RAF clerks!!!!!

[mattrlc]

Ive been on tour now for 2 months, and still im paying food and digs and getting no LSA, numerous occasions ive been to the pay office to speak to them about it, and always greated by the same response. "Ill look into it" now apparantly my arrivals chit must have gone missing when I came to the Island. Is there anyway around dealing with these monkeys, I dont think my chief clerk at Regt. can do anything either. Id try take it higher but ive never seen an RAO there, would have been nice too see the extra beer tokens over xmas too. rant over.

[buryfc66]

Where are you?

I'm guessing Falklands or Cyprus, RAF eh? nuff said

 

[mattrlc]

yeah the falklands. craphole of a place it doth be too

 

[buryfc66]

yeah the falklands. craphole of a place it doth be too

You have my sympathy.

 

[mattrlc]

when this is sorted out, will it automatically be backdated to the day I arrived or will It be something else to chase up?

 

[buryfc66]

Should be backdated to the day you arrived, just keep in the clerks faces till it's sorted.

 

[acrab!]

Did you clear from your parent unit in the uk or bfg first, as that causes most problems with us crab types! Why not just see the army clerk or the snco?

yeah cleared from there, that shouldnt be an issue though, I travelled with someone from the same unit to the same place on the same day doing the same job and his was sorted straight away, Ive tried speaking to the seniors, they pass it back down the chain though for the crabs to deal with.

 

[PlasticMatron]

Just a suggestion......but.........I'd speak with the WO FISU (Army) or OC PSF if you feel that you are not getting the service you should be getting from PSF Flt.

 

[Spanner]

You have to stalk them, hound them and constantly remind them to do stuff - give me a decent Army admin office anyday! Or alternatively, OC PSF or OC Admin if you're really feeling cheesed off, with a copy to the email to your OC/Pl/Flt Comd.

 

[devexwarrior]

Put a redress into your CoC. Your CO is Legally obliged to investigate it and offer you a resolution within 28 days. I have done this twice for pay issues and both were sorted within 24 hours.

 

[Infiltrator]

As a Crab, I feel well placed to deal with this problem!

First things first, don't think you are on your own, we hate adminers nearly as much as we hate movers!

Anyway, back to your problem. Who have you so far spoken to? If it's one of the PD clerks, then simply go and have a chat with the JNCO. He should square away the issue for you. If that doesn't work, simply ask to speak to the Chief Clerk, and he will sort it out.

However, I must say that having spent 5 months in Basra with Army SPS running the admin side, I don't think that the RAF have the monopoly of cocks in the admin offices! A bigger bunch of tossers I could not have met!

Have you ever thought that they just might not like you?

One of the crab clerks from my unit is currently detached to FI. He is completely and utterly incompetent, as are his peers in the admin office. It would have been considered a real blessing when he was deployed, were it not for the fact he is marginally less mongish than the other fool. However, I do not blame him for being a mong. I blame his chain of command for allowing him to be a mong. The Cpl, who is supposed to supervise him and his mong colleague, is also an incompetent fcukwit, but I don't blame her nor do I blame the SNCO Chief Clerk, I consider the OC to be at fault as he is ultimately in command, but alas he too is a complete fcukwit.

Haha, reminds me of the time I had to work with a bunch of Army Feckwits in Basra. They were supposed to be Techies, but couldnt change a feckin 16/24 KW Genny faulty fuel gauge between them. And I mean between 7.......yes SEVEN of them lol. That was a full screw who had just been told he was getting his third, 3 lance jacks and 3 sprogs. I was feckin embarrassed for them. What made me really laugh, was that every single one of them said they wanted to transfer to the RAF LMFAO !!!! They wouldnt even pass the RAF AST, and if they did it certainly wouldnt have been for a Techie trade.
Now thinking about it, are all the RAF feckwit clerks at your place, EX Army Techies ??? Would explain alot lol
This is not a Wah or a wind up or a lame defence of RAF Clerks. What it is, is a note that, EVERY single Service has Feckwits, I am confident however, that the Army have more than most !!!!

More bodies = more feckwits, not a higher proportion, Crabs being the baby service should have had a clean sheet but seem to have inherited the mongness from its parents. No mhigher percentage of mongs just more of them!

or alternatively (and you may not have), don't just gaff off the arrivals process. Fill out the yellow form and hand it in. Watch pay get sorted......

Do you have access to JPA?

First you can check on your self service to see where your current move and track location is and what date you were arrived there.

Next, submit a query asking why you're not getting LSA and still paying DFC etc using the I-Support, this will result in the JPAC tasking your local HR to sort the matter out.

 

[Bat_Crab]

Don't get me started on RAF clerks and Admin Sec officers. Short answer get your Boss to speak to them on your behalf; nearly 1 in 4 of RAF personnel are officers, and aircrew officers at that - if you don't have a commission or drink with them* they don't care.

*You would have to be very desperate to spend a night on the pop with an adminer.
