Pre Session 0

Dear diary,
 
I'm finally doing it! I'm off to make a name for myself! Pops always said if I put in enough elbow grease and sweat I'd rise through the ranks. This is my first big assignment! I've never been allowed take a shipment alone before. Individual orders sure, but this is the BIG ONE! Of course, I'm not really alone, I've got MAT. I couldn't ask for a better companion. Its funny, the longer he's online the more I'm certain of it, he really is starting to develop a personality. To be honest, I'm kinda relieved about that. Maybe I'll feel less crazy chatting to him all the time? Don't get me wrong, me and the boys love talking tinker, but most of the women folk prefer to raise the kiddos or do more intricate work. They do all the pretty custom jobs, the intricate gun handles, the ladies bracelets that secretly hide an electric zap. Although some are the opposite. Real grease monkeys. We've got a ton of female mechanics and choppers. No so many in the gun department. Not really sure why.
 
Of course everyone has their own projects, so there isn't much time to chat anyway. Plus, most of the boys would rather be making something and I get stuck doing counter duty at the shop a lot. They all like to joke that I'm "built for it". I know what that means! I'm 52 for goodness sake and a lot of our clients are men, the lot of them are about as subtle as a wrecking ball at 6am on a quiet weekstag . Boys!
 
Well, wish me luck!
