its an understatement if one were to say that the SAF is screwed up.

ive just the perfect reason to back the above statement.

as i was lying on my bed after my nice lamb souvlaki dinner, and watching AMI..my singapore number rang. thinking that it was someone who missed me so much that the need of calling me on my spore number arise, i jumped on my nokia...

and here's how the conversation went.....

caller X: "hello desmond?"

me: "yeah?"

caller X: "am Din from whiskey company."

me: "huh?"

caller X: *sounding irritated* "i am DIN from whisky company. WHISKEY clerk."

me: "uh huh..."

caller X: "you know about your duty tomorrow?"

me: "HUH?"

caller X: *sounding EXTREMELY irritated* "you know YOUR DUTY TOMRROW???!!"

me: "i ORD-ed last year...."

caller X: *sounding shock and realised how stupid he was* "errr then why they give me your number?"

me: "i dunno..but i do know that you are calling me in australia..."

caller X: "HUH?! ok bye."

he din even give me a chance to say bye and ask how has tekong been....such rudeness. tsk. one thing for sure, he must be calling from his mobile by the speed he hung up the phone on me.

oh no.
am on DOO duty tomorrow.
i should be worried.
i need to get on the next flight back.
shit.
am gonna get extra.
erkz.

its really amazing how my name and number is somewhere around still, on some shit pieces of paper in tekong after having ord-ed for like a whole 5 mths.

i can imagine the duty forecast. DOO for 9th April 2005. LTA Desmond Tan. Raven Coy 2ic.

they are so cocked up.

good luck to the guy whos doing duty tomorrow. have fun protecting tekong. whoever it is. its definitely not me.

come to think of it...the clerk was pretty rude over the phone with all the shouting and treating me like i don't understand english.

hmm shoot them a email for me df.
