have to send it through official channels for approval, and
that means going through Starfleet Personnel."
