Civi Says ... Defence Do

I thought I might start this off pretty light, don’t want to go and shock you all into submission just yet.  There have been a few articles in the papers lately about defence and even the possible attainment of more serving members to Darwin (that was posted on the Dfof Page).  The amount of stupid things and reasons people put to this “travesty”  ...  ppfftt get nicked ... was some of the funniest yet disturbing things i have read.

So this brings me to my first ever post ..... Stupid ridiculous things uninformed Civilians say to Defence ....

1. We get free housing .... UM NO but the NT Police force do. We do get subsidised housing that is ment to equate to 50% of the Market rent (calculated as an average across AU)
2.  We get discounted Power and utility bills ... UM NO but we can get a defender discount from Telstra of $10 off per month of a bundle.
3. We get paid huge $$ for wages ... See now this one pisses me off the most because its pittance. If it wasn’t for Service allowance it would be below min wage.
4. In response to more defence in Darwin this is on the thread : Oh! The will probably get their housing andland from Housing Commission. Thats why no-one can buy their own houses anymore, sell it 2 Defence Dept.  ..... IM SORRY WTF ?????

These are just a few .... IM sure there are many more feel free to post them below in the comments section
