BMTC #2: My Manager, PTE Leonard Teo
Wednesday, 18 June 2008
So now to the second part, introducing my must-blog bed buddy cum my manager (cuz he made me famous)
At the first sight, he was a very nice person, full of manners and sociable. He was your typical nice guy. During the confinement week, he was always ready to help (as in READY to help, meaning: I'll help if you ask me to..). Then I also found out that he had a girlfriend (in fact, many of my platoon mates are attached. My section alone had 7/13, or 5/11 excluding those posted out.). The greatest thing was that they were together for 5 years!! It was like a record setter for our company! (until recently I heard that there's one 6 plus years from platoon 1). The girl is so blessed with this nice guy...
Until that day when he started my "Island Best" name-calling. It seemed like a drug to him that he must say it everyday every moment possible. Together with his quick wits (or twisted thinking) and my section's "Combat Medic", they would come out with funny ideas to describe my life, as they perceived it. Ideas like having a pull-up bar at home, to ridiculous ones like having a pull-up bar on a fighter plane and I'll power it by pulling as many and as fast as I can. Knowing that I want to be posted to Officer Cadet School (OCS), he would every morning greet me as though I am an officer already. He was very persistent with it, and kept saying that Army needs someone like me. He even signed me up for Air Force during a talk, and gave me the name "Thomas Brian".
Here comes his "bastard" part: As he got more and more used to me being an officer, abet I'm not even posted to OCS, he would always encourage me to greet the company officers and sergeants. The troublesome part was that he would rally people to ask me to do "my job". Under the pressure, I bent in. I got so used to it as well, and when there came an opportunity to greet our school's Commanding Officer, I got the entire company, even our Officer Commanding Capt Roger Chen, into attention and greeted him. Afterwards, My beloved Manager got even more daring and forcefully encouraged me to greet our commanders. There were a few times when I got tired of greeting, and he pulled me up and made me do it. I still recalled the worst one, where he pulled me up, called our company to attention, and sat down immediately, leaving me there to greet our commander.
There was still another area that he would be a "bastard", that is he would keep volunteering me to do things, or just make me do things, for the "sake of my OCS". He would bring my kindness to another level. When I would fill up the bottles for my section mates when I felt like it, he would make me do when I don't feel like it.
One more area: He made a song out of the song I would usually sing during our route march, which is "When the whistle blow". Goes like this:
C.P.T.1 He does it at home. Early in the morning, He washes his clothes. What is his name? Thomas Brian! And he is the best In Pulau Tekong. So echo~ echo out loud ya! Thomas Brian marching down the road ya! So echo~ echo out loud ya! Thomas Brian never let you down ya!
Even with all his "flaws", I would say I look up to him many times. When he helped people, he did so willingly, where I would grumble to myself, suck thumb and just do them. His "welfare" also surprises my platoon. When he was the I/C, where many would just leave the platoon in "at ease" position (of which we still cannot move in the file), he would command us to be at ease (meaning: just do whatever you want, within the file); where many will require the platoon to assemble in standing position, he would ask us to sit down in a file. His quick wits surprises us. There was once when our sergeant asked him to call his man (which was us) to assemble faster, he did as he was told, and without missing a beat gave us the permission to be at ease. There are a lot more things I looked up to him for, but it'll be too long to add..
By the way, he's damn strong and a professional fighter. In an weight category last year for Singapore "Sanshou" (something like kickboxing, managed by some organization), he defeated many opponents older than him! He had even made an "Ang Moh" (meaning: Caucasian) heavier than him "tap out" (meaning: admit defeat) in another friendly. I had a few friendlies with him, but was overpowered in just a instant. My Taekwondo skills were no match for his speed and flexibility, having learnt Muay Thai, grappling and locking. After a kick, I would get into his range for him to grapple me. Of course, not wanting to give up just like that, I struggled many times, finally relenting to his strength. To add, he got bronze for that Open Category tournament...
I was really blessed to have him as my bed buddy, my friend, and my Manager..
