Hero Ferrari Here!

We have some openings in the R&D lab at Nevermore Terrace, specifically testers who are willing to put their best foot (actually both of them) forward and leap (literally) into the unknown. Most of our testers do come back down again (some at surprising velocity).

You'll be paid a pittance, worked to the bone, and unceremoniously dumped if (when) any injuries occur. Welcome to the job market in 3311 where there's billions more just like you!

o7 Commanders!
Marsha Hicks is one of the engineers from the Colonia region who decided to leave the Core Systems after the death of her daughter at the hands of the Thargoids… and to escape her criminal past. She has been in countless prisons, and her files are probably bigger than my list of crimes against the Federation. 😅

She's not a very social person, and from what I've heard, she prefers to work in silence. But things change, and even she has to recruit some helpers to continue her work as an engineer.

If you are an introvert who enjoys programming and modifying limpets, then maybe it's the perfect job for you!

Hi AlvarZ4, I like what you're going for with this, but the text is quite hard to read against the background. If you'd like to win a prize, I suggest editing it to make it a bit clearer

Alex Sinclair I improved the announcement with your suggestions, I think it is more readable this time and it also looks nicer.

I finally got the inspiration to submit this ad after seeing this post from Elon:

Since my favorite Elite Dangerous engineer is Felicity Farseer, I made her version of the post searching for new staff:

Tod "The Blaster" McQuinn: The Art of Perfected Destruction

In a universe where the line between life and death is razor-thin, the right weapons aren’t a luxury—they’re a necessity. And if there’s anyone who knows how to turn a ship into a lethal combat machine, it’s Tod "The Blaster" McQuinn.

I always choose Tod because his work doesn’t just enhance weapons—it redefines what a ship is capable of. His expertise in multicannons and railguns makes them precision tools of destruction, perfect for both PVE and PVP. Whether I’m tearing through pirates or facing off against elite opponents, his modifications ensure that every shot counts.

On top of that, compared to other engineers, unlocking McQuinn is quick and relatively easy, making him an essential choice for any commander looking to optimize their ship without getting bogged down in endless requirements.

Tod "The Blaster" McQuinn doesn’t just upgrade weapons—he builds victories.

Thanks for reading this justabout

Hey lionriver, thanks for entering this reward. Our team is about to look at submissions for this reward, and, before they do so, I wanted to ask if you'd used ChatGPT or other generative AI software to create the image or text? The text appears to score highly on our AI checker so I thought I'd ask.

The lyrics are from a photo site I use called Pixlr. I used it to find the lyrics that best fit my taste, and I looked up what the game says about them, and I wrote them down.

I always write the same text to avoid misinterpretation or something like that.

I'll leave you a receipt, I didn't use artificial intelligence.
