Try to remember that this trip for the ship is just another day at their job. When they're away from home port, guys want to sightsee and visit the places they go to, just like anyone else would ... also keeping in mind that they have all kinds of "official" functions they have to attend or...

I can't say for 100% certainty, cause I'm not the person that gives job offers and loads people on courses, but knowing in general how far in advance we load BMQ's and BMOQ's, I highly doubt anyone on the next NOAB would be on the BMOQ two weeks later ... but you can always hope, I've been wrong...

Ankhmor: Seeing as you are here in Toronto, I want you to come in and see the PO1 in charge of the front desk reception. He will be MORE than happy to discuss with you WW3, Conscription, Deployments, Service, Honor, Duty, Specialization and anything else you'd like. He will be also more than...

We will NOT "just rely on what we've been told" ... we do a Criminal Record check and we DO find out about youth records (they are NEVER completely "closed") ... the only way to completely remove a record is to obtain a pardon. HOWEVER, having said that, everything depends on the offence, how...

WELL, if Vern's coming from an hour away ... as long as I'm not working, I'll be there!

Just thought I'd point out that none of these are new issues. When I was class B 10 years ago, they hummed and hawed about renewing my contract after the intial 3 years was up, FINALLY telling me I was going to still be employed on the 21st or 22nd of March! That schmozzle was one of several...

Nah ... The Government LOVES just giving away money for free ... you'll be fine, just quit when you're done school. {sarcasm intended} Of COURSE there will be consequences ... at the VERY least you will have to pay back tuition, living expenses etc. At WORST, you'll have to remain in the Forces...

In my experience, I would suggest bow tie all day (therefore foregoing the need to keep track of headdress all day long) instead of the issued tie. It is a ceremonial occasion and therefore #2 order of dress would be appropriate (though traditionalists will argue that the #2 order should not be...

If you REALLY want to take care of it, go to credit counselling. Once you have a plan and an agreement from your creditors to take payments on your debt, and you've actually made a couple of payments, you may be allowed to continue your application process. Otis

As a Recruiter, I'm perfectly comfortable when someone walks in and says, "I want to work with electronics" or, "I want to work on a ship" ... what I can't stand is: "I wanna be in the Army." Well, what do you want to do? "I want to be in the Army" OK ... what do you actually like to do...

I'll never tell!  :-X (But the Supply Chief on the VDQ IS a very good friend of mine)  8)

Hey Mark, Congratulations, I'm very proud of you for sticking it out ... BZ (which is Military talk for 'good job') However, I would like to take this EXCELLENT opportunity to let everyone know (using your case, if you don't mind) that Merit listing is NOT the last step! You still have to be...

Yes, OR you can go in to your RC and they should provide you with an 'extension' page to the form.

Answer 1. Salty or sweet? Sweet, definitely 2. Roast ham or roast beef or roast chicken or roast turkey or roast pork or roast lamb? Roast Chicken or Roast Turkey (I'm partial to poultry) 3. What are your favourite restaurants?   I can't seem to pass up on Mr. Sub when it's available 4...

I identify myself as Navy first, Supply second (but then again, I've had several Army types tell me that Navy Supply Techs don't really belong to the Log branch either, because we're NAVY ... so I guess nobody really wants us Salty Bin rats) :(

You will not get in to the Forces without references. We need SOMEONE to act as a character reference for you. We can't do anything about your friends being anti-war, but if they won't act as character references for you, you're going to have to find SOMEONE who will. We recommend professionals...

By "well seasoned" are you saying that I'm spicy or pickled?? :D

Believe it or not, from what I've seen around here, it's NOT just Gen Y that has a problem with these simple rules ... quite a few older people come in that have no idea how to approach a job interview. And, in defence of the younger people, I have seen quite a few of them come in wearing suits...

According to the Sgt sitting beside me who just came here from teaching BMQ, it depends on where you're from whether they 'send' you home or just allow you to head home for the holidays before reporting to your next course. For example, if you're from Ontario and your next course is in Borden...
