Garnascus Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Reporting Personnel: Thaumiel Rank of Reporting Personnel: Research Director Personnel Involved: Jack sayek, Captain. VICE, Borg, Time of Incident: The whole shift Location of Incident: Science department, telescience lab. Nature of Incident: [X]Workplace Hazard X[]Accident/Injury []Destruction of Property [X]Neglect of Duty []Harassment []Assault [X]Misconduct [X]Other Abuse of authority and overriding of professionals(Place an x in the box that applies. If other, replace line and specify.) Overview of the Incident: We received Correspondence from central command that the spiders on board our station may be intelligent, and if possible to capture one alive. As the research director at the time i of course jumped at the chance to study an anomalous organism. The first strike against the captain began when i heard over the Radio that security had been injured severely while dealing with an army of spiders breeding in engineering. I went to help carry wounded to medical bay and when i reached the scanners i found the captain there, injured as well. I find it questionable as to why the captain was anywhere NEAR engineering and possibly battling spiders. his duty is to command the forces on account of no HoS and not to jump into the fray. Regardless, Security DID actually manage to capture me a live specimen. It was brought into the telescience lab on account of a force field being setup that would easily contain the spider. I had only just begun the first of many experiments to determine its intelligence, strengths, weaknesses and other attributes in accordance with company policy. The captain informs me over command radio that he is coming to see the captured subject. The captain arrives and claims to me "i think it can understand us doctor" keep in mind i had already arrived at this hypothesis as it did regard me when i pressed it with certain auditory cues but i hadnt yet gathered enough data to be sure and the captain had only seen the spider make a few gestures. The captain then decides he is "going in to speak with it" and decides to interrupt my experiment and ignore my protests. he places his baton on the table and tells the spider that he is no threat. The captain was accompanied by VICE a security borg and attempted in many ways to tell the spider "we mean no harm" and that "we have killed man of your people" "i am sorry". keep in mind the spider only hissed, chattered and made vague head movements in response. NOTHING to conclusively prove it was intelligent. only that it had some ability to determine threats and that it wouldnt be able to take down the borg. Even more absurd the captain then decided his intuition was once again far better than the research professionals and that this spider "is their leader". keep in mind there was ZERO objective data to support this as my experiments where rudely interrupted. I asked the captain many times to leave the area and allow me to continue and he told me to "keep quiet im making progress" This captain has rudely overstepped his bounds believing he has a right to "converse" with any intelligent life forms when my experiments hadnt even yet determined if it wasnt dangerous. again keep in mind that our security force was CRIPPLED by these creatures. Did you report it to a Head of Staff or IAA? If so, who?: Negative, this was discussed over command channel and i sent a fax to the odin but received no response. Additional notes: This captain apparently cannot keep calm NOT being the center of attention, he is unwilling to let his staff do their jobs and utilize their given capabilities, he has recklessly charged into hugely dangerous situations TWICE and given no heed for his own safety nor his duty to the crew. he has regarded his own deduction and intuition FAR above the professionals in this area and he has rudely overstepped my authority and abused his own.
