OPEN AGAIN! - Independent Miners Guild Recruitment channel

[UnWorldly]

I met a fellow in Tau-23 today that said he would vouch for me and try to get me in if I submitted an application, so here it flies:

Name: Edward "Dusty" Reynolds
Age: 30
Citizenship: Liberty



Biography:
I'm from planet Denver, Colorado. As you may know, many of the folks there fell into hard times when the silver fields started drying up. I came from a family that was part of that silver industry, and we got by with a small farm once the workshops started closing.

I studied ship engines, hoping to score a role with Ageria, designing the sector's next fancy new speedy connector. Maybe my grades were too bad or maybe I didn't know the right people, but I didn't make the cut with Ageria and managed to get on board with Deep Space Engineering instead. At DSE I was repairing the large construction ships. I got into mining while at DSE when they found a silver field and were short on miners. I was able to get aboard one of their mining transports as a repairman for a couple missions.

One fateful mission we ran into pirates and couldn't afford to pay their tribute, so we were boarded. We lost a few people including my supervisor's son, which made the bossman angry and got me fired. I used what little money I had managed to save to buy and repair an old freighter and try at running a little ore myself, figuring I could be smart enough not to let myself get boarded and murdered by pirates like the DSE crew had done. While I was out there, I ran into an IMG caravan that invited me along for their trip and I was hooked.



Outline the Independent Miners Guild goals:
The guild aims to treat it's workers fair, to really give them what they are worth. We go out into the deepest parts of space where the larger corporations dare not go, then we all share in that success together. It sounds lovely, assuming everyone pulls their weight.

What can you contribute while inside the Guild ?
I know a thing or two about making stuff work without a full kit of tools and equipment to use. I've also been on a couple helium runs. I'm not the most gifted war pilot though. I'd really like to go on that Niobium run with you folks, it unloads on my home planet and I've been out in deep space long enough to be useful

Which are your personal reasons for joining the Guild ? Also, which IMG Department would you like to be part of ? (you can select only one department)
I'd like to make a living out in space without being at the mercy of a boss's whims. I find the idea of a mining company in remote space that treats it's people right to be very tempting. I would probably be most useful in your exploration&research division.
