Yesterday n today were POP days for the recruits in my camp. Quite frankly, army guys are totally desperate. Once they know of like events like POP involving parents (and of course girls - gfs or sisters of the recruits), they are sure to "show support". So the past 2 afternoons my office had been really empty cos all of them went to watch the recruits pass out, when in fact all they do is oogle at the girls there. Haaha how desperate. But i've to agree that girls attending such army stuffs tend to dress quite nicely. Oh shit, how did i know? Alright, the fact is i did look at those girls, but the real truth is i'm standing there collecting feedback forms from every single one of them. Imagine this, there are the recruits having just POP-ed and making their way to the ferry with their parents, and there's me, a 3SG standing there, holding a box that says "thank you for your feedback and have a nice day", waiting for them to pass by and drop their forms as if i'm begging for a donation. How stupid i looked! And i actually stood there for about 2hrs, it's like doing ushering just that you are more stupid-looking and at times became like jokes between the recruits and their parents/gfs. Just when you think the situation couldn't be worse, you find that i'm actually doing all this crap after office hrs! Omg.. Thats like a terrible waste of my admin time! Sigh.. You know, my training officer a LTC walked past me and asked why didn't we just leave the box somewhere. And crap thats like what i thought when the task been given to me. Guess i just dint want to sound rebellious and questioning authority, and being a spec doesn't give u much priviledge. So yah..
