A Day at Work

Everyone always wonders what i do in camp and how come ive got such a good life. Only a few people or friends understand what i do and those people are officers and those in the army life as well.. so today ill give everyone and insight on what i really do in camp

I'm an officer mess boy, which means i take care of the mess, for those of you who dont know what a mess is, is kind of like lets say a lounge or games room. The mess is where the officers usually come to relax everyonce in a while during their busy office hours. In the mess there's a dining area, a pool table, billard table, table soccer, tv equipped with a damn good sound system and vcd and dvd players. The mess is also furnished with sofa's and is fully airconditioned..(heh so in other words i really have a good life)

So basically a normal day will be like i collect breakfeast from the cook house and just bring it to the mess dining area. The officers usually come in from 7.30am-11am for breakfeast and during breakfeast if they need any hot drinks like coffee tea mocha milo etc. ill make it for them with the machine of coz..haha. once their done im free all the way till after lunch. So i can either sleep or play pool or watch tv.Sometimes they dont even come in after lunch. Every now and then a few officers who will need their daily coffee or hot drink will come in for it and once in a while ill strike up a conversation with them. The busiest time of the day is after 6pm, this because its usually when they are done with work and all of them stay in camp..so they would come to watch tv or use the facilities provided and have their dinner there. The earliest i end my day can be at9.30 pm and the latest can be as late as 2.30 am.

Hey but everyonce in a while when they decide to have meetings and throw a function in the mess it gets very very busy and i always try my best to do things perfectly for these stuff. That because my usual day is so relaxed, so when there something big why not show others that given a big task u can handle it and u can do things right without any flaws and when that happens u feel good about yourself not because you proved it to someone but because u proved it to yourself.. Every now and then u should be able to help yourself remember the talents that you have in you ;)

But overall i still have the best life haha.. and i still complain so much about army..oh well someone has to do it rite?.
