Transmitting file: Borderworlds Exports application form 8209-2727
- What is your full name:
James Barnes
- Where do you live:
On my ship. (I was born on Cambridge)
- Where was your last place of employment? What experience do you have:
I'm self employed, started my own business after getting made redundant from Thinking Software AI (an IT firm) on Cambridge and my wife leaving me. I took what was left from the sale of the house and bought a Pelican I thought it would provide enough protection to ship gold ore, boy was I wrong. So I did some trading and made a few bob running helium in Pennsylvania and then bought a Gull; went on to shipping alloys, but it's getting hard to get trade through on you own now with all these dam pirates about, so I thought I'd apply for Bowex contract so I can travel in convoy and get some protection!
- To what division are you applying:
Shipping division
- Do you already own a ship? If so, what kind:
I have a CT-39X Albatross Civilian Heavy Transport
- If you are applying for the Shipping division, what would you name your ship? Why:
I'd name my ship the Torside; it's a beautiful place up in the hills where my father's ashes were scattered.
- Why are you interested in working for Border World Exports:
As I said above I thought I'd apply for Bowex contract so I can travel in convoy and get some protection! Bowex are the oldest shipping company in Sirus they have good connections with Sirus companies and have the contract to supply the Bretonian Armed Forces, my son and nephew are in the BAF and are stationed on the McDuff so it would enable me to go up there and visit them if I got a supply run. Also you help out the BMM with gold ore shipments, which I believe carry good bonuses and I could do with the money so I can buy a bigger ship for when my lad gets out of the service and then he can join me in the family business.
-Tell us about yourselves, what are you dislikeskes etc (minimum of 100 words):
I'm 43 years old (dob 27th August 776 AS), born in Ashtonville, Planet Cambridge. I have 2 brothers, both musicians and an ex.Wife and 2 children. My daughter is a Marketing Exc. For Cryer Pharmaceuticaks and my son is an Ensign in the BAF. Therefore I hate the Kusari, but I like Geisha girls! I love music, but I gave up playing when I went into IT, but that still doesn't stop me playing the old Earth 20thC great classic 'Magic Carpet Ride' by Steppen Wolf! My favourite food is mixed grill, but that doesn't make me a fatty as I do like Chicken salads as well. I don't like sprouts, pirates, The Spice Girls, or Lane Hackers and Trade Lane jumpers!
Thanks for your time, I hope we can work together I'll take a 3 month contract on probation so you don't have to commit to long term contract immediately.
