Well then I think the solution to the problem is to allow jobs to be somewhat autonomous.
For instance, I play as an Atmos Tech. Although every round I do take my job seriously more than anyone every....fucking....round.... It doesn't stop me from going out to socialize (mute vulp socializing? wtf?), getting a drink at the bar, maintenance diving, shenanigans, etc. I pay attention to the time to make sure I check the atmos alarm/atmos roughly 15-30 minutes and respond to breaches if announced on commons. If its not too seriously, it doesn't take me long to clear the breach and be like "Welp...my job is done, I don't need to do repairs because thats not my fucking job, that's the engineers" then I walk away and going back to doing what I was doing.
Cargo doesn't have that luxury because they have to constantly watch for people who place orders or need access to the autolathe. My suggestion is make the AUTOLATHE PUBLIC JUST LIKE THE ONE IN METASTATION. and the other part is Cargo gets a program on there PDA that notifies them if someone place an order or something
Medbay has to man the front desk even for a small fucking injury. Allow sleepers to be public and block of Medbay from the left side or something or block the medicine fridge, cryochamber, and OR, etc... Make sleepers not require another person to fiddle with it and allow the people INSIDE the sleeper to control it. Other than that, I can see PDAs beeping autonomously (or crew monitors) when someone is seriously injured.
Science...Fucking Science... I don't know how to help you.
Engineer... YOU ARE SOL WITH THOSE FUCKING STATION GOALS! I FEEL SO FUCKING SORRY FOR YOU SHITS! Everytime I play CE, i swear Im like...No...no station goals *Burns paper*
PS... I typed all this half asleep...I literally just woke up and hungry.... Other than that...Lets utilize PDAs more often and fuck tablets/laptops, they are useless.
Edit: I don't know about other people, but there are just many things I like to do within the 2 hours you get per round. I don't like spending a whole lot of time optimizing atmos to the point where it just becomes ridiculous. I will fix breaches and turn on the turbine if the tesla/singo is not on or stop working. But, I don't want anyone stopping me from going to the library to read a book or play cards or beat up the clown.
