Most of the actually important work for a telecoms admin can be done within the first minute of a round, and apart from simple quality of life things there can be a lot for a telecoms admin to do that would actually help the station. While you can't hear what's going through most of the channels you can check the logs and make sure everything is fine. If you notice anything odd feel free to turn on your security transceiver and tell [[Security]] about it, though they might get annoyed if you mention every little thing to them.

When the nukies declare war, IMMEDIATELY get to work on building a backup telecoms system. Nine times out of ten, the telecoms satellite will be the first target of them, so building a backup network is extremely important.

As a [[Traitor]], the biggest asset you have is your scripting. Do some crazy shit like changing all comms messages to redirect [[Security]] towards a nonexistent threat for a while. Or, you can just mute your target, but that's boring. You also have an intercom in your control room that lets you tune into and listen to any channel including Command or Security.
