i hate it when.......

people complain about their jobs... unless they work in the SAF...


for eg. those who go: "my pay is sooo low", 'my working hours are sooo long', "my boss is soooo mean", my workplace is so far (Hello... i've to take a ferry to get to mine) etc etc etc.... haha all that type of crap..



they fail to think about us Protectors of the Nation who are given a measly $349.20 (we're forced to pay for 2 magazines, 40 cents each, which i've yet to receive even 1) a month... that works out to about erm..... $11 a day...

ok u may argue that food & accomodation are provided, and we book out on weekends...

but our working hours are 5.45am - 10.30pm.. kinda not your average working hours...

and most of the time we book out around noon on sat and book in on sun in e evening..

this works out to us being worse off than maids...


not to mention we put our lives at risk throwing live grenades n shooting live rounds... (which truthfully speaking is quite fun though).. lol..

but nevertheless we lose 2 years of our prime... someone in my bunk did a calculation and he reckons we'll only break even with females who worked these 2 years extra until we reach the age of about 40... kinda sucks...


worse still i cannot get my damn driving license... simply have no time and its so expensive on weekends... damn it...

ok i admit i'm complaining... nearly 3 months into NS but i still nurse a hatred towards NS.. perhaps more than 3 months ago.............
