Post-army syndrome
-
i dunno if u agree wif me, but the "system" is designed to play with people's minds inducing paranoia, fear and worst of all uncertainty
-
I went thru recourse too, one way it sucks but another way u feel more experienced. The second time i was treated better by the sergeants becos i was considered "lao jiao"Originally posted by LazerLordz:You do have a point.For me, I came out a stronger fellow after a 3mth exercise.All the pressure and breaking point, even the arguments with my office mates helped to hone me and make me more reseilient.
Well, I'm one of the lowest ranked in my unit, but the respect I get even during recourse from all the recruits opened my eyes real wide, that no unit is equal and even though you think you have it bad, there are people who would love to be in your shoes. -
3 mths after ORD, i still feel like a NSF...when i returned to camp a few weeks ago, i unconsciously tucked in my t shirt...macham scared will get scolded...

U are supposed to have done that anyway...unless U want to show ur lao jiao attitude...then that would be different story...Originally posted by khk:3 mths after ORD, i still feel like a NSF...when i returned to camp a few weeks ago, i unconsciously tucked in my t shirt...macham scared will get scolded... -
it is not wrong feel likfe NSF, but when army sounds keep echo in your mind after u ORd to the extent that u have problems with civilian life adjusting, it is called psychologicial problemOriginally posted by khk:3 mths after ORD, i still feel like a NSF...when i returned to camp a few weeks ago, i unconsciously tucked in my t shirt...macham scared will get scolded... -

y so stress sia u all. army life is the best time i ever had. when no exercise, this is my daily routine (except on HLS days where i play soccer till 11am)
-everyday bua long long, after first parade go canteen for breakfast, 930am play $0.20 KOF, 1030am play magic card, 1130 take chip go see got what food to eat at cookhsu, no good go canteen eat, play KOF again till 130, back to my office, play magic card again.. play till 3pm teabreak, then play KOF till last parade.
exercise period and lesson conducting abit xiong lah but after that continue to enjoy. the best thing abt army is, when u are out of the gate, u can forget everything.. totally 0 commitment needed. no need to worry about projects datelines, no need to worry about tutorials, no need to worry abt exams/ results etc.
how can u not love army? almost everyone of my campmates miss army after we ORD and got a taste of what the "real" world is like. -

SAF should include such real life accounts in those handbooks and guides that soon-to-be recruits get when they go for their medical checkup.Originally posted by dibilo:y so stress sia u all. army life is the best time i ever had. when no exercise, this is my daily routine (except on HLS days where i play soccer till 11am)

Tell me which job pays you to slack? Chao keng and feel proud whenever you siam an arrow or get an MC?
Right now in Uni, when you get sick or take a nap, you would be worried man!!!
NS rocks but the pay doesn't unless they pay me 1.8K as a recruit and pay bonuses till ORD.. haha -
Agree with u.....but risky...got charge, got DB, got 1206...tekan....rank system....total authorithan rights over others...Originally posted by Misogynist:Tell me which job pays you to slack? Chao keng and feel proud whenever you siam an arrow or get an MC?

Uni? fail, dropout at the most wasted yr money...but no body is going to charge or tekan u......u can still make it to 1.8K.....there is no reason to compare....before army u were leading the same life as civilian, after army it is the same too.....so what is all the fussing for? take a nap? dont tell me u didnt do it before in sec or pri. school and worried over it...
If there ws no such hing as compulsory NS, it would be the same all the way for u...the permanent is obvious,,,army is just temporary divertion... -
sounds like you had a pretty bad experience in the army.. oh well.. i hope things work out fine for you.. =D.. take care
