Was recently OOC from OCS due to medical.
Recovered now, but still on status. Recommended for recourse by
PC.
However since OOC, life as a nobody is not bad at all. Gets to
book out daily and doing some sai kang in aircon office.
The next batch of cadets will be coming soon and in a delima as
to recourse or not.
Aware of the benefits as an officer during NSF and better
recognition when out looking for jobs later. However, also heard of
the many responsibilities as opposed to men during ICT. Some are
saying the short period in authorities out weights the longer term
responsibilities esp during ICT.
Is it worth to slog it out again and also have ORD extended or
go thru the remaining days as a nobody or some small
potato.
In CV life, officer or no officer, employers are more interested
in the paper quali, ability to perform in the job and enthu
right.
Looking for some advise. Thank You.
are u furthering your studies after your expected ord? if
extending is going to affect your future education, then don't
carry on.
however, looking beyond the priviledges and pay, looking beyond
the arrows and extra DO duties you should expect to do, being a
cadet and eventually commissioning is also a test of your
character.
truth be told, there are some officers that are just wayang and
no action. its whether you are the type who wants to change the
lives of 30 men and spec u will have under your charge or you just
want to look good being an officer so that people can supposedly
look up to you and call you "sir" and get the good pay.
my advice if u can't find the answer is to spend time talking to
one of your wing's instructors whom you respect and ask him what is
it like to be an officer.
best of luck.
