was offered 3sg rank back in NS, but i rejected my boss (cpt) say i dont want that rank, just let me ord and reservist in peace. i was in non-combat vocation dealing with sensitive intel. i told him if he want to reward me for my contributions, pls down rank me to pte or lcp i will be very happy.
he dulan say cannot don't accept promotion, cos it's an offence, somemore is his boss (col) ask him give me one, dont make him pai zoh.
in the end bobian gimme cfc, i also lanlan accept.
heng reservist no one cares. now i just wear cpl rank go reservist and lobo. no one knows im cfc, no one cares also, and life is easier.
see those uprank to 3sg must work cow work dog so many saikang paperwork and responsibilities. ict promotion majiam demotion cos uprank liao now must do more admin saikang for the men, don't make sense.
aiyoh, sua lah. the headaches outweighs the benefits of getting promoted in ict.
