Yes the job is difficult but it needs to be done and he is the only person I caught sleeping. Can't prove it but I'd bet it was because he was staying up late after watch playing video games. Capt Stemark,

You seem very certain that as Master you had no role to play in this, and seem very quick to simply point the finger at someone who was seemingly suffering from fatigue.
