A Day in the Life of Jaim Gaidin, Captain of Recruits

Author: Aleita Taviah, April 2008

As the sun rises in the fair land of Michigan, the dashing Captain of Recruits, Jaim al`Bearach is ready to start his day.

The sun barely up in the sky The Captain is already out of bed and logging onto his computer and beginning his working day. As one of the lucky few who work from home The Captain spends his working day in front of his computer. Once he has dealt with his thousands of emails from adoring fans he recommences work on his global project in his day job as an information analyst.

By the time the sun has past its highest point The Captain is ready for some down time. However, a Captain's work is never done with his free moments taken up with the start of his Tower day. Beginning with a scan of the boards he then moves on to answering his fan mail (PM's this time), dealing with the applications of his young recruits and keeping a watchful eye on the Barracks. For the most part his Tower day is straight forward unless he has a new recruit blossoming onto the stage or a current one who, having strayed to the wrong side of the tracks, requires punishment. While The Captain is strong and just, he does come up with some silly and more serious punishments, such as writing out the bylaw the recruit broke 25 different ways.

After turning his attentions to his duties in the admin forums he finally has some time for a little fun of his own. Whether this is relaxing, and making fun posts for the enjoyment of others, or playing the infamous World of Warcraft he still finds time to occasionally do some housework such as doing the laundry or starting to cook dinner, just in time for the return of his beautiful wife.

The Captain was blessed with a wonderful lady to be by his side, Lireina t'al`Bearach. On her return to her kingdom The Captain and his first lady will dine together followed by some games, just relaxing in each others company or post stalking each other on the boards.

With the moon rising in the night sky it is time for the Captain to hang up his cloak and kilt for another day and head to bed. However, as a warning to all young recruits, if The Captain does not get his sleep the recruit awaiting punishment in the morning may get more than just a day mucking out the stables....

And so ends a day in the life of Jaim "The Captain" al`Bearach.
