the only place I can think of, where there is nothing to do at
night, would be CMPB ....
any other place, there's always some night duty to be done,
there's duty clerk, COS, duty storemen, and all sorts of other
classified manning if you're in those "project offices" ... and
even when you're NOT on duty, remember that you're still on the
fire detail ... and are around as spare men ... if someone falls
sick or have an emergency, you're up there to take up the slack ...
the SAF is not stupid enough to feed and pay for the utilities of
legions of men to just idle around doing nothing, they could have
saved a lot of money just sending everybody home when there's no
training planned, neh ?
even the slackers at mindef have to do manning ....
aren't you pushing the boundaries of common sense a little?
lets take the "slackers" at mindef. the common practice if i'm
not wrong is that the next person on the rooster picks up the slack
if the first person falls sick. so if you're 5 person down the
line, how likely is that? having spare men around to pick up the
slack? well I guess if you want to count it that way you could.
and SAF is stupid enough to do so. doesn't help that they have
tonnes of moeny
