It is 0045 hrs 10 Jul 09, and I am in the midst of intake. Myself and CI Graham Siddall have been tasked to do barrack supervision. It begun at 1700 hrs on 9 Jul 09, and now we are waiting to be called back to count the last group of cadets who come in around 0230 hrs. So, many of us have been on duty since 0800 hrs 09 Jul 09 and when we are done duty it will be close to 0400 hrs 10 Jul 09 almost 24 hours later.
Barrack supervision is something where we ensure the cadets are behaving themselves. This evening we have had washers losing water on electrical cords, cadets being assigned to incorrect rooms, and watching cadets polish their boots.
So, over 100 cadets will land here in a couple hours, and we will have to count and ensure they are all to bed, hopefully will avoiding waking the others. Luckily I am off all day on Saturday. Saturday night is our 70s and 80s party. Sunday is my first duty as a Unit Human Rights Advisor (UHRA) dealing with harassment and abuse complaints...
These are the days that we sure earn our wage!
