      The most unrealistic part of Star Trek is how much time they seem to have in a day.

        When you don’t have a bullshit job to do, I can imagine personal times being more available than 21st century.

          And that’s with a three shift rotation. Imagine if Jelico got his way with a four shift rotation, giving everyone a six hour work day.

            Some viewers : Jellico is an asshole!
            Jellico : I want 2 more hours of free time for everyone!

              It’s kinda of an asshole move to just go and impose that change suddenly in a situation of emergency without any planing at all.

                Yeah, my real opinion isn’t “Yay Jellico”, more “Jellico has a different management and negociation sense than Picard and it’s being done in a way that the crew are not expecting/are used to”.

                You’re right that the changes were implemented in a very quick way, but I also remember the EP explaining “there’s not time to lose!”

                  Look his previous crew had a good union and he had to give them PTO too. In a society that didn’t have pay that was big of him. He just wanted to honor his collective bargaining agreement.

                  hes also a major thorn on sg1 side, he eventually was taken over by a gouald,

                  spoiler

                  his fate was never revealed after that episode, likely escaped from the alkesh. Many fans think he escaped, as sg1 never brought him up again.

      I’m not so sure about “most.” Seemed more like special occasions to me.
