They dress in many layers and deal with it...lol Did my BMQ over the PQ winter and actually didn't mind it so much. I honestly figured it would be worse then what it was. -33 was the lowest it went when I was there, and we were still being worked hard, constantly. Loved every minute of it...

That is absolutely amazing!!!

Canada Day for me and my family will involve some gardening, a few beverages(actually quite a few), a BBQ, and heading down to the waterfront to enjoy the fireworks. :cdn:   Happy Canada Day, everyone!!   :cdn:

Sitting at work, eating my lunch, and hoping the phone doesn't start ringing off the hook.

Auxtime, thanks for stating your opinion! As I am sure you know, alot of the other OD's here on base feel the same way as you about the program. Its not necessarily the PT the bothers them, but the uninformative and repetitive lectures. I have actually compiled a list of the pro's and con's...

Ah, i see now. To an extent I agree with. 2% is better then 0% though.... An McD's night for myself and my 3 kids(13, 10 and 7) costs about $24 and that is only if my oldest super sizes his angus burger combo. That McD's offers a 10% military discount as well. Also see if there are some...

Think of it this way: Is there another job out in civvie land, similar to what you are currently doing, where you can be making $60k after just a few years working there?? I highly doubt it, unless your into computers... Be grateful for what you are getting. Good pay, benefits, PLD, sea pay...

The PO2 here was talking about it yesterday, but I never got a chance to look up the CANFORGEN til this morning. Nice thing to wake up to at work...lol I'm happy we are getting a 2% pay raise. Its damn expensive raising kids on your own and every little bit that comes in makes it a little...

That very comment is what I am living right now, and I'm loving it!!! No worries, no complications, and if the bf ticks me off, I tell him to go to his own house! JJJ, I think you will find that life will be alot easier now at BMQ, and on your future courses. No need to have a high drama chick...

This was exactly what I read, but what didn't make sense is that the white one's are not even available on Logistik, why would we have to wait until the black one's are available? Wouldn't it make more sense to have the same "no logo's etc" rules apply to the black ones as they do for the white...

Not going to start a new thread, but I am loking for a reference to the colour of tshirt permitted to be worn with NCD's. I am aware we can wear the white one, but the storeman I saw yesterday was wearing a black tshirt and when i asked him about it, he said that there was a canforgen out...

Sitting on the computer, waiting to here those wonderful words...."Secure"...but it doesn't look like they are gonna come early today. It did for the newbie and a few instructors though... :'(

Thank you for the clarification, MJP and Dolphin_Hunter.

I still don't think you understand my question. As I posted yesterday, here is an exert from it: Then I went on to give an example of the appts....how is that to be interpreted as me feeling "entitled"? I do not feel entitled to getting the time off, but it's not like I am asking for time to...

So if you know what you are talking about, how about you discuss the FCP then...and what it is intended for....

I like this one the best, thus far.

I am not new to this either...been doing it for 14 yrs, but not as a CF member and not as a single parent in the CF. I was more or less looking for advice from those "in the know" and with experience when it comes to this type of situation and to verfiy that my interpretation of the FCP is...

I am sure the school and the dentist will be willing to do that... ::)

Since I already made this thread on single parenting, I figured I would throw in some discussion on the FCP( Family Care Plan). Recently in my section, my CoC said they were having some concerns that I was not utilizing my FCP as much as I should be in regards to my kids appts. According to...

AMEN, scoutfinch!!! For me being on the more "mature" side of the demograph, it definitely was a bit more of a struggle in some aspects, but I believe that by joining when i was older, I better prepared myself mentally for it. They helped me prepare physically. Running is definitely not my...
