^ ^ ^ That is, quite simply put, prose. You should be writing defence policy.... or speeches for the PM.

  You've spoken to your recruiter, you've spoken to an ex Sig Op, and you've been lurking (I assume) on this website enough to have gleaned whatever useful information you can. The CF is in need of signals people, as you can see by going to the DND website... I'm sure you will be well fed...

I think he just hates being in Gagetown.

I personally have no problem with the Military being armed for war. If it means that we don't have to beg for transport, don't have to scramble for some kind of "niche" role, and don't have to worry about kit crashing, breaking, or otherwise not performing to standard, that we get to train...

One thing leads to another and pretty soon, I'm putting my head through brick walls....

1) Wal-Mart, and the hordes of morbidly obese people on those disablility-scooters who shop there who think they own the bloody store, stop in the middle of aisles to chat to their morbidly obese, scooter driving friends, and hold up people trying to walk in both directions, and then repeatedly...

I think the argument could be made that that's grounds for divorce.

How embarrassing.....  :)

  I had laser-eye surgery last year (PRK Wavefront, different from LASIK) and I have 20/15 vision in both eye's now. My surgeon had to fill out the same form, and guess what? He screwed it up, filled out the wrong information in the wrong spots, signed where I was supposed to sign, you name it...

I'm now shaking my head with a confused look on my face, asking "What the...?"

I politely suggest you wake up and take a look around at some of the other governemt services that white anglo males are being slowly pushed out of. Men in general are rapidly being failed in the education system, and now are a minority on college/university campuses, because the government set...

If you aren't willing to make the effort to find a way to get to the recruiting centre, you don't really want it enough. As far as I know you can download all the recruiting forms off of the DND website, that way you only need to make one trip. You can rent a car, or beg a ride from a friend...

VIA is making Polar Bears now??? And here I thought they were only involved in trains....... sheesh...

I asked this of my recruiter, and was flatly told: "Don't."

I don't think anyone has a problem with the government reaching out to minorities who wouldn't traditionally think of the CF as a viable option for a career, but I think that reaching out to one group at the expense of another group who, let's face it, is the bread and butter of the recruiting...

I'm willing to bet things are going to work out fine for those of us going 031, and into the RCR... since RCR 3 Bn is going to be shifting men away to the new CSOR regiment, and they are going to want to stop-gap manpower shortfalls in Pet.... But who knows really, I don't want to be stuck in...

While not an organization that is considered a mainstream part of the workforce, the CF is part of Canada's workforce, and it's not necessarily a bad thing that they want to attract a group/groups of people who traditionally don't serve in the forces, the more the merrier, right? However, that...

The 3 month Reserve Basic course runs in the summer if I'm not mistaken, so that would mean that we're all heading off for the regs. I could just be ignorant of the way things are done though..... but you, Hansol, you're probably just stupid. ;)

Yeah!! ME TOO! I've kicked around Civvie life long enough to know that I'll go stir crazy if I don't join, my family has a rather quiet, but distinguished military history that dates back a VERY long time. Everyone who knows I'm heading off to Basic is very unsurprised, as I was genetically...

Axon, I'll see you at your swearing in ceremony..... we seem to be operating on the same timeline. I'll be heading off to Basic with you as well.
