just received my reservist callup via the normal telephone. nowadays mindef really goes all the way, any way, to make sure you got their notification. last time they send letter people act blur say letter lost in delivery. now got MIW website, got sms, got telephone make sure you got no excuse to siam receive your callup notice.
i find hor, the telephone callup not beri effective le. for one thing, the message so long... it goes something like this: "you are to report to ABCD Camp at dd-mm-yyyy at hh:mm AM for Ex WXYZ..." then hor, after listening to the message, you have to acknowledge it and the system replies with an acknowledgement code of A...... i think army should issue ginko nuts to reservists. i only managed to catch the 'A' followed by a series of numbers. dunno wat number, dunno how many digits also... then the system politely added that you can also find the info from... the MIW website! wahlau ay!!! say so earlier la, then i can go website to read, better. make me listen to so much info all at once... arrrghh!! insufficient memory... segmentation fault... core dump!! heh, i dun think me running on Windows so dun have blue screen of death, hengz!
i know not everybody got computer and Internet connection la, but if it jus say MIW got, then some people can go to the website mah. like that also help mindef save on telephone bill tiobor??
anyway, i tio a callup notice in sept liao for oversea exercise in april 2006. this time one, in march, is to prepare for that oversea exercise. wah that means next year me will clock 1 high key and 1 low key lor, since both callup happened in separate financial year! ok la, at least a bit of consolidation... hiaz, still a long long way to go...
wah tomolo go office tell my project boss he sure pengz one. he oredi said the whole project team next year cannot take leave until project over. now this fella tio reservist for 5 wks...
