Finally, the worst dreaded letter has came. I’m enlisting on 6th October. Thats roughly 5 months away. I thought I was going to enlist in the July batch but was wrong. I didn’t expect it to be so far away ! Seriously, I do not know what to do during these 5 months. Feeling lazy to work leh, but I need the money do some dealing with Mr Vuitton. Sigh. Maybe I could do some wordpress plugins (could always learn from my brother who is the top 3 wordpress plugin dev in the whole wide world) and brush up my programming skills ? But what for, after 2 years of National Slavery, I would have forgotten it clean.
So much with “Serve the nation”. What do we get back in return from serving the nation ? Entering the working world 2 years later than the females ? 10 reservice cycle that screws your job up in return for a watch with SAF logo stamped on it ? However, now the situation is even worst. Not only would you be competiting for jobs with females with 2 years work experience, you now have to welcome foreign talent in the name of “competitiveness”. Tentatively, these foreigners come from their homeland, snatch your job but the irony is that you got to protect them ??? Hell no man !
Being a Singaporean Male citizen is a 2nd-class citizen. Bottom line ? The post title
