Vennett? Are you in the middle of anything particularly pressing?
[She's gotten up and is gesturing him over to her terminal, since she doesn't have printout permission.]
So you have assigned me two main tasks. Type one being repeat mission identification, type two being drop point creation. The results for the latter type have been decent, but my progress on the former...
[She brings up a spreadsheet in Exsiliumcel... a long one, containing many recent missions. After a few clicks it's sorted by country, then city - and there's a frequency column with "1" as the value in almost every row.]
The problem is that the transports keep choosing different locations... whether out of personal desire and familiarity, the nature of the supplies in question, or the rare case that they're actually changing discrete historical events. I've gotten some progress on techniques for New York City, but that's one of the only sufficiently popular locations.
[Vennett shook his head. Nothing that couldn't wait. The larger missions had already been programmed in first thing that morning. He drifted over at her beckoning, leaning against the side of her desk as she brings up the spreadsheet.]
Las Vegas is fair t'popular too.
[But still, he got her point.] Y'lookin' for somethin' more involved to do?
[She shrugged.] I was wondering if alternatively you might want me to look into encouraging my peers to select repeat locations more often, but if you have other work I'd love to do it.
