paying a visit to DR EVIL...

i just went to endorse my medical letter today and a some interesting facts about the great diff of attitude of the MO in this unit and SAFTI...

apparently, when i asked for stay out, the MO immediately exclaimed "NO!" before i could finish my sentence... when i tried explaining myself, he kept interrupting me by saying no... i told him bout my ankle condition, which doesn't really allow me to climb 4 storys of uneven stairs to the bunk... although i can climb but i'm susceptible to sprains especially when the stairs are in bad condition... the answer the MO gave was just to fu1 yan3 me... "i can't do anything, NO! i can't give you stay out. so what if ur ankle has prob and loose... if u can't climb 4 storys of stairs, ask ur CSM or OC or CO to shift the bunk down to the 1st level... WOW!!! what a "great" idea!!!

*clap*

the 1st level is office... obviously he's just trying to fu1 yan3 me... he tried to end of the conversation by saying that he can't do anything...

it's not that i'm pissed not getting the permission to stay out but the attitude of the MO is questionable... the resounding NO even before i could explain myself, the way he rejected me... i feel that his immediate reply was becuz he feels that i'm another chao geng person... well, it's true that i'm kindda chao geng to get stay out but theoretically my specialist has said that i should avoid climbing of stairs... it's the way the MO puts ppl down that is annoying... he could have rejected my request nicely n not in a hostile tone... anyway, my friend to me that the medic says the MO is just lazy in writing reports...

sigh, i was sitting beside this guy while waiting for my endorsed slip of paper... he had the same ankle problem as me, maybe even worse, and the interesting thing was that he was only given 6mths excuse lower limb but he wasn't downgraded... this is an obvious difference in this MO and the SAFTI's MO... why was i downgraded with only 3mths of excuse lower limb while the other guy wasn't? why is there such a discrepency? maybe it's the mentality that when a man visits the doc, it indicates that he's trying to chao geng but when a cadet or officer visits the doc, it indicates that he's really ill... apparently, the guy who saw the specialist for his ankle, wasn't referred by the medical centre but he went to polyclinic himself and got a referral from the polyclinic... i feel that if i wasn't in ocs and was in this camp, i prolly won't know bout my ankle and heart condition, cuz a normal sprain ankle won't be suspected as a torn ligament problem and a perfectly normal ECG won't be suspected as a biscuspid aortic value problem...

sigh... life is not heaven when you're downgraded... although you'll do admin work but it can be quite stressful when work piles up, even if you ignore the meagre pay... then you'll have guard duty too, stand 2, prowling, turn outs... sounds worse than guard duty in ocs n bmt...apparently, even with my excuse lower limb status, i prolly still have to do guard duty... but thankfully, my unit is not that bad already... i heard that the pes C clerk with slip disc condition still have to be in full battle order during exercises and have to do road march even with ex lower limb status...

to brotherhood... don't be too sad that you're doing all the shitty stuff or your superiors are unreasonable cuz imagine if you're downgraded with a pay cut and together with condition, you still have to do all the shitty stuff, which is no diff from being a combat fit soldier, you'll prolly feel more miserable...
