My time recruit pay was $200.
I still remembered I save all my NS allowance and bought a desktop pc for myself after my ORD.

during my OC interview
A level are to serve 2.5 years
my OC told me that those with o level can REQUEST to serve an extension of 6 month to a year of NS (not regular)
the platoon command will need to send in a form for the request for my behalf and the NS personal will have an interview with his OC
my OC was shock i came to reject the extension
he ask me why i send in a request form for an extension
i told OC i did not send in this form nor i request the PC to send in the form
my PC want to play me out

My unit close down after ord that why no reservist for me
Rank lcp and below no reservist
No need exit permit
Cpl and above all will be post to other unit for reservist
That why my platoon commander want to play me by promoting me to CPL rank
Lucky the regular staff sergeant clerk told me about it before it was send to OC
My working working colleage who always went for reservist ask me
How come you work here for 8 years never see you go reservist having a pick IC
I reply CPT trump fired me during my NS time that why no reservist. NS don't like me
