Watch Hound
Half of your job is to look after the armory; make sure it's stocked with extra supplies at all times. The other job is outfitting your fellow co-workers with weapons, armor, and ammunition of their reasonable request. When not passing out gear a supply specialist should be ordering or getting new supplies.
If you have no pressing matters at hand, you should be coordinating with your fellow officers over your radio channel, checking cameras when people call for help, and updating arrest records. Your fellow officers will appreciate your help in sending them where they can make a difference. You should also do a roll call every so often, to make sure that all your officers are still alive and well. You have the opportunity to make marshals run like a well-oiled machine.
Also make sure you keep track of what's in the armory. You start a list of all the equipment currently in the armory and make sure to note down what equipment is loaned out and to whom. Keeping track will better allow you to retrieve your equipment when its no longer needed and to discover who is responsible when equipment goes missing.
Remember to follow standard security procedures.
Things to Know
As a supply specialist, you have full control over the entirety of the armory. Other than that, you are on the same level as everyone else in Security. You report to the Warrant Officer just like every other officer.
Have an advanced knowledge of the law. There aren't many people who want to be brigged for no reason, and nobody wants to be held until transfer without due cause. If necessary, you might even need to release a prisoner for being held unlawfully. Since you are less busy than a standard officer expect to be asked to update records or look over a prisoner after they've been sentenced, which while optional, go a long way for your fellow officers if you volunteer for it.
Equipment
To help your supplying ways, grab a pair of cuffs (for prisoner transportation) that are in a box in the armory, and a stun baton. You already have a taser and a pair of sunglasses. Several portable flashers are in the armory. These CAN and will be useful in securing the armory during attacks. Make sure no one gets your ID, and you know who the Warrant Officer is, as you need to defend your equipment from would-be thieves. Nobody other than yourself, the Warrant Officer, and the blackshield commander are allowed into the armory; walking into the armory without authorization is considered trespassing.
Don't Sit Around
Sitting at your desk is alright, but you should make sure to scan the cell blocks every once in a while to make sure no one is hurt in the cells, or there are any areas of break in. One of your jobs is to protect all of the security from people busting in, or out. A quick sweep every few minutes should be fine, being a supply specialist is a mostly relaxing job, just make sure to stun anyone who is behaving suspiciously in security and hold them till the warrant officer comes. Remember, talk first, disarm second, kill if that's your only option (it never is).
If you are going to sit around, it may be worthwhile to update the security records for any prisoners. Seriously. Update the security records.
Do remember that you can say custom sentences in encoded speech by ending your sentence with an @. For example, My ass hurts from sitting on this stupid fucking chair all shift@ would appear in game as encoded speech.
