Doing duty just makes you realise how you can simply waste away one perfect day by just sitting there, talking rubbish and watching inane boring saturday shows.
Sigh. If we are not careful we may end up living our lives like this and one day too late, realise how much time we have wasted.
Friday was one hell of a day with ridiculous requests
"frank, i don't care how you do it... but i want to see 4 cartons of SAF beer on monday"
what... u think i'm some magician or sort that can just 'ting' and things appear?
"sir, can we have more off to top up so we can take two weeks off?"
what the!?! that's a real novel way of asking for off man...
got really pissed cos all this irritating requests and crap was distracting me from my real work which was seriously threatening to explode liao... feel very frustrated sometimes when I have to do mounds and mounds of paperwork, then act as courier service for weapons and so on, hence sacrificing my time to interact with the men and understand them better and the problems they are currently feeling.
felt so detached for a period of time thanks to the bloody beer problems...
i reason that seriously they should increase the pay of the QM. DyS4 does a lot of paperwork and has a lot of interesting side appointments but he rarely needs to really concern himself with the welfare of his guys since there are like only 2 - 3 and they have a high tendency to disappear thanks to their limitless offs it seems. Other PCs have their men problems to concern with, but I'd bet they rarely need to really handle so many problematic "children", and they have much less burden in terms of paperwork.
oh well... this kind of bitching is really pointless... not like it would amount to anything, and further more you never know how others feel about you. grass is always greener on the other side cos you are not trampling on it.
