Being the head of Starfleet's HR Command might not seem like a glamorous job. And, it's not.

There's a Wesley Crusher scene from one episode of TNG where he's at the academy and a big guy with webbed hands bumps into him and then due to alien cultural misunderstanding the big guy starts shouting at Wesley. Then he shouts back and the guy treats him as a friend. Then Wesley explains to his girlfriend for that episode that the web hand guy's people see courtesy as an insult, so you need to be rude as hell to keep them calm. That episode did two things. It implied Star Fleet has no need for an HR department because apparently every recurring character and nepobaby knows the customs of every single known species out there. It also established a species whose language or culture operates on a seemingly clever idea for one scene in a show, but would never actually work in practice. It sounds cool to have say an entire language is based on reciting references to scenes from that alien culture's version of the Prose Edda, but that's not how language works. Not at all. This is actually an issue he covered in his Star Fleet JAG corps video. Having a show about the space station that hosts the HR department, the JAG corps, and the office of the chief guidance counselor sounds cool, but literally every other show in the franchise has multiple episodes where the bridge crew do those things without training or consulting those offices. Or worse yet, the character most hated by the fans at that time literally Mary Sue knew it alls his way through those issues.

Goddamn you man, now I want a fun little sitcom style show with this guy from HR and BAYMOR hangin' out eating lunch in a corridor with squid aliens. I miss DS9 ._.

Another amazing video! I love these looks into behind the scenes roles that Starfleet would have (or at least need some equivalent of) in order to function.

“Uh, can you cut that part.” That is going to fuel a smile all day. Thank you.

I really hope they get you on the show for more of this kind of stuff, very lower decks adjacent, the mundanity of the utopia.

I really do love these skits. Greatness!

Holy shit sir! I have binge watched a bunch of your "Starfleet Job" series and I am blown away. You're hilarious but you ALWAYS have something to say in it. I'm blown away by "Starfleet Guidance Counselor"! Amazing sir.

I like the idea that TOS era HR failed to get a representative on every vessel, but managed to change the regulation that Captains can't go on away missions (because they'll get infected by touchy space fungus or whatever.)

HR: Looks at James T Kirk. HR: add 3 more infractions for trying and failing to seduce crew members.
