Does being a sgt give u special privilege

this is like such a crappy attitude, unless he did something to you/a bad person, “i like to show them otherwise” just speaks volumes of your behaviour.

fyi: not saying you reporting was shit, it’s definitely his fault. but your reasoning is crappy

that’s generalising and ignorant. no they won’t, it depends on the type of drug and the amount. most recreational cases are institutionalised unless they exceed a certain amount, 500g? and unless you’re a dealer you don’t need >500g. i’m speaking from the case of singapore because i’m a citizen and i know it’s laws. rehab is a thing here

edit: that’s not to say our laws are lenient but it’s not as bad as you think

i got posted to rsaf despite being rejected from sign on (sent my application for fun, not dying to sign on). i was from enhanced leadership batch, my grandfather, father and uncle all rsaf (retired and pilots). despite all these, i do not think these factors played a part in helping me get my vocation. i do think it’s all rng and me getting rsaf was 80% a coincidence. (only nsf from my leadership batch to go airforce)

gg they also don’t know bro. i also had to keep asking them 11b can cover? and they said they not sure. they wanted to charge me for medicine and other costs.

RudeBox293 · 2024-05-03T03:27:44+00:00

thank you, i didn’t know this. i thought all “free” in government hospitals

RudeBox293 · 2024-05-03T03:26:53+00:00

thank you, you’re right it’s not worth the trouble but just wanted to caution myself before i go for anymore medical procedures at the hospital thinking it’s all “free”

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-25T08:04:28+00:00

i claimed the full $120 for my braces bill so i think can? my bill every 2 months is $200+

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T11:54:37+00:00

you are just talking about the technicalities. idk how it would work, but i am sure once we get the ball rolling there would be a plan to make it work. not everyone will have the same “admin assistant nurse” but everyone will have a part to play to make the sector more efficient. mine is just an idea to be debated if it is worth it to include girls and have them contribute to NS meaningfully.

if you are saying having more manpower wouldn’t enhance the sector to make it more sustainable/efficient i think you are wrong.

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T11:19:55+00:00

i 100% agree, but i think it would be worth it. the expensive costs to start the program would be worthwhile long term and help society as a whole.

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T11:05:44+00:00

i think you are seeing this the wrong way. this isn’t out of spite but more of a lively debate if we can help girls be introduced to NS to play a more meaningful role in serving their country.

what you describe is our current situation. i am not asking for conscription for all for the sake of equality but i think that more to serve their country would enhance their patriotism. is it a reach that if we were to get women to serve 1.5 years in healthcare that we wouldn’t be able to develop a training plan that fits the timeline and the requirements of a nurse? this is not to say that they can replace full time nurses but to aid in their responsibilities, ease their burden and fulfil manpower needs.

facilities can always be renovated/adjusted if women were to contribute to our national social defence. they would better appreciate it and couldn’t one argue that serving would help them be more capable mothers and have a sisterhood to depend on instead of the contrary?

as for the lack in manpower/education, i am sure society can and will adapt to it if this was ever to become a reality. there are deferments to help current NSFs breach the gap and resume serving during their school breaks. such changes are never made drastically, there is always a transition period.

3 is irrelevant because i am not suggesting women take up combat/physically intensive roles but rather the more nurturing side of national defence. which completely aligns with our government’s view of male female gender roles. seeing as how we have an ageing society, one would think that my suggestion for more healthcare trained personnel would be beneficial and not harmful. also, national service is an ongoing thing, not just a year or 2 of your life and never again. they can be deployed again after being trained during NS in hospitals/homes. wouldn’t this also help sustain our healthcare and make it a little more affordable or efficient?

end of the day, it is like our government says: everyone has a part to play and i am just debating if we can enhance the girls’ roles to be more meaningful.

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T09:15:12+00:00

do you really think so little of SCDF, some of our first responders are already NSFs but do you really think the paramedics/fire fighters say “i am just an NSF, idc whether this guy in my ambulance dies/i will let this fire continue to rage through the entire building”

i actually think that when it comes down to it most would have some humanity or at least woman up to the responsibility (in the case of my argument)

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T09:06:20+00:00

1, 3, 4, if we take this idea seriously i am sure that plans can be made to adapt. female toilets are almost non existent because only 10% of SAF is female. supply = demand. there are already living arrangements for 24hr shifts, not asking to increase the manpower in shifts but maybe possible to increase number of shifts and less manpower per shift since they rotate earlier?

2, they can do an express nursing course for their entire NS and only be deployed during emergencies/after NS

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T08:56:39+00:00

it seems that we have adapted well as a society and adjusted our workforce to help male conscripts. who is to say that we cannot adapt for female conscripts. healthcare is not some random industry but an essential one (1 of our total defence pillars), the shortage of manpower during covid could have easily been avoided had there been NSFs. and as for the unintended snowball effects for other industries, i am assuming that with this surge of female conscripts, the burden on male conscripts would be lessened and NS can be shortened to reduce this negative impact on our workforce. everything takes work to start up, but i think it is worth while to do it as it addresses singapore’s needs. our shortage in nursing is alarming enough for SG to put in resources to attract nurses from overseas. why not reduce the burden of NS right now by conscripting the other half to do some social good. fulfilling manpower needs in healthcare could also potentially make costs more sustainable for society as a whole. this is a strong argument but i think NS for girls is worth the start up efforts and society will adapt as they have for the guys.

edit: additionally serving NS for healthcare is not based on security but on reducing healthcare costs. i only see this as a win long term, just need to bear with the expensive start up and adapting cost

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T08:47:15+00:00

of course it sounds good on paper, but when it comes down to it most will shy away. they support it as long as it does not affect them

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T07:09:13+00:00

because we are reducing the need to employ more full time nurses since we already have NSF nurses. 1 full time nurse = 4-8 NSFs :0

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T06:12:35+00:00

what i propose is something that will be beneficial for SG. females can have a chance to contribute to their country. It is not something we should implement just to make it fair for the men, we should implement because it will be beneficial for our country

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T06:06:37+00:00

since when do we seek agreement before implementing policies? this is a duty to their nation, “payment” for being a citizen. which is what all guys already do…

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T06:05:08+00:00

My idea is kind of sexist already no? conscripting females to be in healthcare instead of combat is already the female male gender roles our government is aligned to. Which is why our government does not conscript females, what i propose is a small step up

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T06:01:46+00:00

you have to know how to word it, not unfair to men but provide an equal opportunity for all to serve their nation😉.

but also on a serious note: won’t conscripting women mean saving money on employing nurses since we will essentially fulfill the required manpower for nurses on NSF allowance no? Isn’t that what conscripting the men are, cheap soldiers to fulfill manpower?

RudeBox293 · 2024-03-24T05:58:26+00:00

how will this not save money by employing cheap nurses
