Sid Goldstein quickly scanned the flyers before him, A few seconds later he looked at the barkeep in the eye.
"Well I am quite experienced with space machinery. Been working at Baltimore for about 8 years. Learnt the ropes there and finally they lay'd me off."
He looked around the bar and then quickly turned his attention to the barkeep.
"Been working on them liners and transports. Gunboats and them cruisers. Heck even worked on a Dreadnought."
He paused a bit and then continued.
"Well if you are looking at some references, you ain't gonna get any from Baltimore" chuckling to himself as he said those words.
"Well if you wanna know my story, it ain't pretty i'm telling you before hand..."
He smiled a bit before continuing his story.
" Well a week before I got lay'd off, i went to this bar in Planet Pittsburgh. Had a couple of drinks with my fellow workers. Suddenly i see this young chick in a dress so fine, it made heads turn. Naturally, i went up to her and started chatting. Ordered a couple of drinks, had a nice time with her. Later on i got her PDA number and promised we'd be in touch."
"2 Days later I got a buzz from her.She wanted to meet up. So naturally I agreed. Well who wouldn't want to meet such a nice gal again eh?"
He scratched his chin a bit before he continued.
"Met in a bar in Planet Manhattan this time. Had a couple of drinks, same chit chat stuff. Things didn't get interesting enough till she ordered a Liberty Viper for both of us."
"Man that stuff was awfully strong. Before i knew it my head was swimming and i couldn't find my feet."
"She helped me to my apartment ... i guess coz thats where i woke up. Anyways tried calling her but she wouldn't pick my calls. What the hell i said to myself and went to work. "
He looked straight into the barkeeps eye "You wont believe what happened"
