Running missions for the Gallente is perhaps one of the more boring endeavors I have ever undertaken. In the old days of Red Cabal I ran a combat crew, we fought things, we defended mining ops and hired out to corps who needed a bit more firepower. Now I mainly do work for the Gallente, doing my part to improve Endland’s federation standing and managing the day to day affairs of the corporate trade account. It’s a desk job, and while I’m not too happy about it, it has been a great help in replenishing my accounts.

But I hear we are recruiting, and that makes me happy. Endland’s recruiting policy has always been to recruit fresh out of the academy. It’s a policy that served the corp well for a long time, and I can see the advantages. Loyalty is the most important quality of an employee, and in my own corporate endeavors I’ve found that training someone from an academy recruit to a veteran combat pilot is a great way to foster loyalty. The downside, of course, is that such recruits are long-term investments.

So now, in addition to my responsibilities as trade director, I’ve been given the dubious honor of being chief of security. Currently that means I have control over an under-stocked combat hangar and can give orders to myself. If recruitment goes well, however, it’ll mean that I’ll be training a fresh wing of combat pilots to protect corporate assets, make trouble in our local neighborhood and generally populate low-sec Gallente space with wrecks. Good times all around.
