~~Ready Room~~
 
 
      Rog had been thinking about getting a  personal yeoman for sometime 
now. Seeing Sasha having one, didn't make him feel  jealous or anything, it 
just made him realize what had to be done. So, he called  in the three best 
enlisted personnel from the Command level personnel. They were  PO1 James 
McAlister, PO1 William Staines and PO2 Sandra Gomez.
 
 
   He had decided to interview them separately, starting with  Staines. The 
man was Stanley Staines twin brother, in yet no twins were ever  more 
dissimilar than these twins. William was as efficient as Stanley was  clumsy. Rog 
looked up from the PADD containing William's service record and  said, 
"Well petty officer, so you're Stanley's twin brother eh? Tell me why I  should 
make you my yeoman?"
 
 
  William stood ramrod straight and replied, "Sir, I'm efficient and  know 
what I'm about. While I'm Stanley's twin, I hope you don't hold it against  
me."
 
 
Rog smiled and answered, "I take it Stanley has always been..um."
 
 
William said, "A clumsy oaf is I believe the term you're looking for sir  
and yes I'm afraid he has been that, all his life."
 
Rog nodded and said, "Hmm yes, well I'll let you know petty officer. Please 
 send in PO McAlister."
 
William replied, "Aye sir." After turning around, he silently cursed his  
brother and wondered if he could get away with pushing Stanley out an 
airlock.  As he exited the Ready Room he said, "He wants you in there Jim."
 
  Jim went in and stood at attention. 
 
 
Rog asked him the same question that he had William, "Petty Officer  
McAlister, why should I make you my yeoman?"
 
 
 Jim answered, "Sir, I feel that I can be a real asset to the Command  
team. I'm well organized and could assist you in running a tight ship."
 
 
Rog answered, "I see. Well I'll let you know petty officer. Please send in  
Petty Officer Gomez."
 
 
Jim nodded and left the room, telling Sandra to go on in. After the door  
closed, Jim turned to William and said, "You know she's got the job don't  
you?"
 
William nodded and answered, "With a body like hers, was there any doubt.  
Still with a brother like mine, my chances were slim anyway. Let's grab a 
bite  to eat. Hopefully Stanley won't dump everything on us." Both men laughed 
as they  left for the Mess Hall.
 
 
Sandra stood at attention, which in turn brought attention to her figure.  
Rog said, "Tell me petty officer, why should I make you my yeoman?"
 
 
 Sandra replied, "Sir, I'm a hard worker and before joining Starfleet,  I 
ran the catering department of my family's hotel in Bogota. We were  
consistently rated five stars. I feel I could bring the same efficiency to the  job 
of yeoman."
 
 
  Rog was impressed, in more ways than one. He said, "Very well petty  
officer, I'll let you know one way or the other in say the next day or so. If  
you get the job, it'll be a bit tedious from time to time, but also quite  
exciting and dangerous, given what we'll be up against. Dismissed." Rog spun  
around in his chair and began gazing out at the stars as they streaked by 
the  porthole.
 
 
 Sandra smiled and left the Ready Room, certain she had secured the  
position.
