Moonlighting and G**bet while in NS(GOT CHARGED)

Hey guys been a long while ive not dealt with this, and im here to share my experience.

I, ORDed back in 2025 got court martialed AFTER ord for multiple offences(from title).

HOW I GOT CAUGHT:

3 months before i ORDed i was called up for an investigation(at one of the MP camps)

10am-6+pm locked in a investigation room. All my details of such sites(gamba) and different apps that i used to moonlight on.

I had 3 phones on my possession, all 3 got confiscated. one was a brand new phone, no crime committed on that new phone BUT for a video evidence that i was gambling illegally.

(Which was sent from my other phones)

In that 3 months before ORD, i was in and out of their investigation room. Giving info and such.

I only got to know my court martial date, 7 months after i ORDed.(so it debunks the myth that you CAN still get charged way after ORD)

What i got charged for:

3x for RGA(remote gambling act, for 3 sites wagered over millions(i guess))

1x for moonlighting(Working for foodp***** total earnings 1.xK)

DAY OF COURT MARTIAL:

If you’re accused there is a holding cell and the stand for you to take in the charges. So you will just wait at the holding cell until your name will be called up.

When your name is called up, you walk out the holding are into the court room. You’re told to senang diri the whole moment while u receive your charges and sentencing.

Your Defending officer will probably talk to the prosecutor before the whole shabang, to come up with a proper punishment(DB/fine) for you. And genuinely you will just have to take that in.

Having a lawyer is fucking useless, so don’t bother as that will drag your whole case. (As of the other guy that was in the holding cell with me)

Just let your DO, settle your shit and hope your case ends fast, so you can pay the fine/serve your db ASAP.

The judge was pretty chill, high ranker obviously. Prosecutor wanted me to get fined a higher amount, but the judge knocked off 3-4k off my fine of 1X,XXX SGD

I had to explain that i HAD tried to apply for financial assistance in NS, but wasn’t able to get the approval due to the lack of documents and complications in my personal life. (This plays a part as there was a paper trial towards the case too)

I still got fined 5 figures, but it was lesser than the prosecutor wanted me to get fined for😂

I accepted the fine instead of getting DB, as i had many other things to settle outside in terms of my family and bills.

Obviously IF you cant afford to pay your fine, you HAVE to request to pay in instalments the same as normal courts.

Take away from this experience

dont gamble, addiction is a really horrible thing be it whatever

Dont work without permission(you can apply, see how dogshit your superiors are)

obviously dont keep incriminating shit in your phone at ALL times🙈

Update: grab delivery cyclist/ 6YOE

Ps peeps, had to remove the screenshot due to some threats and hate from people.

No matter what you work as, keep yourself healthy and happy. Wealth isn’t everything in life, but it does make it easier.

This subreddit honestly shows a really good divide between all the different sectors. AND how asshole-ish people can be thinking that they are better than you and that you’re working this/that.

Not all have the same opportunities/chances as what you guys are now. Im just thankful that I’m alive.

There is honestly no point for hate, we all should be supporting and helping each other. That is literally the point of this sub, for help each other see the income prospects for the future if you’re joining the industry.

Grab delivery cyclist/ 6YOE

60h+ weeks, 6 days a week 10h+ a day

Don’t get me wrong, its good money but its not easy money. Absolutely risking the shit out of myself out in the roads such.

Grueling and tiresome job, no insurance and stuff on myself. If i die, id die broke paying debt and such 😂

Its the only job that i can get to pay off my debt right now,(and honestly i cant find a job the past 2 years, higher nitec in engineering)

I am looking forward to upskilling to a private diploma next year, and hopefully to a degree.

Im genuinely sick of the uncertainty of grab, as the fares are actively falling every single month. Looking at the next monthly payslip, im seeing a 40% lesser due to less orders and less incentives/base fare.

At the very least stick closer to the kerb instead of being in the middle of the lane with the ass sticking out
