    SISIP LTD Payment Rant

    Teager, You are right.  It is what it its, and Reservists get it even worse.  Us RegF are paid at our Rate of Pay on Release, not time of Injury.  Which could be argued as a form of Discrimination? Good luck with that though. I wish you all the best in navigating this nightmare. I was unaware...

    Hearing Loss Appeal to VAB

    Here's some friendly advice. If you can afford it somehow.  Get your own lawyer.  Do not rely on the BPA Lawyer.  Mine must have been last in her class at law school and just graduated.  I lost my appeal and due to other health issues I missed my appeal of the appeal window. (but that's OK, my...

    SISIP LTD Payment Rant

    I posted this on my facebook page which started a nice little debate/info session.  Seems not a lot of people new about this.  So I think I'll post it here too for FYI and to stir a bigger pot  ;D Yep, the Federal Gov't actually seems to make a profit.

    Medical Release ( merged )

    Difference between 3a and 3b release boils down this way.  After being assigned your MEL's from DMED POL your file goes to the AR(MEL) board at DMCA.  That board at the career shop decides what to do with you.  If you are being released medically they must decide 1. if you are forever unfit...

    Medical Technician ( Med Tech )

    Mods can you please pin this, I'm getting tired of repeating myself and I'm sure others are as well.  Now I can't speak for all Med Techs, but generally if you're working at a CDU it's like this. 0700hrs Arrive for work and change into work dress 0715hrs, quick pow pow with the Master...

    Friendship and comradeship in bmq?

    Proud_Newfoundlander, Got some news for you, You will have trouble makers, quiet shy people who wont say boo.  There will be bullies, leaders, followers, cowards, and crybabies, and you'll all have to deal with and learn to work with one another. Have fun, and good luck.  Hope to see you on...

    Deaf in the military

    Watched the video, he makes a compelling, and possibly "Legal" Argument.  However, the way our laws and I do believe the US laws are written the same way with regards to deployability makes the case moot. Until UoS is changed/revoked however.  Not going to happen here.  Heard the story at least...

    Friendship and comradeship in bmq?

    6 1/2 years ago I reported in to CFLRS for BMQ.  I was assigned to my plt and sent to a floor in the green sector.  We started off with a little over 80 people on our course.  While at first we all just sort of found a bunk and flopped, we were eventually split up into alphabetical order, and...

    Medical Release - CIC Officer

    quadrapiper, An interesting statement about Unlimited Liability.  I believe that for COATS Unlimited Liability will still apply because of the nature of their original enlistment.  I don't think CIC officers are expected to give up their lives for Queen and Country, but that info is outside my...

    Secondary Education

    Mods, Can we merge this and the OP's other post in this forum and move it all to recruiting where it belongs?  Muscles: Short version: Not a chance. If you want to go that route, go officer from the start and do ROTP.  Otherwise to access UTPNCMP you need min 5 years in, QL5 qualified...

    Recruiting Process/Medical Standard questions.

    Coyote, Some answers for you: 1.  It may take 3 days, it may take 3 months, it may take 3 years.  Sorry.  There is no way to tell.  When I was working recruiting I saw all of those.  We had some applicants who started their process on Monday and were on their way to Basic that weekend.  Now...

    Transfering from Communications Reserve to Medical Technician (Reg) by NCM SEP

    Check with your local Recruiting Office first to check on the status first and make sure that it is open.  While once there where more SEP positions then regular through the front door ones, that has changed.  With the end of the Afghan mission our TO&E was changed and miraculously we are no...

    Medical Release - CIC Officer

    Universality of Service does not apply to COATS or the CIC as they are not required to operationally deploy. Now for the difference; COATS are positions created to support the Cadet movement that are filled by PRES and RegF members, these members do not need to meet the normal CF Medical...

    Heading to BMOQ - Medic Alert question

    I can't remember what the actual policy is, I'm sure it's the plain chain one, just not sure if it's the bracelet or necklace. However, from an operational POV and experience do this so us Medical people CAN'T miss it. Order the chain, take the tag off the chain and loop it onto your ID disk...

    Ahh, You found it before I did.  I knew it was somewhere.  Released for 3 days and I'm already getting rusty.  I'm going to miss my Bookmarks for posts like this (yes I know I should've exported them but I forgot  :facepalm: ) In my case, CFMSS or whatever it's called this year (Medical School...

    EI question for spouse after posting.

    It's not a problem, my wife has had to do it three times.  You just tick off the I left because my husband had to move for employment box, go into the penalty box and when you come out $$ gets deposited. Now saying that, all the other regs & rules apply wrt having to look for work etc.. while...

    Ql3 and Married

    It can be done.  I did it.  There are a few catches though; 1.  You have to be posted to your training base (or any base for that fact) for greater then 12 months to have your move restriction lifted. 2.  You will have to write a memo to your CM through the CoC of your school to get the...
