Mister Kreissman,
Thank you for your application to Bristol C&M. It’s rare that someone of your qualifications and experience places an application with this office and, from what I’ve inquired, your resume is more than accurate. Mr Valenzuela of the Manong spoke highly of you and vouched for your employment, even.
Be assured that your caution towards the alien variety is shared with Bristol C&M - we take no contracts involving such issues, and comply fully with House authorities on matters of exposure.
Please make your way to the nearest Bristol C&M installation for registry of vessels and introductory training. In addition, I would advise you to link The Reliable with our internal communications system for convenience of coordinating that registry.
Thank you for your response, and for extending Bristol’s trust. I appreciate the courtesy—and I’m glad my résumé survived your inquiries intact.
Please convey my thanks to Mr Valenzuela of the Manong as well. I owe him a drink the next time our lanes intersect somewhere that doesn’t serve coolant as “local specialty.”
Understood regarding Bristol’s stance on alien-related matters and compliance with House authorities. You’ll find my caution is practical, not political—and it makes coordination simpler when everyone is on the same page.
I will proceed to the nearest Bristol C&M installation at earliest safe opportunity for vessel registry and introductory training. I’ll also have The Reliable linked to Bristol’s internal communications system prior to arrival, so the registry process doesn’t turn into a bureaucratic scavenger hunt. If there are any specific IFF requirements, encryption handshakes, or preferred comms formats you want used for that link-up, forward the technical packet and my comms officer will implement it.
Lastly, as previously noted: this acceptance should be considered inclusive of my attached crew. The remaining personnel files will follow shortly in a separate transmission for your records.
We’re looking forward to contributing—quietly, professionally, and on time.
Respectfully,
Prof. (on paper) / Capt. (in practice) Rust Kreissman
Command: The Reliable
“Arrive. Deliver. Leave.”
Transmission Ends
Prof. Rust Kreissman
Captain of the Reliable
Tenure optional. Reliability isn’t.
