I'm due for Ex. Wallaby ICT this Oct. 2 weeks ago (end Aug) was
my medic refresher course and I went for it. When I was in camp the
clerk came and told me that I was not needed to attend the 2days
training and I wasn't due for Ex. Wallaby (since the refresher
course is needed for that)
And so I went back home and continue my work as a freelance web
designer until today (Sep 8th), my unit called me and told me that
they made a mistake. I am due for the exercise in Oct and prior to
the exercise, I need to complete my refresher course which they
have to reschedule me again within these 3weeks.
I'm in a dilemma now. I've taken up projects in-lieu of the
cancellation of my upcoming ICT, and now they tell me they made a
mistake. So I'm supposed to cancel all my projects, forgo all my
income for the month of Sep/Oct, risk my reputation and make my
clients unhappy just to cater for the army?
A lot of questions are left unanswered in my mind. How come they
took so long (1week+) just to verify that they made a mistake? I
doubt they will notice it if I didn't call them twice last week to
ask for verification of my status. And how come in the 1st place
there is miscommunication?
I'm trying to get a deferment for my ICT this Oct but I
seriously doubt it will be approved. Is there any way in which I
can do to improve my chances of getting deferred?
Sighz, why am I clearing up the mistakes which the army
made....
in ur defer application, appeal for this defer since its not ur
fault, its the admin lapse. in there, make a good
complaint.
