Thrillho:
I have been misread, likely my fault, if I have come across as saying that May specifically would find these conversations problematic.

It was the way in which May was being spoken about and the likelihood of people with analogous experience reading it, and expanding it outwards.

There are plenty of good and bad reasons why May may behave the way and ways that she does.

--- Quote from: Nigel on 23 May 2019, 07:42 ---I realize that forgetting the cable is "an important plot point", but seriously? It's like leaving your phone, keys, wallet AND insulin pump behind.

A bit of a challenge for my 'willing suspension of disbelief'.

--- End quote ---
Your phone is the only one I think is germane here, as the other ones would stay on your person.

If I may craft a scenario: If May's battery has been acting up like that, and assuming that AI get the same amount and numbers of breaks, She's prolly recharging on her fifteens and lunch, just in case. It's prolly a hassle to plug in both ends every two hours, so she just forgot to snag it in the hour between her 'smoke break' and getting off shift.

(In my state your 'smoke break' is apparently separate from the standard law-mandated 15 minutes every two hours. as evidenced by my managers standing out at the docks for fifteen minutes smoking, snuffing the cigarette, then standing out there for another 15 minutes for their break.)

hedgie:
Smokers often also get other, unofficial breaks.  Very few bosses want to see a terminal nicotine addict deprived of their fix.

WRT to May's cable, and the stuff one normally carries in their pockets, it's totally believable.  I empty my pockets of phone, keys, wallet, cigarettes, lighter, etc every time I get home.  I almost never forget to bring any given thing, but it is known to happen.

Is it cold in here?:
Sex worker character? Been there, done that, and kinky to boot.

DSL:
In my experience you're gonna forget something important at the worst possible time. Why should AIs be any different?
