Seriously? :o I thought that the Amprax "investigation" was absolute crap to begin with but this takes the cake. Who thought it was a good idea to hire a (former) snr bureaucrat to investigate other snr bureaucrats in the first place? Don't these people get taught even the most basic tenets of...

I notice they don't have "fixing the adjudication process" in there.....

Don't know when the board will sit (or has sat maybe), but there are two courses on the calendar right now. 14 Aug 12 - 21 Feb 13 and 21 Mar - 3 Oct 13. edit: spelling

Forget the 26 weeks timeline I am afraid. They only apply that when it suits them, and that's after they get all of the "required information" which sometimes includes reports from their Dr. Here in New Brunswick, the wait time to see the VAC Dr is approaching 1 year. However, the good news...

I did as Occam suggests and took this to SISIP. We are in a similar situation, this could make a huge dent on my mortgage, but given the current interest rates (and near to mid-future rates), I can stand to make a lot more investment wise. Instead of sticking it into an RRSP and letting it sit...

At least it's a predictable cycle  ::)

lol that's right, forgot about the "shortage" lol Funny how contracts run out way before they get resigned  ???

Try this one: 8455 21 921 0044 edit: forgot the first four  ;D

Have to agree with Vern. The official reasons given to justify the trips to GB are hogwash. These conferences have nothing to do with the administration of anything. I see just about all TD that goes through my unit, some is more useful than other to be sure. These however, are stretching it to...

Only a couple hundred off of 5%, their favorite number for injuries it seems. That's what I got for destroying my ankle and walking with a swagger for the rest of my life (and wearing out my left boot faster lol). Curious thing, just tried to get new boots through the system. Won't go for it...

Understood, deal with it all too often. The politicians and bureaucrats may tell us how much money we can spend on a particular project, they generally do not dictate how many of each chassis we buy with those funds. I have to argue that you MUST plan for support vehicles inside your initial...

ARV's? pffft Since when does it make sense to have recovery vehicles? We haven't had them all this time surely they aren't required now?  ::) Bloody hell when are the brass going to realize that we need support vehicles in the INITIAL purchase and not years after. Makes it pretty hard to do any...

Thanks Hurricane, but I am trying to sort it out before my people have to pack up everything and end up in PRETC unnecessarily. There are kids and houses involved down here and getting everything riled up because PRETC wants their bodies (but supposedly doesn't want them) 6-8 months before...

I received my offer on 1 Apr (no kidding lol, took the ET a bit to convince me it was real  ;D) and my posting message to the BTL came back for 29 Apr.

Ok, not quite sure where this fits, but this is as good a start as any. PRETC: What the heck are they up to up there? I've got the second CT/OT in as many months in front of me. Both are posted to PRETC even though their QL3's are months away (one in Sep, one in Jan). Both have solid offers of...

Snr bureaucrat.

You get your degree from any degree-granting institution. Some colleges should fit the bill. You would have to check with your BPSO to see if yours does. As for doing full-time distance learning; I have never heard of it. I do know a few CEOTP types that we doing full-time distance learning...

I agree wholeheartedly on the "do not call the 1-800" recommendation. If you have the option, I find dealing with the VAC offices on base so much superior, and if you are lucky you can often speak directly with your case manager. I spoke with the 1-800 line about a year ago for the last time...

Don't even make jokes like that. Someone else will remember and think it's a good idea  :facepalm: What a waste of time and effort that was.  :warstory: Going through maint vehicle files in 1 Svc, I didn't find too many files having anything to do with anywhere in Africa.

Theodolite Pro ($3.99) is the cat's pajamas. (though I am told that certain most instructors at the Arty school do not care for it  :P) Wook
