This is a CNS Special Report coming from Hamburg. Republican Shipping has released an announcement regarding the future of RepEx and other parts of the company
*A tallish man with bleached blond hair addresses the camera.*
As you may know RepEx has come under the direct management of Republican Shipping again. After Mr. Cummings' arrest we appointed our own CEO but he has been inefficient to say the least. Constantly taking vacations and leaving paperwork mounting on his desk. To correct that problem we have replaced him and put RepEx directly under control of Michael Richter. Michael Richter is the former Vice President of Marketing for Daumenn and will now serve as the new CEO. In his first week on the job Herr Richter has announced some sweeping changes such as: RepEx-Black Talon and RepEx-Black Market are being dissolved and re-incorporated into Republican Shipping. Black Market's weapons stocks are being liquidated and more details on that will be reveled soon. All Black Talon pilots are going to be released from active duty. Republican Shipping will allow you to keep any ships, weapons, and equipment you have and will give you a 15mil severance bonus and RepEx will pay for any Intergalactic Registry changes that must be done on your ship. To recieve this bonus you must contact Republican Headquarters through a secure channel within 168 hours. The address code is mwerte. Herr Richter wishes to apologize to all Black Talon pilots for the inefficiency in which this whole matter was handled and thanks you for your time and patience. If you need a reference for another job do not hesitate to use Republican Shipping. Now here are some of the new policies Herr Richter has put into place.
Current policies for RepEx personal.
1.Every new employee receives a starting bonus with the opportunity for a loan to finance your new trade vessel. This bonus and loan MUST go toward the purchase of a Whale or other trading vessel unless permission is given from the Board of Directors or the CEO saying otherwise.
2.Profit is our goal.
3.Every standard month each employee is to collect and deliver 10million credits to HeadQuarters. This money is from our customers and pays us for the services we provide. This money translates into bounties, support for new employees, and the upkeep of any long-term escort contracts we have. Employees who took the optional loan are asked to pay 10mil per month minimum to pay off their loan. Of course, you can pay off the loan early.
4.The Board of Directors wishes to ensure the safety of its ships and employees, therefore it is advisable to pay off a pirate if you are caught by them, we can always have them hunted down and killed later, but YOU are an invaluable resource not as easily replaced as your ship. However, if a pirate is demanding an exorbitant amount let the Sirius gods know, they don't take terrorist acts kindly.
5.Be Profitable!
6.If you are caught by local authorities with contraband the Board of Directors will deny giving you permission and will impose a heavy fine on you, the second time it happens you will be dismissed from the company. Do not get caught.
7.Hiring an escort is advisable, pirates are greedy and like to damage ships even if we pay them off.
8.Profit is the ultimate goal.
9.Try to form convoys even with non RepEx shippers, a single Adv Train can't hold off a pirate, 3 can.
10.Please try to make at least 1 report per month to the Board of Directors (message dump) stating how your ship is running and any relevant information such as trusted escorts, pirate ambush spots, new trade routes, ect.
11.Recruitment is important, if you see someone new tell them about all we have to offer:
- starting bonus.
- whole weight of Republican Shipping should someone get pirated.
- long term stability.
- The opportunity to work for the most profitable company in Sirius.
- have bases everywhere in Sirius, you can work from any location, can control your shipping from anywhere.
- We are always hiring, nobody will be turned away.
