TOP TEN DEATH STAR TECHNICAL SUPPORT PET PEEVES

10. emergency calls to reboot garbage compactor controller machines
9. explaining to governor tarkin, for the hundredth time, why there is a
delay between saying "you may fire when ready" and actually firing the main
weapon.
8. taking the blame for default door height parameters.
7. "no, you can't just shoot a panel to lock a blast door!"
6. who do you think gets blamed when a tractor beam fails?
5. frequent complaints that droids seem to wander around without actually
doing anything.
4. damn helmet comlinks.
3. virus in gun turret control software renders them inable to hit targets
smaller than 120 meters.
2. spam messages offering tours of the outer rim for under 200 credits a
day.
1. no one listens when you say the station may have a weakness.

keeping myself occupied whist manning the tech support phones...
