Total Newbie - Fleet?

I'm new to the game (currently only one character created at Commander with an Akira class), this is my first MMORPG, I'm not going to count my online iRacing anywhere near the same category, haha. I'm not even completely sure what benefit joining a fleet has, except I'm sure that is can be a benefit. But I figure I'll start up a post and see what's out there; just in a few minutes in this forum it's obvious the answer is, a lot.
I'm still figuring out how things work and my playing style is definitely casual. I almost always play on my laptop on the couch with my girlfriend in the room, so I'm not really looking to join a voice chat.
Since I play sporadically as my schedule permits I would also not be a good fit for a fleet requiring being on at certain times. I'm in the USA, central time zone with a normal hour day job, so when I'm on is almost always be evening during the week or weekends (exception would be a day off work), so, I would think a more US based fleet would work well.
I've stumbled across Fleet holdings (haven't done my complete research on this setup as well), I'm all for contributing to the fleet, but since I'm a casual player starting out, I think I'd prefer a fleet without strict rules/requirements on contributions. I'm playing this for fun, and sending a few dollars towards the developers as a thanks for a nice game is something I'll do for the FtP games I play a lot, but I'm not looking to allocate a part all my paychecks to the game.
I'm 35 so I'd be looking for a drama free mature fleet. It's extremely hard to offend me (and love sarcasm), just prefer to stay away from the childish stuff and bickering. Other random things about me, since I was a kid I've loved Star Trek and cars; a few years ago I started driving my car around race tracks, and that is the most fun hobby you can have.
Any Fleets want to recruit me, or should I go back to my corner of the 'verse and hide?

The Socially Awkward Tribbles would like to extend you a warm welcome.
We're a small close knit gang, that's as casual as they get.
We have great understanding for real life obligations, and don't set any definitive requirements.
If this seems interesting, feel free to poke me ingame or here.
And we can get to know eachother better.
Stay shiny
