I believe that, very soon, I'll die from fatigue. Let me explain.
Friday 24th Feb 2006 Time: 0745hrs - 0700hrs Total No. Of Hours: 23hrs 15mins Venue: War Hub What did I do: Face the computer, left clicked the mouse about 1 million times, and right clicked it about 300,000 times.
Dear was complaining that we, NSFs, should not work overnight like this, as we are only getting an allowance, not a pay. The difference? I really do not know. Lolx.
I can tell you that for the 20 hours (minus off lunch time and toilet breaks) I was in front of the computer, I wasn't paying attention for 95% of it. The remaining 5% is early in the morning when I tried to be "garang", but failed terribly.
The main reason why we're spending so much time doing all these, is because SAF officers like to say the words "NO" and "CHANGE". Just because of these 2 words, we came up with a working process called the Intelligence Work Cycle. It goes like this.
1) Receive work. 2) Do work. 3) Review work. 4) Show to superior for approval. 5) The word "NO" and "CHANGE" comes up. 6) Receive work again.
Therefore, we concluded that the Intelligence Work Cycle will be forever, as there will always be changes. These people cannot make up their mind, and they cannot remember what they said to us. One minute, he can tell us to do Work A, and the next they'll deny making us do Work A, say "NEVER MIND. WE CHANGE", and then do Work B. In the end, who suffer? Us. Sigh.
Sunday 26th Feb 2006 Time: 0700hrs - 1300hrs Total No. Of Hours: 6hrs Venue: Sentosa Football Pitch What did I do: Run around the field like a madman, injured my right outside foot, and lost the match 4-5.
It's been more than a year, since I last touched a soccer ball. Seriously, I'm lacking match fitness. I was panting after running for just 5 minutes! More than a year ago, it's a totally different story!
I need to work on my skills and fitness again, but I simply do not have the time. Army, Army, Army. I shan't further explain. Somebody out there, just give me secret manual that has been lost in the pugilistic world, "Get Fit Without Exercising".
Monday 27th Feb 2006 Time: 0745hrs - 0500hrs Total No. Of Hours: 21hrs 15mins Venue: War Hub What did I do: Same as Friday.
To conclude, Total No. Of Days Passed: 4 days Total No. Of Hours Passed: 96 hours Total No. Of Hours Spent Working: 44 hours 30 mins Total No. Of Hours Spent Exercising: 6 hours Total No. Of Hours Spent With Dear: 40 hours
Therefore, 96 - 44 1/2 - 6 - 40 = 5 1/2 hours
Using the above formula, I found out that I've only slept peacefully for 5 1/2 hours in 4 days. Percentage wise: (5.5 / 96) * 100 = 5.73%
