Ah, makes sense. ⚔️

You may be right... perhaps I should just leave it as a should have/ could have

Agreed, I will talk to the Dr. and if I decide to pull the trigger, I might work with a trainer to really strengthen the area. I Hike and hunt with a heavy load, 50-70lbs plus rifle sometimes and the back gets achy but nothing serious, but every year or two I lift something wrong and throw it...

My earnings fluctuate based on a number of factors and a good chunk of it is bonuses but if you break my salary down I make $85-$95/ hour. But I do also get 5 weeks of vacation time. At the end of the day, it isn't about the money for me, I would honestly do it for free. I hated school, not...

Does anyone know who/ how I would contact Comox to book an appointment at stores? I was very poorly kitted out when I joined the Rangers and going to Esquimalt is a big trip, since I am in Nanaimo and go to Campbell River regularly, I was hoping I could just book in at CFB Comox and get the...
