Jobs were filling up for my picks for the year. I picked 3, full, picked 3 more full.  The jobs left I had no interest in.  I was interested in only army and only trades/combat.  From when I applied to interview time all my job choices were full.  It came down to taking what remained or wait. ...

A dermatologist diagnose me with Rosacea.  Since i presented with a butterfly rash on my face (no my face isn't red or has a rash, you wouldn't know I have it unless I told you) he had 2 vials of blood drawn for to check for cancer.  He told me EXTREMELY unlikely.  But he had to test anyway...

The rumour mill is Combat Engineer selection should be soon now.  Anyone have a confirmed date? Thanks.

I remember reading the Charter Morsi had drawn up when he won the election.  My reaction to it was from one dictator to the next.  Some statistical data from pew if that's your thing. http://www.pewglobal.org/2013/05/16/egyptians-increasingly-glum/ Quickly looking through statistical data only...

Exactly, so the general public has nothing to worry about it.  The warrant and legal procedures stops the use of information from getting out of control.  Look at it from a official view.  You have a bomb scare, Some known terrorist name comes up.  You check the phone logs, another name comes...

Shocked?  Was anyone shocked at the Snowden revelation or wikileaks? or Egypt on the brink of presidency failure again?  Maybe I'm just naive.  :facepalm:

I can foresee this too,  or even the Russians handing him over directly if Snowden does something else really dumb.  Vladimir Putin seems to have been playing nice recently with the Americans on security related issues.  I have noticed Pres Obama, letting out loose hints in some speeches on how...

^^^^^ Yup it'll subside some but still be there nagging you.  I have my cell phone on me all day Monday to Friday check for messages often too.  It's a big leap myself I'm itching to get started at BMQ; thinking wow.  I get to go back to school again :)  Make new friends.  Learn a new career. ...

Congrats on your recent merit listing.  Someone did just post they were offered accepted into infantry,  I've seen nothing for Combat Engineer.  There is a lot of us on these forums who are waiting.  I can think of 6 now I've chatted with and many more I've had no interactions with that are...

I have to ask when did you have your interview?  I've personally seen many postings of interview to merit listing to when people get a call based on how long in weeks after the Merit listing.  Are you Merit listed and when?  Your signature says "compleat"  My impression is 3 to 4 weeks after...

I have to point out the obvious here.  Why are they running 3 unprofitable kiosks when they could possibly be running 1 or 2 profitable kiosks. From Article: "Taxpayers are subsidizing the shortfall at the hospital’s three kiosks featuring Tim Hortons" Where's my coffee!  :)

Home  ;D

Everyone wants infantry.  This is not surprising. 

umm.. wasn't that 30,000 total for the CF as a whole?  Also I believe DAA said that was a understatement and the number is north of 40,000

I passed my medical with Lasik.  Also check for waiting times.  Some institutions, I don't know if it apples to the Forces.  Require a 6 months waiting period and a follow up eye exam. As for glasses are they reading glasses?  Eye surgery does NOT correct your close up vision.  It only...

I had Lasik done about 7 years ago.  Did it Lasik MD.  $1300 per eye.  All the other clinics were trying to stab each other in the back bashing the competition when I called.  I'm not trying to scare anyone.  Do your homework. Cost was a deciding factor and Lasik MD was to my knowledge 100%...

Thanks that paints a better picture of the process for me.  Some trades are constant, others have set dates.  Makes sense now.

Where are you guys getting BMQ and BMOQ dates from? I'm looking here and nothing past July is listed.  http://www.cflrs.forces.gc.ca/menu/cfc-ecc/dc-cd/index-eng.asp Thanks

Can you confirm this? I inquired two days prior and was informed with the "probably soon" response.  "Keep exercising!" lol.  Seriously this is one of my selections.  I been optimistic the date would be coming up shortly.
