@everyone CS Meeting in 30min
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Since James is dealing woth personal issues, should I jump in as Acting CMO?
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Yea, he's not on Discord so...
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Okay.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
His phone can't support Discord and I believe he said something about his computer didn't, either.... So he's unlikely to join us here any time soon. Even around the grieving...

(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I am here.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson pinned a message to this channel. See all the pins.01/06/2019
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I am in the process of updating the above into the app.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
all the Delays have already been applied, we just need to vote on the others..
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Ok, thanks.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
So, For TIME IN the Stouts are now applicable for a promotion - and at least on Viki's part I'd say her reports (while still 'canned') earns her the promotion.
Opinions?
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
"Canned?"
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
"Read from paper" not off the cuff
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Ah.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Not even paraphrased, as I've asked for. But I can let it slide.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I agree. She's done what we've asked of her, even if a bit cut and dry.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
True.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
So is that unanimous approval for promotion then?
This is JUST for Viki at this moment
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Aye.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Aye
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Okay, Then make it so.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
As of today?
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
correct
hmm lets actually make it effective 2/5
so the date of the next meeting
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Will Do.
Next, we have Ensign Angela Parker, our Astrogation Officer.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Next is Ernest
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Or Earnest...
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
(don't forget poor Ernest) hehe
He's dubiously assigned to Security - and there really hasn't been much for him to DO persay, so his promotion is based solely on TIME IN and participation
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Since I am new to these doscussions, what are we looking for? I understand time served and handling some responsibilities, but what else?
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
-->Security, when was the last meeting Jeff was at phyically?
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
It has been a while.
He does have transportation problems.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Generally it's HAVE they done what was asked of them during their rank.
If we've given them an assignment, did they fulfill it adequately enough
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Okay. So in the case of Ernest, has he needed to do anything security-related?
And with Angela, we have not yet gone on an outing where she was needed to navigate.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Physically on 5/5, he was also on the CS meeting on 9/23
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Have they done anything to make themselves stand out while performing their duties - they kind of stuff..
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Of course, he joined on 4/29
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
We're primarly talking about Ernest at the moment though..
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Yes. But the question goes for all.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
In regards to Ernest, no - we haven't asked him to do anything beyond attend at this point, as we've not had any reason to bring any type of 'security' into the mixes. Which is why his promotion would be based primarily on Time In and Attendance
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Understood.
And the same would go for Angela, Cassy, et al
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Yes
I do pay attention to what people do, even if I do seem to somehow always overlook Paige's contributions.. =/
Anyway
Any objections to Promotion for Ernest?
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
No objection.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
No objections here.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
K, then we'll push his through, also - same date
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Question.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Next is Niss, Cass
Yes?
(A.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Time served in rank... how long is that? It seems that people go from Ensign to Lt.JG very quickly. But beyond that I have no clue. I believe I was promoted last spring. Is there a rule about the timing or is that at Captain's discretion?
And officially, it is Cassy with a y.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Usually 3-6 months is time in
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Ah, good.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
That's the cadet's, Admiral.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
So yes, ensigns climb pretty fast..
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Not angling for a promotion, just curious.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
I know better.. ENSIGN Solak.. hehe -cough-
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
It's 12 months for Ens. to Lt, JG, and from LT, JG to LT
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Lol.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Ah, yea, listen to Nathan, he's had to do all the work for the app..
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Then 24 months from LT to LT CDR, and LT CDR to CDR.
After CDR, only the Admiralty can promote.
Though the command staff can recommend.
The cadets, though, vary depending on age when they join.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Okay, I have it, then. Thanks for the clarification.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
So, back to Cassy...
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
So for Cassy, she only officially joined about 2 months ago. But she put in a lot of civilian work prior to that.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
I don't think anyone would say she hasn't performed admirably in her duties on the Civilian side, and then as Ensign. I'd be willing to grant her a premature promotion if no one objects.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Agreed. And a special commendation to her lomg-suffering husband who has to live with her in the days precsding the meetings.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Ya, I'm not sure why she's up for it. I have her attaining Ensign on 10/29. I don't object due to her contributions, I'm just wondering why the app says she's eligible.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
I don't know, it's your app-baby.. lol
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I know. It's something I have to look at.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
hehe
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I have noticed some strange timing with things. I went from Ensign to LtJG in like 2-3 months. Angela has not been in very long either.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
In the future something we can keep an eye on, but for now. let's let the app lead the way.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
But I will let you take care of that if you feel it is necessary.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
In your case, the app wasn't around. So it really was Captain's prerogative.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Ah.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Generous captain.....
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I've only been working on it for about 2 months.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
That makes sense, then.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
I like keeping my crew happy w/promotions.. Nathan will help me keep from being too handy with handouts...
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
But I like handouts.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
ROFL
So, let's green light Cassy's promotion and delay any word on Angela's until proper time (despite app saying go)
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
In any case, that's an approval for Ensign Niss to be promoted.
Shall we delay for 1 month or longer?
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I would agree about Angela. She has not really been around as much.
But she does have great excitement and energy.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Hm... do the math and delay Angela's until the appropriate time.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
That would be 4/3/19 as her "proper" time.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
And I agree, once her time in is appropriate I think she could easly climb to LTJG without much 'hurt' on anyones part...
Okay, then push it there, it's not that far off..
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
That's all we have. Everyone else is postponed until 2/2
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
---and that's all the promotions. So just to double check.. Stout, Viki to LT, Stout, Ernest to Lt and Niss, Cassy to LTJG
NOW... The somewhat harder task...
It has come to my attention that we have an officer violating (through no intention of his own) our ByLaws.....
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Uh oh.
Hope it isn't me...
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
According to our ByLaws, A person cannot hold a command position, and be absent from meetings more than 3 consecutive meetings in a row.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Actually, quite a few, but we don't have to go into that.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Right, the only ones we watch are the command positions, though.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Ah. I think I see where this is going.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
HEY welcome @Lt. C. Hisa ! Better late than never!(edited)
I'll give you a moment or three to read back.
Okay, back to what I was saying....
(XO of Firelace) Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
I'm up to speed now..
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Lt. Hisa has been absent from physical meetings (due to car and GF's health) since 8/18 and managed to drop in on the CS meeting on 9/18 - but has not been present since.
While we (I) understand the absences, I'm sure Lt. Hisa is aware that in order to make everything flow smooth, the ByLaws should be supported. Opinions?
(XO of Firelace) Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
I know I need to step down as XO because of my lack of participation in the chapter.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
And I want open discussion about this. -> Is this a time, in your opinions, that we need to bypass the bylaws as they were agreed upon, in favor of Hisa's position. or no?
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Regardless of my opinion, it could seem that I was only looking out for my interests. So I respectfully decline to participate in this discussion and will go with whatever everyone else decides.(edited)
1
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Your position is accepted, Capt, thank you.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I think that Lt. Hisa, having been made aware of the issue should decide whether he thinks that he should continue in that position for the good of the ship and crew. He has just stated his thoughts.
But it is ultimately the Captain's decision.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
I think I would agree.. I cherish Hisa as a person, and he knows this.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
As do I.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
He definitely is a great guy.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
I do have another position in mind for him, if he is willing to accept it. One more suited to his personality and skill sets.
(XO of Firelace) Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
But as XO... I stink.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Only to a small degree.. hehe
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
When able, you fulfilled your duties admirably. You did not "stink." Unfortunately, life has gotten in the way.
2
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Lt. Hisa, If you are willing, I'd like to recommend a new assignment for you. One for which you are UNIQUELY qualified.
We are in need a of an official Morale Officer (yes, Jasper is great, but he's limited)
(XO of Firelace) Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
Do I get to put people in the air lock ?? ?
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
brb. Have to get the door.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Only James.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Umm no, lets reserve that right for Larson.. lol
(XO of Firelace) Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
Ok....
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
But, you connect with people, often, and I think you're willingness to do so would help them, and you, in the long run.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Agreee.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
When you are having a bad day you could reach out and ask for a hand up, and lift someone up in turn.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I'm back.
(XO of Firelace) Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
I can do the job.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I agree with the Admiral.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
And it's a job that doesn't 'require' you to not miss meetings.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I agree.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
So you can blow up your car (or replace it) and help Kim get back on her feet without having to worry about 'I'm gonna miss another meeting!"
BUt.. please don't blow up your car...
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Though, don't blow up your car, please.
1
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I assume we will now need to promote a new Exec?
(XO of Firelace) Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
I'm about a tribbles hair away from strapping photos tourpeedow to it and letting it blow.
1
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Correct, Solak. If Lt. Hisa is willing to accept the reassignment.
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
I am willing to take the new assignment.
1
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Thank you Lt. Hisa..
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Thank you for your service.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
You are welcome to stick around for the rest of the meeting.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
You now report to Lt. James Larson. Thank you for your service.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Guill, Who do we have that meets requirements for XO position?
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
James is going to have a field day when he finds out ...
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Isn't he though? heeh
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I'm the next senior officer, but I don't remember all the requirements of the XO. I'm looking them up.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Pulling up the bylaws now
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Guill, you are Captain. You can't be your own Number 1!
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
LOL I'm Captain by rank, but not Captain of the ship...
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I know.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
He is A captain, his is not captain of the ship - there is a difference..
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I was joking.
Human humor escapes me.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
But that has caused me a bit of a laugh...
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Okay, here it is..
XO - hold minimum rank of LTCom in the federation
EXECUTIVE OFFICER (XO - aka First Officer) Shall function as the vice-president of the group having the responsibility of providing a leadership role and shall be required to: Maintain an active membership on the ship and in the Federation®. Have completed the required courses of study provided by the Federation® for authorizing promotion to that rank (Commanding Officer course, Officer Candidate course, and Staff Officer course) Hold the minimum rank of Lieutenant Commander in the Federation® and no more than two ranks below the Commanding Officer Maintain that position until the Commanding Officer calls for a vote for replacement. The procedure to be as set forth in Change of Command (section 1.3). Function as the second in command and Vice President of the ship. Provide a leadership role when and if the CO is unable to do so. Maintain a hard copy log of ship’s meetings and functions. Sit as a member of the Charity Committee. Assist in dispersal of safety and security information to all members of the crew. The Executive Officer reports to the Commanding Officer.
THe only part we haven't held anyone to - because the academy site has been such a shambles - has been the courses requirements....
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
How many on board are of the Lt.Cmdr rank or higher?
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
That's what I thought. I would be the only possible candidate, but I am still not eligible due to being 3 ranks below the Admiral.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
This could be a case of bending the rules a tad.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Josh is Commander. No one else is LTCDR or higher.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Indeed - not something we're stranger to - though I'd like to stick to our bylaws as much as possible.....
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
And also, do you have the ability and desire to fulfill the role?
And... Josh?
Who?
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Josh also doesn't attend meeting regularly enough. He'd be stripped of the position almost as soon as he was given it..
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Josh Wilson, The Admiral's husband.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Ah.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Very true.
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
Cpt. Guill would be the ship's best bet as XO.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Agreed, if he feels he wants to and can.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I feel that I could perform the duties as described by our bylaws.
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
I still think he should have been XO from the start....

1
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Unfortunately, I was still going through a few things at that time. I do believe I have that part handled now.(edited)
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
All considerations on the table, I hear Guill reassigned to Executive Officer. All agreed? -Guill please withhold your vote-
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Aye.
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
You have a better understanding of the day to day precegers that I was still trying to under stand.
(CoO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Thanks.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
K, with that we now need to look for a CoO, yes?
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Yes. Minimum rank is LT
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
CHIEF OPERATIONS OFFICER (COO) Maintain an active membership on the ship and in the Federation®. Have completed the required courses of study provided by the Federation® for authorizing promotion to that rank (Commanding Officer course, Officer Candidate course, and Staff Officer course) Hold the minimum rank of Lieutenant in the Federation® and no more than one rank below the Executive Officer Maintain that position until the Commanding Officer calls for a vote for replacement. The procedure to be as set forth in Change of Command (section 1.3). Function as the third in command and provide a leadership role when and if the CO and XO are unable to do so. Serve as the ship’s Chief Financial Officer, having the responsibility of providing an accurate record of all funds. The Operation Officer reports to the Executive Officer.
This position does not need to be immediately filled - but considerations will be taken now
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
Plus.... with my short attention span, it made it hard for me to sit still and learn my position .......... SQUIRL !!!
1
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I know it says it above, but we need to be able to trust them with the ship's money.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I know I am slightly too low in rank for that, but I feel I could adequately handle the responsibilities.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
-listening/reading-(edited)
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I agree. I do not have a better feeling for almost anyone else in that regards.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I will be a full Lieutenant soon.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
I have no objections.
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I am currently only Ship's Counselor and assistant CMO, so I can easily switch over. And my uniform is already red.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Weren't you saying you wanted to go Sciences though?
-that that it would stop you either way-
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I am fine with Command as well.

(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Capt Guill, when is the date that Solak would be promoted, out of curiousity?
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
5/22
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Is that 2022??
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
This year.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
so 5/19
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
5/22/19
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
ah okay..
(a.CMO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Better not be, lol
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Wow.. I about had a heart attack there.. way to start the new assignment.. lol
-afk brb
back
Okay, so 5 months, and Solak would be properly ranked.... I think we can 'wiggle' that bylaw there..
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I agree.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
So, let's give him that assignment. I do ask that Guill continue to work on the App as before, but transfer all other projects to directly affecting the App to our new CoO, Solak.
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Will do. I will hand over the till and all records of the Treasury to LTJG Slovak at the next meeting.
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I will endeavor to do well.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
And that is all I ever ask.
-this is gonna make for quite the MCAR report.. sigh.. lol
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Nathan, would you please contact me later with info re: Day to Day duties?
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
-Also we need to make sure Cassy has all the contact info for the crew (as we have it on record) so she can do her duties.
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Do we want to remove him from Recruitment Officer, Ship Counselor, and Assistant CMO?
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Perhaps we can introduce them to the App?
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I believe the App is just about ready for that.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Hmm yes. CoO will be handful enough, if he does it right, I think... Or, leave him on RO - but he can drop the ACMO
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I can still be Counselor.
But not ACMO
RO was there because I work the table at a few conventions.
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
So, I have him as COO, RO, & SC. App doesn't show multiple assignments, but I may be able to fix that.
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
I'm interested to see this app.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Yea, with a ship with crew filling multiple roles, that might be handy..
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I think you caught a glimpse of it at the December meeting. You asked if it was a website. I will definitely invite you and show you how to work it. It is a PowerApps app and works on Android or Apple. Unfortunately, I have to have separate apps for phone and tablet, but the tablet version works on the computer as well.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Okay, I think that pretty well covers all the important assignments..
I know we still have assignments that could be filled - and some crew that could BE assigned..
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Yes, the only open assignment left is Cadet Commander and that is an additional staff position.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Hmm... Do we know anyone that would be able to do that job?
Must maintain an active membership on the ship and in the Federation®. Hold the minimum rank of Lieutenant, Junior Grade in the Federation® Maintain that position until the Commanding Officer calls for a vote for replacement. The procedure to be as set forth in Change of Command (section 1.3). Provides supervision and organization of cadets during meeting and away missions. The Cadet Commander reports to the Ship's Counselor.
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Though, technically, we should be asking others to be stepping down due to participation rates.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Who are we missing? Greg I know is holding a position,..
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
:coughJEFFcough:
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Jeff..ff...fa.....?
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Meacham.
I will talknto him and see if he plans to renew his membership.
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Meacham, Chief Tactical; Baxter, Chief Engineer; Falcone, Quartermaster
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
Dun Ham....
.com
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
THANK YOU LB... lol
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Peanut needs to go to sleep...
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
LOL.....
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Yea, lets find out what his intentions are by way of his membership - as he has not been around (transportation aside, he has Discord!) and go from there...
I don't WANT to strip people of positions if they really intend to do the job - but LB and I had talked about his position a few times, so while I didn't want to reassign him, we both already knew he was struggling. Jeff, I'm uncertain of.
I know he's excited (or was) to be part of the group - but I've heard little from him lately (last I think I saw he was flying somewhere for a family bd) and not really interacting even on FB...
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I'm okay leaving him in Security.
But that leaves Carrie and Charlies.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Carrie is inactive as is Charles
It does not inconvience them to leave him in Security.
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
We still have them on the roster though. I know we have a lot of people that need to renew, and I have not removed them.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Well, Mike and Carrie renewed last year. They're memberships haven't come up this year... They just won't/can't make the drive up the hill.
Charles has been on medical leave (and had renewed last year)
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I don't have those records. Doesn't mean you're incorrect, due to Command's efforts.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
I'll look and have Mark verify memberships.. I know he doesn't have the medical leave...
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Thanks.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
There are some things I keep track of that he doesnt'... like medical leaves. -shakes head- though you'd think he would...
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
That aside, we currently have 36 people onboard including cadets and civilians.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
jimmeny.. we should have fuller meetings then. lol
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
ya' think? LOL
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
I know I asked for a few names to be dropped due to lack of communications from them.. I know I've forwarded most of those to you, Guill.
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I've done as ordered. Should be accurate.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
That is all I ask.
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Let me know if there is anything I can do on my end.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
As we can. There will be a bunch of shuffling and 'learning the ropes' sessions for a bit with people in new seats.. Shouldn't be too bad, as most already know or are doing their jobs.
With that I think that about wraps up what needs managing for the month. MCAR has already been filed, so you won't need to do that Guill. I'll forward it to you so you can see what it is, and how I fill it out....
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Thank you, all.
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Thanks. I've looked at it before, just never taken the reigns.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Next CS meeting should be held before the next monthly..
Next monthly is set for Feb 9? was that what we decided yesterday?
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
So, have a CS meeting on the 3rd?
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
-headdesk- Lily just suggested I check the video feed for the date of the next meeting... ugh
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
She does have a point, Though hopefully Solak might know.
(CoO of Firelace) LTJG Solak01/06/2019
Yes, the 9th.
The day before Opening Day for my League. I remember that part.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
k.
So next CS meeting should be the 8th at least...
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I'm fine with the 8th, or 9th.
Oops, scratch that.
8th, 3rd, or 2nd.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Okay, so let's plan for the 8th, (I'd like to have the CS meetings the night before monthly meetings, so that promotions and such don't get lost)
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
Sounds Good.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Okay, putting the dates on the calendars now...
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
One question. Since the meeting is on the 9th. Would you rather the new promotions take place on that day instead of the 5th?
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
....Yea, would probably make more sense....
And on that note, I ask for a motion to adjourn the meeting...
(XO of Firelace) Cpt N.Guill01/06/2019
I've moved the dates in SharePoint.
1
I'll motion for adjournment.
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
Do I hear a second?
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
All agreed?
Lt. C. Hisa01/06/2019
(CO of Firelace) R.Adm R.Wilson01/06/2019
I'll assume none opposed.. Meeting adjourned.
