  seriously speaking, u will acquire more skills as a senior technician.
  therefore making you more marketable or useful
  
  logistic officers in the RSAF get shifted around until they are jack of all trades, master of none. they pick up the mediocre theory of each system they get posted to and combine all the scraps of theory they have into a giant ball of bullcrap.
  
  how 'bout adding that they spend lots of time behind the computer and keep going for unecessary meetings.
  
  i would prefer that they get their basics right first.

  as an AEO, you acquire the fine art of forwarding emails and adding the words "pls action" or "me too" below Also you will gain the skill of creating beautiful multi-slide PowerPoint presentations......

  An airforce officer is very much like outside world assistant manager or higher...
  But airforce is different as outside world's MNC..
  Particularly one is mission based... the other one is money based...
  The mentality of airforce is very different 1...
  Generally, officer dont do any hands on on aircraft but they have the management skill. Junior officer are the bridge between top management to warrant officer where warrant officer control the rest of the men.

  in other words, f*cking useless.
  
  most of them don't even have management skills.
  
  i'm still waiting for the day where my warrant officer dishes out less theory and use more elbow grease.
  
  until then, they are all f*cking useless
