Work Text:
The new system crashed again, and Claire sighed. This latest update was meant to have been just a few minor fixes, but there was definitely something wrong. This was the third time it had fallen over in two days. She should ring the tech support team, but she needed some coffee first. Unfortunately, the coffee station in the hall had run out of sugar, as had the one on the far side of the floor, so she had to go up to the level above to get any.
By then she really needed to rant at someone else and get it out of her system so she could be polite to whomever she got on the phone from tech support. It wasn't their fault one of the coders had messed up. When the switchboard told her that they couldn't possibly put her through, because all the levels below 20 were sealed off and the comms were off, it didn't exactly help her mood.
When all the fuss was over, she finally got the computer fixed. It was just in time for Janet to arrive with a strange object...a phase gun. (How was she supposed to file that?). Meanwhile, Janet was complaining about the bits left on the infirmary floor, which Claire was meant to figure out how to collect so she could archive them somewhere as well. Storing invisible remains? All in a day's work, apparently.
"Yes, I know," Janet said, "This place is crazy."
Claire sighed.
