No need to pester everyone who passes through the system like some kind of sentient spam email. If they don't need fuel they can be on their way.

You decide against pinging the vessel, and return to your studies.

1236USY.3d/1m.1815h

Your wetware chip notifies you that your resting period (1915-0115) is due to begin in an hour.

1236USY.3d/1m.1915h

You yawn partially artificially as the wetware chip notifies you:

[SLEEP PERIOD HAS BEGUN. SEEK A PREFERABLY COMFORTABLE PLACE TO SLUMBER UNTIL 0115 TOMORROW. NEGLIGENCE TO THIS MIGHT CAUSE YOUR ORGANIC COMPONENTS TO BECOME INEFFICIENT.]

Stretching at little in your seat, you look how far you are into reading. It seems you're about 90% done with SRC Life Support Manuals.

Could one hour more of reading or so be pushing it?

A) Nah, we can crunch this in one day!
B) The datapad isn't going anywhere, time for sleep!

B - Our pathetic sample size indicates that we'll get interrupted at some point,so beat take the sleep whilst we can

Once we've been here a while perhaps we'll discover a pattern of quiet and busy periods we can align our sleep schedule with.

You decide to call it a night.

You put the datapad into storage, turn off the music and the neons, swipe the counter clean, and head for your quarters.

You set up the timer on the tank bed and hop in.

As the tank bed tilts and releases slumberosols, you fall asleep.



Congratulations! Bartender Arnold earned 833 Credits today! His monthly total so far is 2330 Credits!

A new day at Galactic Refueling Otupost 254831 begins...



1236USY.4d/1m.0009h

BEEP-BEEP
BEEP-BEEP
BEEP-BEEP

The tank bed wakes you up as the sensors alarm is routed into it.

Groggily, you leave the machine, and shuffle towards the command center to check the sensors. You wish your sleep pod had internal connection to the center...

Quote
Sensors Station Alert! IFF beacon translation in progress...

Done!

"Most Fortunate Occurence", Freedom-class Cargo Barge, approaching from direction of Eta Coridani Jump Gate.

Standard docking and refueling request received.

Fuel Pump assigned: #8 (authority: Automated Refueling AI)

Estimated arrival time: 23 minutes.

Standing in front of the console, you ponder your options...

A) Hail them with an offer for drinks and fun!
B) Nope, I'm going back to bed, the AI can handle the fuel.

Is it time we start establishing some semblance of a work-life [B]alance? Today was a full day, after all.

A. Its a barge, and that means lots of workers for loading and offloading.

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.
