    Occasional Cannabis Oil Use For Sleep (Medical Exam)

    You can use it up until you get to BMQ. You can use it on weekends you leave CFLRS and stay in a hotel or go home. There is no drug testing. It is on the honour system. But if you don't have to use it, that's up to you.

    Occasional Cannabis Oil Use For Sleep (Medical Exam)

    Well, to be fair, coke is not legal, the way cannabis is... I kinda wish I had been staff on that course, just to see that discovery LOL

    Occasional Cannabis Oil Use For Sleep (Medical Exam)

    Using cannabis (medically or recreationally) will not be allowed at BMQ, at least not while at CFLRS. They go through your bags when you arrive for BMQ and confiscate anything considered contraband. You will get it back at the end of the course.

    Still awaiting Enrollment - LogO

    When you are working with and surrounded by a bunch of 18-20 years olds, sometimes you forget you aren't also 20. 3 day hangovers are not fun anymore, and it takes so long to bounce back.

    Still awaiting Enrollment - LogO

    For 3. Just remember that you are 36 and not 18. Don't compare yourself to the 18 years olds on your courses.

    BMQ possibly of failing due to fitness?

    Polio is OK. OP had pneumonia. Not the same P condition. Silent P's are a concern. /s

    Benefits for Army Class A Reserve Officers

    awesome! Thank you! I tried googling the clinic but couldn't see the street names like you mentioned. It's always either the names or the layout of the streets.

    BMQ possibly of failing due to fitness?

    It is more likely you would start by being sent to warrior platoon or whatever it is called these days, and given some time to work on your fitness. It's not a great solution, but it is better than being kicked out 3 weeks in.

    Benefits for Army Class A Reserve Officers

    I can't afford Vancouver LOL even with PMQs! I'm just shocked that they have PMQs...if I were to look on the map, what part of the city are the Qs in? As for units needing people, I've looked on EMAA, no position for me in Vancouver until I get promoted twice more. Sigh.

    FSA (Financial Service Administrator)

    Emergencies only seem to happen on a Friday, and usually right after the unit has gone down to minimum staffing because nothing was going on. Suddenly there will be a DART spool up, or a short notice tasking. When I was in a clinic (clearly not a FSA), we often got member welfare checks...

    Pre-security and reliability and file closure

    How did the closed application waste a year and a half of your potential career? It's a POTENTIAL career - you are NOT guaranteed a job offer just for applying. You don't know why they closed your file, and you didn't think to check on your application for 18 months. There is no recourse because...

    Reserve Cook trades training time

    The part time option for courses is almost exclusively reserved for BMQ/BMOQ. Trade courses tend to be full time, over the summer, to accommodate university schedules.

    what to bring and what not to bring?

    It just has to be presentable. If you like to wear kilts, or you dress all in black/goth inspired, or you like sparkly bedazzled things (you might get some ribbing about this), that is fine. But just pretend, for business casual, that you are having a meeting with a business manager to pitch an...

    Which war are you referring to?

    Enrolling as an older individual.

    The mob box is also not centered on anything! The lines from the cinderblock wall, the bed, the window... are they trying to make the staffs' heads explode???

    Enrolling as an older individual.

    As long as you can hear your morning wake up alarm through them, as well as any fire alarms.

    Enrolling as an older individual.

    At BMQ? There are no double rooms? the single rooms in the blue sector are not supposed to have their doors locked at night so staff can do their wellness checks. I wasn't in the blue sector long enough to remember if they opened every door or if it was just a threat.

    Enrolling as an older individual.

    Also frowned upon but to a lesser degree. If your entire platoon is sleeping in their sheets and you are the only one that is too hot, the excuse may or may not work.
