I only have 60 workdays left anyway.


What did you do? That is a pretty serious punishment, no?
There are no 'knowns'. There are thing we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together, and we then say well that's basically what we see as the situation, that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns. And each year, we discover a few more of those unknown unknowns.

I'm > 18 years old, male, have no two brothers who served in the army before me, am not half-way through university (which is kinda funny for an exception if you consider the highest equivalent of High School ends in year 13 and the average graduatee is 19 to 20 years old -- I don't think REALISM had anything to do with these exceptions), am not married, have no children, have never been in jail and I have a German ID.

Apparently that is enough for such a punishment.

Eh. Even social labour isn't as bad.

I have a regular 38.5 hour job, just that I'm entirely underpaid because I'm officially not an employee but rather an assistant. Sadly the organisations that employ us slaves always ignore that little difference and the government beauro doesn't care enough as that they'd do anything against it.

Ah, well, I could have hugged the mud, given up my illusion of free will and joined the army instead, but considering everyone knows that the army -- although no officials would publically verify it -- is full of nazis and trainees are generally treated like scum (by other trainees too -- unless you play along and give up your individuality and personality as a whole), that didn't seem like a good choice.
So I told them I had moral issues with putting bullets in other people's heads and participating in wars I don't support and they put me up for social duty.

Of course not all German soldiers are nazis and not every camp is full of fascists (oh, wait -- isn't the military per definition a hierarchic and thus fascist organisation? nevermind) and in fact the right-winged extremists make up only a small fraction of them, but I know my luck and judging by how (un)lucky my choice of service station turned out to be, I guess I'd have been tossed straight into a pit of "German Pitbulls".

I think I'd have gotten out of it if I had whacked off during muster and claimed I'm a compulsive wanker, but unzipping "Little Ashmo" and whipping it in public didn't exactly seem like a thing I'd want to do back then (in addition to the idea of facing a trial for public indecency).

I think military duty would at least have been more interesting -- plus I'd have gotten to fire some weaponry (so far the only gun I ever layed my hand on was an old BB rifle).
Then again, I still have my brains, and apart from my privates they're my single most important property to me.


Oh, and in case you though the draft as I described it wasn't already bad, I also temporary lost every right a soldier doesn't have -- including petitioning and the right not to lose parts of your body (in other words: even if a nuke was dropped on my workplace, I'd still have to serve at it) or whatever you'd call it in English.
I think I'm also already breaking the law by expressing my opinions regarding the service -- there's some section about not making the service look bad (now that really helps a lot if you're trying to complain about anything related to the service or your duty at all).

EDIT:
And now I've only got 59 work days left.
Eh. Feels like an eternity

Once you are finished with your slavery Ashmo, make sure to bitch like hell about it. I'd be fucking raging after that and I'd make sure to spread the shit around with a very large shovel. If you make enough noise you might be able to help. People shouldn't have to go through that crap.

Also, make sure you tear those assholes at your slave camp a new one when you get your freedom, though I'd probably be keying their cars and such already.

Masquerading as a friend. Silver nitrate. Pressure points. Privacy. Beautiful.

Well, Ashmo, if it all is as you write of it - I do hope you survive intact, sane, and in a position to move onto something less demeaning to you on so many levels. Karma may be some comfort. Making karma tangible within your lifetime even more so. :drunk:

Don't worry, the idea of spending the rest of my lifetime at my workplace (a mental clinic) is enough to keep me from even THINKING about loosing my sanity.
