[b]Our Camp used to be heaven... it all started when...
Some silly higher - ups ( Probably the CSM and RSM ) decided to
follow the SAF Directive and have 3 Life Activities on 7:30 AM
every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. And even scheduled the Warrant
Officers and Officers to conduct the warm ups. Of course the NSFs
and Officers aren't happy about it, because they have to come as
early as 7:30 AM everyday. Not that I am complaining about that but
the worse is yet to come... Actually
Sometimes i prefer going for life run leh because we get to start
work late
So one fine day, during the Life Activity, as usual a few people
would be late or reach on the dot, but on that freaking day, the
RSM as usual decided to make trouble for us by making those late on
that day sign 5 extras. This do sound
unfair but LL loh NS is never Fair
So from that day onwards... we have to sign 5 extras ( Isn't that
freaking harsh? ) whenever we are late, regardless of rain or
emergency ( If got emergency, the CSM say take Urgent leave... )
and considering that some of us live on the other side of
Singapore... there's pretty much a high chance of being late.
FINE... I am not complaining, even though I DO LIVE on the other
side of Singapore from my Camp. And already leave home at 6:15 AM
everyday and only managed to reach on the dot everyday. And there's
this Warrant Officer living in the same area as me, but guess what?
If I ever see her on the train, I know I will be late for sure, but
for her, she reaches early or just on time, cause they freaking
make the NSFs fall in earlier. People
Regular mah what to do LOL
And then the freaking CSM decided to act smart and use the
directive again. He asked us to print a copy of the Medical
Directive on Reporting Sick outside. The directive says something
like you need to inform your superior if you want to report sick
outside on the day. So the freaking CSM, either misinterpreted the
directive or wanted to make our lives difficult.
So he told us to write on the R.O... "All NSFs are to request from
the CSM's permission if they want to report sick outside before 7
AM." And he happily told us he follow directive one... But upon
reading the directive it says nothing like this. But seriously, we
don't give a damn, because our DIRECT superiors are Captains and
Majors, we would rather request permission from them first, which
they will grant us more likely than the CSM will, then only INFORM
the CSM that we are reporting sick outside and our Captain has
already given approval, and there's nothing he can do about it.

The CSM is being STUPID leh,he is
giving himself more problems to handle more call from
people.
But the worse is yet to come... our Camp currently utilises Sentry
people from other Camps, since we are an admin Camp, where most of
the people are PES C and E, and only fo Ops Duty. But recently, the
Camp providing us with Sentry people claim that they are short of
manpower and will not be providing us with anymore people, so that
we have to do ourselves.
So many of us, being not Weapon trained will be holding the Baton
and Shield doing Sentry. And the best thing is our Camp has only
about 20 or so NSFs... so after deducting the personnel to do
Sentry... we have only FOUR Ops Duty Clerk left, and 1 is going to
ORD soon... However, we have 2 Divisions in our Camp, the other
Division has about 10 Ops Duty Clerk, but I don't know if they will
sent anyone for Sentry Duty...
very good already leh you still have
people from other camp to do duty for u all,my camp last time full
of People from PES C to PES E ,also have to do duty u know,only
those with EXCUSE GUARD DUTY get to be exempted,u all very
fortunate liao lah
So now its don't know 1 month must do how many Ops Duty... and the
possibility of getting extra is much much higher. Not to mention,
all of the NSFs are admin personnel in our Camp, with the inclusion
of Sentry Duty, more Ops Duty and more Extras... how are they going
to further cope with their admin work. This is not a Combat Unit
where you just train and train, we need concentration to do our
work.
Our Camp just turned from Heaven to Hell...
Fine, scold me for whining now.
Stay out already very good liao lah if
u really scare late LOL request stay in loh,alot of other people
stay in more sian leh,but i do agree your CSM abit stupid,RSO just
inform direct superior can liao lah he waste his own time,i think
he wayang abit only lah,maybe some higher ups complain so he also
LL,as the time goes by everything may revert back.
