Biography:
I was born in the year 786 A. S. on Planet Manhattan, grew up there and studied at Madison Institute of Applied Technologies. But I can safely say that my Liberty citizenship is nothing but formal because I became a citizen of Sirius as I spend some time in all five colonies and most of it in the space. After I graduated, I started to work full time in our small private family trading company Stone Bros Ltd/GmbH, where I was helping and gathering experience even before that, at several positions - as a scout, escort, freighter and transport pilot and later captain as well, also as a technician, during some later period I was even company chief of ship maintenance. At times I also worked as a "leased" pilot, captain or technician for some other companies, hired as a temporary workforce for their teams. Over the years I flew and maintained many ships because the company did not have money to buy new ones so it used second-hand ships, buying anything that was at a good condition and available for a low price.
In year 818 I decided to leave the company and join the Rheinland Federal Police. I know it sounds really crazy because of my Liberty origin, especially in that period when war between those houses was raging. But I was accepted, exactly due to the fact that I spent very little time in Liberty after school, and on the other hand quite some contacts and record in Rheinland due to time I spend there while working for the family company, which even had headquarters there at that time (hence the GmbH in the name). I was motivated by seeking vengeance after personal loss caused by local terrorists but also wanted to do something real for the safety of common workers which make their living in space like me, and security situation was not good, especially in the Omegas.
Over the time I made my way to the rank of kommissar, second highest of the regular ranks. Unfortunately, the situation went from bad to worse gradually as the house economy was burdened more and more by the war and most of the resources and ships were allocated to fight Libertonians while inner security was put aside, leaving it mostly to corporations which had resources to protect their ships at least partially. But nobody from the elites really cared about smaller companies or individuals. Depressed by the development, being outnumbered very often, feeling exhausted and failing at my original motives, I decided to quit in year 822 and return back to our family company, which at that time had HQ in the GMG space and was their affiliate, concentrating on the fuel trading and cargo transportation business.
For some time it went quite good, but later the company had bad luck, lost some important contracts and also ships due to pirate and terrorist attacks, what lead to financial troubles, which ended in a forced sale of the assets and termination. Since then, I worked as a temporary pilot and technician at some smaller companies, also trying my luck as a freelancer. But competition is big and income was unstable.
To be honest, that is something you can tolerate when you are young and without family, but I turned forty now and still have very little savings because despite my career was interesting and brought me to all five houses, none of my jobs provided solid income. That is why I decided to try corporate waters finally and go for a well-paid job. After considering which corporation is known to be in a good economic situation and also does not have a reputation of exploiters which give their employes little wages for a lot of hard dangerous work, your name stayed on the list, especially considering the fact that you are not tied to any house which leaves you out of the most wars and local hostilities.
So that is it. I prefer to be honest. Now you know what I want and what I offer. If you are willing to employ me, I think I could start in a position of scout and escort pilot, pilot or captain of Orbital Network Express supply ships as well as pilot or captain of smaller passenger ships to get some experience with the live" cargo" because I have little to none. And later who knows, I may give a try to get to fly some yachts or liners.
