I was told to consider releasing and re applying from DMCPG-5 (the people who process CT's) if I wanted to go for MARS/LOG. Alternatively they told me I could become trade qualified in either trade and then reapply (impossible, because I can't get the time off work, and this would take years) or...

I'd ask around your unit (Through the COC) and see if someone can find you some work, but I'd put the priority on getting fully trade qualified as that will speed up your CT and it will also open up more employment opportunities.  Edit: added (Through the COC)

Try the junior ranks page or the Huron club page (name of the mess). Likely, someone in that group is on PAT or was recently on PAT

What you need to is go into your orderly room as soon as you get back and fill out the online component transfer application. It is a very simple form, posting preference, deu preference, trade and preferred transfer date. As well as basic contact information. (In theory you could do it in...

If you plan on "quickly" transferring from the reserve force to the reg-f DO NOT apply to the reserves. Read this thread, "Component Transfers (Reserve to Regular): Q&A" http://army.ca/forums/threads/12797.0.html . Once you are in the reserves it is a pain to transfer to the reg-f especially if...

One thing to factor, you said your girlfriend's car will "die" and you are surprised that it runs. I'm not an expert at all with cars (I do not own a car), but could your girlfriend's car die in the next 1-2 years? Or could an expensive part go and then it no longer is cost efficient to keep it...

I'm glad it worked out for you. All the best with your career.

Got this today from RBC The longer Canada Post/CUPW screws around negotiates the worst it will be for both parties.

Personally not having any problems, but definitely are issues in my organization/government wide. A good buddy of mine went from a casual to indeterminate in the same job/department (different position #/team) He hasn't been paid in almost 2 months. He got an emergency payment, but he has been...

I grew up on a farm, and I do not believe that Hamilton only has Dial-Up. I would like you to provide me with either a postal code/municipality so that I can look up the coverage. Because my small town of 900 peoples 2 and half Hours south west of Ontario has at least 5 mbps, and the local...

Likewise the time to transfer once you are already in the reserves makes whatever money/experience you make not worth it.

I wouldn't expect who actually knows anything to say anything. It is being pretty tight lipped where I work. Likewise I wouldnt expect anything to happen until after Canada Post settles their strike. Especially because the biggest issue is the pension..

I really don't buy this argument at all, i grew up in Rural Ontario and in my small town of 900 people we had a library with 2 computers for free access to be used throughout the day, I haven't stepped foot in it since around 2007, so I imagine the offerings have improved. We also got a new...

Hey mike do you mean Thursday August 4th? Right now you have Thursday the 7th. Cheers

See this must be where the generational gap exists. Why would anyone mail a letter these days? You can send it instantly by email, furthermore it is free and if you really want you can put a read receipt on it. The only time I see people in my age group sending letters are for wedding...

There have been several potential applicants who have posted on here that "I'm in grade 11/12 whatever and I want to join unit XYZ and then transfer to the reg-f shortly thereafter". Several people (myself included), have told these people not to waste their time because the amount of time it...

This, 100%. There is a fine line between not providing enough information, and over providing. You need to provide enough context information so that they can understand but try not to get lost in a sea of acronyms. The first interview that I tried to fill in the gaps via my time in the...

:nod: I've toyed with it. CFRC told me to, DMCPG-5 told me to. I don't mind waiting a bit (2-3 years) because there aren't spots in the CF or because there are stronger applicants in front of me. Honestly I'd wait longer if required, or fix whatever deficiencies I have. But being told that...

Wouldn't it almost be better if we just left Quebec keep the Canadian dollar? Any country, business that was trading with Quebec would have liabilities/receivables from Quebec and would overnight either/gain loose money depending on how the new currency fared. Likewise we'd have millions of...

Now I haven't been following this over extensively, however from what I have been reading they believe it will take at least 2 years to unravel this. It would then make sense would it not for Britain to have a second vote once everything has been figured out?
