Grüße, Chief Executive Officer Kelsomagus,
Thank you for OSI’s commitment, your swift delivery response, and the care shown in your words regarding Dr. Lorne and the decision we were forced to make.
Once again, OSI proves why we keep your channel at the top of our contacts list.
Administrative Items – Kept Short and Clean
1) HazMat pricing correction — contract honored
Despite the station-side purchase figure showing 220 SC, M.M.L. will honor the contract term as written: 240 SC per unit.
To close this cleanly for all HazMat already delivered and presently docked, we will issue an additional 20 SC per unit to reconcile each affected delivery to the contracted 240 SC.
Apologies for the confusion. Our finance console recently gained a fresh set of hands—he is learning rapidly that Omicrons do not reward “interpretation.”
2) Remaining 525 HazMat units — acceptance confirmed Resolved. The remaining 525 units will be accepted immediately. Capacity is more than sufficient; the refusal was procedural, not logistical.
Please advise the pilot currently docked that unloading may be completed and departure is cleared once their manifest is signed.
3) Payment routing — per your preference
You noted OSI would most prefer payment routed to the delivering pilots, but left it to my discretion. I am willing to do it either way—direct to pilots or via OSI ops—provided the routing is explicit for our ledgers.
Please reply with either: A) Pilot payment list (pilot name/callsign + account identifier), and we will route accordingly, or B) A single consolidated OSI operations account identifier for settlement, and OSI may distribute internally.
Once unloading is verified, we will process payment immediately on receipt of the routing reference.
I expect our next exchange will be under better circumstances—but I am glad to have OSI on the line either way.
A final note, candid but brief: the decommissioning decision has affected everyone aboard M.M.L. It has made us tired, not careless. These slips will not repeat.
