I can’t express this morale thing well. I always have trouble discussing more complicated matters but I blogged about it anyway. And yeah, it’s about national service so if you hate that topic, look at some YouTube videos instead.
We worked on forced morale. I tell you most of my friends all have rather low morale. We work for long hours, rest for long hours and our superiors picked on faults that we made that could have been over-looked in a commercial organization. I think if we could attain higher morale, we would perhaps be more responsible and organized.
We were made to pretend we are high in morale when we are not. The age-old psycho-ing just didn’t work for me. I know how it suppose to work, you get a bunch of people to believe they’re high a morale and they pretty much go into the high morale mode for the moment. It works like yawning you know, you see one guy with high morale and you sort of grew more encouraged. And then the next person see an increase in morale from you and just follows suit.
It probably works for some. But I just don’t get it totally. Am I supposed to fall into this trick and pretend to be excited over my job when I truly just ain’t that great? I felt no superiors really understand what I want. Is it just me who is having this feeling? Or does everyone kinda felt the same way but played along anyway?
