You're a clerk? 1st time i ever hear anyone say a clerk is
respected lets not even say highly respected. All i know are clerks
are blame by everyone for every single mistake they make and all
the time they cockup our documents. Still remembering having to
travel down to HQ 3 times to just settle 1 issue cos the clerk keep
cocking up my document by forgetting this and that and a simple
issue too me months to settle.
Because the SAF doesn't recognize that some ppl are only healthy
but not fit, and post them to combat units. These ppl are denied a
chance in command sch because they are not fit when they went into
their enhanced bmt.
You get ppl of a lower adminstrative prowess downpesing for crap
reasons to become cockup clerks. You get ppl on the other spectrum
to struggling to pass ippt/soc and chiong sua all day long without
being proficent at it.
If ppl get to choose, of course they'll choose to slack. Hence,
they choose for us. But look at the outside world, nobody chooses
your job for you. (except by circumstances hard to refuse eg
parents' biz, bonds, job market etc) Otherwise you'll get healthy
ppl all whipped away to work in factories/rigs/construction and
unhealthy ppl working in office all day long. And we know, that is
inefficent.
I'm a signaller in a unit that has their own mono intake. I've
been thru bmt and signal course. Both of which, I stayed in a bunk
with ppl of the same educational level. Imagine how I feel being
the only A level student in my bunk now. Back in sec sch/jc I
didn't think much of these people, I was alright with all of them.
Only after coming into my present unit, I look down on them. A
levels big eff is it? It's basic morals and attitude. Elaborating
on how much I have to cover for them, suffer for them, help them,
get abused is simply too much for me to bear. All these because of
an injury in bmt making me fail my ippt.
Nsf in saf is such that the more you know how to, the more you
do. Imagine how much I have to help the platoon on signal stuff.
Because of the slipshodness of the system, I don't believe some ppl
in my platoon actually knows anything. Not saying that I'm good, I
slept in the classes, didn't pay attention and whatnot.
Not only my freedom is gone, my slippers are gone if I leave
them under my bed. And I won't know till I see that it's gone. I'll
have to get it back myself. They are so freaking 'polite'. Set up
vehicular set? The a level kids do all since they know better. Area
cleaning? I get scolded for cleaning up for them.
TS is totally F*cked up. You deserved to be depressed. You are
not enlightened enough to see the disparity of ppl's living
conditions. Not saying that I'm mature but I appreciate the fact
that at least I'm not in the rifle companies.
You book in monday morning, I book in sunday night.
Tuesdays Thursdays nights out, I have none.
Book out friday evenings? Try saturday nights.
Clerk? Aircon paperwork? Try a signaller's field pack, camo on,
walk 24km tactical route march all night long in the rain. Oh ya.
Maintain communications while at that.
Gf? I'm single.
Self centred people? How about a whole platoon of gangsters,
thieves and robbers?
Nvm, eff it. I end with a positive note.
Got nights out? Go out with your branch for supper.
Bookout pia gf.
Ns is good, it opens your eyes to the world.
Btw, I downpesed to C2L2 temp from A from last medical
board.
