/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I call foul: the Bajoran day (and DS9’s schedule) is based on a 26-hour day, so a 3-to-4-shift rotation would be an easier switch.
Edit: It makes more sense, anyway. 4 6-hour shifts, with a 30 min meal break each rather than 3 8-hour shifts with a ~50 minute break.
26, 24. 6-1/2 vs 6 hours. Mild change and still more efficient.
See my edit, but, yeah.
It took me decades to realize that, in Chain of Command, Riker was the one in the wrong. Jelico may have been a bit… difficult here and there, but Riker was being an insubordinate child.
Riker came from Alaska and his dad seemed like the 24th century equivalent of a conservative Republican, so maybe he valued the stupid capitalist Protestant work ethic that has no place in a post-scarcity society?
Both Riker and his dad came from Socialist Space Utopia capital: Earth. They’re a couple of impossibly-privileged people slap-fighting over hardly anything. There are worse things than father-son discord… and few things older.
I was being facetious.
You want some overlap, that way if theres something going on, you can swap easier. And its not a big deal if someone is five minutes late.
But help me out with the size of the roster. Say you have 25 people needed to operate 25 stations. 3 shifts so you have 75 people on your ship.
Then you go to 4 shifts without stopping at a start base to pick up extra 25 people. And you have to put 1/3 of your crew in double shifts, or you spread it out so everyone picks up an extra shift 1/3 of the time. And in average everyone works as much as before.
Redundancy is efficiency. No ship would operate with exactly 75 people to cover 25 stations in three shift. Either some of those stations are redundant, or you have more than 75 people. Otherwise, one illness or injury would bring down the whole system.
A switch to shorter shifts would reduce redundancy on each shift, but each worker would get more rest and be less likely to burnout or get sick, even if they have to pick up occasional double shifts until they can take on more crew.
Ok kinda makes sense
Except for O Brian that keeps doing radical sports and injuring his elbow. Or Jadzia and Worfs "training" program every day like rabbits.
