    Tim Hortons hiking prices on coffee, bagels

    Agreed.  And I have pumped 100 bucks into a tank before, but I think that was the limit for the pump - so that pretty much rules out any set number across the board.  It's all a friggen mystery.  I guess whatever is faster, more efficient for the consumer is best.  Big businesses do make the...

    Tim Hortons hiking prices on coffee, bagels

    Now for my few cents worth...... 1)  Is there still a slight savings if you bring your own cup for a refill?  If so (and considering the "green attitude we're being force fed"), perhaps it would be a good way to offset the raise in price - while also doing your part for the environment.  Why TH...

    Boot, General Purpose (Mk III acting/interim replacement)

    Woo hoo <commence self pat on back> Goodbye old boots - we'll miss you.  This is so going to open up the flood gates on pro/con Mark 3s.  Let me be the first (in this thread anyway), no matter what studies and tests have said, the Mark 3s were ok for me.  RIP Mark 3. :salute: Bin

    Boot, General Purpose (Mk III acting/interim replacement)

    Sorry to bring an old thread back to life - it's summer and I noticed the forums are a bit quiet.  Anyway, not that this is anything official but I went to Supply to swap out some Mark 3s and since my size were not on the shelf - I was then sized for the GP Cbt boots to be ordered in for me. ...

    CFTDTI

    Thanks for the CFTDTI. Was just wondering if anyone had info on the URLs out of curiosity.  Won't lose any sleep without an answer.  Besides, I'm sick of sending e-mails and not getting responses. If a Helpdesk doesn't provide help, shouldn't they change their name to just "Desk"?? Bin

    291 changes from signal to intel????

    I heard that 291 was moving away from CFSCE because the school (CFSCE) belonged to the Army now and 291 wanted no Army affiliation - ok not really, just an inside dig from a 215 to a 291.  ;D Insert all your spec pay bragging comments below - hardy har har. Bin

    civi jobs in the after life

    ZBM2 - Not that I have to tell anyone with your experience about this - but it's prob best to put the word out for others reading this thread.  The CF has lots of programs for those leaving us.  Some of us are a little rusty on the whole resume and interview front - so it's best to beef up...

    CFTDTI

    Firstly, I'd like to say that I feel I've looked around enough and have had no luck. I get a Zero Sized reply when trying to open the document here I'm looking for a link to the CFTDTI - that works.  Anybody know anything about this? As well, since the change over to the forces.gc.ca model...

    My Story

    I don't get it.  So you get a little attitude for showing up early and this makes the CPO think you enjoy making him look bad?  Sounds like a bit of a funny character myself.  Especially when you are still a "greasy civi". Timings in the military are a silly thing as you may soon find out. ...

    Release from Res Contract & Forces

    Come on guys - I said I read the QR&Os and CFAOs on the subject.  There's no need to quote something I've already read. This real question was has anyone had real experience with this type of situation- more than a request for sending me in the right direction. Bin

    Release from Res Contract & Forces

    Is there an echo in here?  JK Thanks - all great info.  Like many things - seems somewhat open to interpretation. As I said, "this is both a break of contract and release from the Forces".  I'll do my best to look into the best way to move along.  I was thinking of the annual days of leave as...

    Release from Res Contract & Forces

    I've done a few searches and turned up nothing which is directly related to my question. I've also searched through the QR&O's and CFAO's to no solid conclusion. Does anyone have first hand experience with the Release of a Res Member on a Class B Contract?  I found the format I'm looking for...

    Is it a good idea for a married couple to have the same trade?

    I'm sure this will be covered by someone with more experience BUT I'm pretty sure the 2 are posted separately meaning, same Base, just not exactly same part of a unit due to conflict of interest issues. You wouldn't want to be working for hubby if he was the troop Warrant - that's for sure. ...

    Aaron "Texas Ranger" Walker - AKA - DONALD AARON WALKER

    Anyone know the whereabouts, or contact info for this guy named in subject line? Description - About 6ft, 220lbs (probably 240 by now), shaggy blonde hair - needed a haircut back then - probably still needs one now, he spent a few years up in Pet with Sigs (97-01??).  Famous quotes include...

    Ruggedized, portable field printers...

    FYI - As part of a recent Withdrawl Order from Ottawa - the POS green TCCCS printers (aka - PDT-P) should now be gonzo.  If you have them at your unit - someone is not doing their job......or hasn't heard the word I suppose (to be fair).  They are non-compliant, obsolete, whatever.....with...

    civi jobs in the after life

    IMHO - The military doesn't train you for the after life - that's up to you.  There are tons of opportunities out there though to use programs to help pay for non-mil stuff, but you have to put the time/effort into them.  I used to joke too about the only job you'll be qualified for it...

    Common mistakes that we "commonly" make

    Ok - so we all make little mistakes.  This post is not to make fun of those of us who make them (none of us are perfect.....yet).  I just wanted to bring up a few common "trade related" misconceptions/errors we have about equipment, terms, whatever.  So hey - join in and learn something that you...

    Posted

    :blotto:  Did they really use the word "quarantined"? If so, that would be pretty funny.  Well, at least to me it would. Kinda reminds me of a quote a co-worker once used.  Funny only if one reads it correctly.  "The Army -  There's no life.  Like it." I still snicker whenever I say it to...

    Traditional Beret Colours and thoughts on the tan beret?

    Spotted a Tan Beret on base today - hence the searching out of this thread.  Guess this person must be part of the first wave of unit members. I like beret (didn't get a view of the cap badge).  They're a nice change.  Sometimes I look at other countries and wish we had a little less...

    CFSCE is great for SigOps

    Wow.  I can honestly say that I've never heard anyone say anything quite like that about CFSCE.  But that doesn't surprise me as it's easier to complain than to praise.  One time I called a business to report some excellent service that I received and they didn't know what to do or who I should...
