Have you ever worked for an ex SAF officers like a major or colonel as your boss before? how was it? were they still acting as if they are in SAF?
I used to work for an ex colonel as boss. super duper long winded and everytime talked about alexander the great or war. in one of his long winded sessions, he said to me. we have to be ready for war, even if we are unprepared. anytime we have to go to war and I was like, ya right colonel.
Their thinking is different.
Very army style.
Treat him some KFC, on the box theres even a older colonel

yes you are right. cant blame him lar, he worked for the army for the past 20 over years le. now leave the army, not easy to make a transition from army to civilian work life ma.
he even once told me, alexandar the great once told his soldiers that he will, like them, sacrifise and will not drink water, but in private he drank the water after addressing them. I dunno why he told me this story for?
Their mind only by right, cannot by left.
Very stone type of leadership.
Depends. Nowadays army officers can be damn slack. Different liao. LOL...
Those enthu will not retire. LOL...
One thing is they love to talk about army life! How great he is this and that!
Sigh!

wow looks like u also got ex army officer as your boss eh lol
Ever work with one and ever work with colleague who is very siao on army guy.
their self worth is based on the military. what do u expect? lol
they should change their mindset ma right. those who cannot change how to survive like this.
from my point of view, the older generation colonels are colonels because they have played safe all these years. No major mistakes and then promotion comes automatically after some time. Many lose touch with the real world while they're there.

well what he said is properly not wrong about preparing for war if you read history on the Battle for Singapore. He properly have access to information that you don't during his military career.
He is properly was passover for promotion Given that he left the army. He was not good enough.
He properly volunteer for reservist as a Colonel. So don't look down on him he properly still command a reservist battlion during ICT.
yes me knows that too....up north..malaysians dont like us and probably would enslave us from looks of it...down south indo dun like us and even are bigger ass holes when they see a foreign military person in uniform(both in spore and outa spore).....................yup......enemy heads piled up on a small mountain with scantily clad gals dancing around them at biye under a huge bonfire is the theme of the day.
all in a days werk.
Colonel is colonel, but it's in Singapore. He never even go war, so Ge Kiang for what?
no he was a SAF scholar and he asked for early retirement in his 40s as a colonel. now he is in his 50s, almost 60 liao.
so he retire early, now he lao liao, tell all the grandfather stories ah lol.
Since he likes Alexandra the Great so much, he should go suck Alexandra's cock!
If he tells me alexander the great stories, I will tell him about how america was almost seperated into half if not for abe lincoln. See he shiok or not.
