    The real reason you're broke

    what a great article! I am driving a POS right now, but I don't have to make payments on it. Was going to give myself a year of living here with the kids and see how my budget works out then look into buying a truck since the little neon is too small for the kids, myself and the dog. Thx for...

    NEIP...what is your opinion?

    I'm with you on that SoF!! I guess they are in the midsts of "renovating" NEIP due to the many complaints received not only by the newbies but by course instructors too. Hopefully it changes soon for the next batch of sailors.

    HMCS Saskatoon - drug use trials

    We already received word of random testing at the school, so this should be quite interesting. I also know the two OD's in question. One of them is not ever at CFFSE anymore...he is out east. They were both under investigation for sometime though.

    HMCS Saskatoon - drug use trials

    NEIP seems to be a wast coast program for now since we are the primary QL3 training base. Not that NEIP stops anyone from doing, selling or even over dosing on drugs...not sure how effective it is though. I found it quite a waste of time, but I am sure that for some, it is a great prelude to...

    HMCS Saskatoon - drug use trials

    Maybe they can start focusing on the stuff going on in the shacks for a bit.... Might help to set a better example by starting to enforce the CF's laws right from the moment they step foot into the shacks.

    CFHA Residential Housing Unit (RHU)-old PMQ [MERGED]

    My ex and I just sold out house in NS too. He is now living in Windsor Park Apts (Hfx, NS) and the kids, pets and I are in a PMQ in Work Point (Vic, BC). Only been in the Q for a week and already I miss owning my own house. We were lucky and I got priority for a 4bdrm, so we actually had less...

    I haven't been on in a long time but i want to say thanks to ArmyVern and Airmich for the suggestion of exchanging the pants for a longer leg...OMG do they feel better!! I am tempted to snag myself a pair of men's to see the difference there too.

    NEIP...what is your opinion?

    That is exactly why one of my instructors took it...so that they didn't have to stand any base duty watches. Must be nice. Regardless, tomorrow is my last day on this ridiculous program and I am going to make darn sure my thoughts and suggestions get put into the critique.

    BMQ Schedules

    Yes, there are usually a couple BMQ courses starting every week. I wouldn't worry about that right now though. When they have a space for you, they will call you with an offer.

    NEIP...what is your opinion?

    Actually my instructors are also NEIP "babysitters" so they are well aware of it...but still not willing to budge. They think the program is wonderful....maybe they should do three months of it first. I will also toss in that the first two weeks I was on NEIP, we had 2 lecture nights that were...

    Navy doing trials on new clothing???

    The S&P's are definitely more professional looking while us sailors are out in the public. They are very comfortable, but a pain to have to dry clean every time you spill something on them. The NCD's give us ladies major wedgies, well maybe not every one, but every one I have spoken to about...

    I know...just his timing really sucks. It was a distraction before, but now I have pushed it to the back of my mind and am even more focused on my studies.

    Thanks for the advice, everyone! I really appreciated it. I am not worried about being a single parent since I was one before I met my soon to be ex, but being one in the CF has me a little tweaked. St Michael's Medical Team, as I said in my first post, due to circumstances beyond my control...

    Failed Relationships after Deployments - Sound OFF!

    Wesley, my sincerest regards. I know your pain....to an extent. I was told two days before my birthday (mar22nd) that my husband wanted a divorce. Still haven't got a reason out of him. I am on one coast and he is on the other with the kids, and I am on course, so all of it compounded real...

    CF member as a single parent-on course, deployed ect... [MERGED]

    I was curious if there were any single parents on here. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I will be venturing into this unknown land known as single parenting as a member of the CF. I am looking for pointers and such that will assist with the transition for me. My kids are 12, 9 and 6...

    NEIP...what is your opinion?

    FTSO, during my first two weeks of NEIP, both mondays were filled with "bitch" sessions. We, as NEIP participants, were asked to make suggestions as to content and what we liked and disliked. So far, almost 2 months later, nothing has changed. I am now on course and moving into a very...
