Do you count weekends inside your ORD leave?

dibilo SG

hahaha i think we all went through the same shit right... being asked to do all the work, but we still survived. i guess sometimes things need to be learnt the hard way.

LazerLordz SG

WTH??Someone call up G6 Army..Anyway, I meant in my earlier post about auto deduction , I was trying to say that the system will take into account Sat and Sun are weekends and your leave will not be placed on these days.

Marco_Simone SG

Just read your reply again and realised that the weekend is counted inside the first week of the example? (7+4=11) Can enlighten?

edLow SG

sorry typo.

wat i mean is.. as long u dont come to work for 14 days (including weekends), ur weekends (4 days in the a/m situation) will be consider take u have taken leave.

if u took mon to fri leave on the 1st week, and mon to thur on the 2nd week, the total no of leave taken is 9 days.

so conculsion is.. dont make urself absent from work for 14 days straight.

LazerLordz SG

But when you’re gonna ORD, you won’t be coming back for more than 14 days straight.

Marco_Simone SG

So I take 14 days straight,it is 1.5 or 4 days of weekend burned?

edLow SG

i will come back so my leave wont get "eaten" come back to do clearance too. not easy to do clearance after looking so many troubles my upperstudy had gone thru when they ORD.

well, if i dont feel like going back, just throw an MC for tat day lor.

edLow SG

with the previous 5 n 1/2 day work system, u burn 3 days of leave.

for the new 5 day work system, i arent sure. it will be good if u check with ur S1's leave clerk.

end of the year i have to go overseas to settle some university admissions. it's sometime around november and i plan to take around 3 weeks of leave, lots of running around to do between tokyo, nagoya and osaka.

i've never taken leave before, so i'm not really sure what the procedures are. if i remember right, the 1st and 3rd of november is a public holiday. my bday is on the 27th of october so i'm off that day too. i intend to apply for leave on october 28th and 31st, november 2nd, 4th and 7th-11th. that's a total of 9 days of leave. including 6weekends will be a total of 18 days assuming my flight leaves on the 27th and i return on the 13th.

do i apply for leave on the days i want and then get an exit permit for the 18 day stretch?

nismoS132 SG

bump?

off days can use for overseas leave?

edLow SG

negative. u can nvr use off day for oversea leave.

for better understanding, pls check with ur unit leave clerk.

wuming78 SG

can.

but u need to apply paper leave to cover - in case of recall.

edLow SG

cannot leh..

my unit does not practise tat.
tat time i took oversea leave to go holi, den CO declare tat day an OFF day due as it in the middle of PH, den i request my chief clerk to cancel my leave. she make lots of noise sia.. say wat... i go oversea.. off cannot go.. den i dont wan my off to kena jiak.. so nvr go lor.. (i going into JB myself. no tour agency involve)

anyway can always go in illegally lah, so long no accident / recall.

Marco_Simone SG

Anyone here got many days off burned coz not allowed to clear? (ironic right? given off yet not allowed to clear and they clear for you by burning them...SAF really sucks at times...)

by the way,I got 12 days off burned by my CO coz he wanted my department to clear all offs by a certain date...and you know la.Knn thought I can clear 6-7 weeks ORD vacation instead of the usual 1 month

edLow SG

he didnt ask u to clear ur leave very good le.

some units doesnt allow enlistee to clear their leave at one time for ORD..

Marco_Simone SG

Ya I know this kind of thing cannot compare 1 la.Got a friend who cleared 3 months ORD vacation courtesy of many offs given by his encik

nismoS132 SG

our unit is the last month of service not allowed to take any leave or off. everytime must clear before the last 1 month. dunno why oso.

nismoS132 SG

would 13.5 days be rounded off as 14 days?

say you take monday to friday. nxt week monday to thursday, friday half day (PM) Razz

like this those that managed to find a job won't have much troubles too.

Marco_Simone SG

Actually I am planning this coz last month can do medical/dental and admin clearance,don't need to spend time during leave doing it. I also plan to do my last COS duty on the day before I ORD,then the next day when I hand over,it's FREEDOM LOH!
