Redditer: I'm an NSman officer, I regret it and I'm sick of serving

I'm an NSman officer, I regret it and I'm sick of serving​

When I was in BMT, young and dumb, prefrontal cortex hasn't fully developed yet, I indicated interest in leadership school because "i want to make the most out of the 2 years". Got sent to OCS, did a lot of unnecessary chiongsua and saikang, served the 2 years as an officer. I thought I was serving my nation, developing my character. Got sword some more.

Fast-forward to today as an adult with a more fully-developed brain, I am doing my 10 year ICT cycle and I 100% regret it. As officers, we need to return to camp before the main body, plan the training program for the rest of the returning NSMen, and then execute the program. Go through this game of make-believe, waste a load of time for the whole company. Literally wasting every guy's life doing "military exercises", training so on paper we can say that we have military capability for deterrence. For 2-3 weeks each year. Away from our family and work. Imagine if these 2-3 weeks can be used for more leaves instead of going back to camp. Like in EU countries. Europeans have month-long holidays, Singaporean men go back to army camp eat shit.

I should've just put in the bare minimum, been a storeman or faked some sort of chronic health issue and just do my own thing for 2 years. Singapore did nothing to deserve my life, energy and time. Half the population is non-Singaporean, and half of the citizen population are women who don't need to serve, so many free-riders riding on our lives. And everyone just treats it as a fact of life, oh I'm a guy so you need to serve. Screw that, it's literally institutional sexism baked into the system. And what do you mean throughout a large part of my life I have to be chained to this "duty" and notify the government everytime I leave the country for some time? Like some sort of slave underclass.

I'm disgusted by this state of affairs. Now I just want to do the bare minimum and finish the 10 years that I'm liable for. Oh I forgot it doesn't end there. As an officer I'm legally liable up to 50 years old. Lol stupid me.

Discussion

Less than 12 hours ago, an OP complained that being an ofccifer is a pain in the ass in summary.

The thing is who ask you to be officer in the first place?

Lol.

For those haven't woken up from lalaland NS, I HOPE this serves a wake up call if you intend to be SGT/Officer - don't bully/power trip your men for one day you know you want their help in civilian life.

Not interested, dont be one. Simple.

Your rank stops within the camp gate.

Beyond the gates, it's how your men respect you.

We can do his wife gracefully. Leopard crawl to their master bedroom and pump her full tank on their marital bed.

Got one mutherfarker said that NS is a duty served with patriotism. 555

The bigger stupid thing is that NS is privileged only for male Sinkies. In this age of gender equality why this discrimination? Male Sinkies must “enjoy” these privileges for a good part of their adult lives.

Anyone who go through MOE school should know sinkie culture is fucking rotten all only know how to kiss PAP ass

 

[Truthspeak]

If you have all the enlistees that were supposed to serve and ended up quitting, the government are unlikely to charge everyone of them

Unity is the key but Singaporeans are already divided and conquered

Same for vaccination roll out but most Singaporeans are stupid so they are likely to surrender themselves than united themselves

Was he an ACS boy ? Tiagong ACS boys chances of becoming SAF officer very high. The army sees leadership qualities in ex ACS boys.

I do not the current situation but during my NS days, I did not see an over representation of ACS boys at OCS.

And wife looking forward to that 2-3 weeks. No need holiday with hubby also can.

 

[syed putra]

NS had outgrown its usefulness. What you need is professional dedicated army. Its not numbers but quality and equipment .

 

[Si1verwolf]

This redditor speaks the truth.

And so that sinkie men can't have an avenue to complain that ang mohs/foreigners no need to serve NS, the government played this political chess piece of coming up with the SAFVC to "prove" that ang mohs/foreigners also serve NS (and thus disprove the "fallacy" that only sinkie men serve NS).

Not a single NSF NCO will ever attend such formal nights even once for the entire duration of their national service and reservist, but SAFVCs get this privilege.


SAFVC? *LMAO*
