The Fire Axe is your tool during emergencies (because you can use it like a crowbar to open the door when the power is off) and your weapon (traitors, revolutionaries, and cultists usually try to steal the axe because you can kill a person in seconds). The fire axe is protected with a Fire Axe Cabinet. To open it, you can use an Atmos Tech ID to unlock the cabinet, or use a multitool to force the unlocking. If all else fails, grab something and beat the cabinet open. | The Fire Axe is your tool during emergencies (because you can use it like a crowbar to open the door when the power is off) and your weapon (traitors, revolutionaries, and cultists usually try to steal the axe because you can kill a person in seconds).

An excellent way to be proactive within your job is fixing the broken windows that occur every round. Gird your loins with a toolbelt if you can, grab some metal and glass, and patrol the outer passageways. Almost always, the task requires a low-pressure or no-pressure exposure to the great beyond. By creatively rotating and moving surviving windows, you can lock in your precious atmosphere, then replace the broken glass and grill. The genuinely hardcore technicians do minor spacewalks with only the flame of their welding torch for heat, sipping sweet oxygen through their breath masks behind a welding helmet. Are you hardcore? No, you're not. Go back to being a hardsuited engineer who can't find a hull breach without a pair of mesons and never bothers to fix them anyway. | An excellent way to be proactive within your job is fixing the broken windows that occur every round.
