Kapitan Johannes Krieger scowled in the waiting room. Already half an hour spent waiting to speak with the Tech rep on the refit of his ship, the woman he was waiting for wasn't out of her previous meeting yet.
Half an hour.  This is ridiculous. He stood up, tugged down on his class B tunic, and strode right past the receptionist without a word, planting a hand on the door of the office, and shoving.
"Sir! You can't do that!!"
It opened, revealing an empty desk, in an unoccupied office.
"Another meeting, huh?"  he scowled, "We are done here.", he turned to leave.
"Sir, you can resched-"
"No, you can go ****** yourselves." he said coldly, "We're done.  You will be hearing from the Inspector General's department."
Ninety days delay, ninety days of fruitless p-mail exchanges and he'd come down here to try and work with them in person since indirect contact wasn't working, and this?
Unacceptable.
As he walked, he pulled out his comm unit, and punched in his XO's unit.  "Lois, it's a bust."
"You didn't get them to adjust the schedule?"
"Their rep wasn't even on the ****** site. I just spent half an hour waiting outside of an empty office!" he growled, "Get the Chief Engineer and his people to the dock. We are done waiting for the prime contractors, we will do the work ourselves!"<br>
