Loading bays on long haulers were either one of two things: Full of stationary crap, empty and quiet, or full of moving crap and all hands loading or unloading said crap. To have all hands assembled in an empty loading bay while quiet was… well. It was odd, to say the least.

There's a quote, and I forget to whom it's attributed to, but the person was on stage and was asked how they managed the stress of being in the public eye, to which they responded: "Don't let the bastards keep you down - and the bastards are basically everyone."
