Well as a little bit of background, I didn't qualify for my first choice (Sig Op) because I didn't have a drivers license, which set me back a couple of months, and currently am stuck in a dead end job so am just trying to figure out the best way to get to basic as soon as possible.

No.

Anyone have any idea on the quickest way to BMQ? Which trades are processed the quickest? Combat arms?

CC, let's stick to the topic and not throw insults at each other. I am sure we could both sit here all day and dream up witty ways to bash each other, but it would get us nowhere. Life is too complicated to worry about what people walking down the street got inked, especially when you don't...

I know, I'm not debating the dress regs, just the logic behind them if neck tattoos are really banned because they create individuality. It's a double standard if there is religious individuality but tattoos must be "uniform" in uniform.

No, because there are 6 billion people on this planet and I couldn't care less what anyone else thinks or believes in.

Well some people also wear turbans and other religious head dress in "uniform" and they've never been stopped because not everyone wears one... I don't have a neck tattoo but I'd never judge someone on their tattoos or their locations. Frankly it's none of my business...

I fail to understand how a neck tattoo makes anyone less professional.

Go. Your spot could have been mine so don't waste it.

Hey I eat meat and I want cancer and heart disease  ::)

Every nation always thinks it can't happen to them until it actually does happen. America never expected September 11th and I doubt Londoners expected July 7th or 21st. It will be the same in Canada, it will be a loud wakeup call and jaws will drop. But there is not much you can do before...

Hey, send some of those good recruiters down my way.

Gave the local recruiting center a ring the other day and they made a major fuck up. Forgot to inform me I needed a drivers license to apply for Sig Op. Oops.. that could be important. Took 'em 8 months to pull their shit together and inform me AFTER I'd supposedly been merit listed for more...

Take ownership?! I went there, talked to a recruiter who was also a SigOp, he explained the whole trade and I took every piece of paper he handed to me. Can't request a piece of paper you know nothing about!

Fluck, I'm pissed. Just phoned the local recruiting center (after being merit listed since June 22nd - more than a month) and I'm told there is a problem with my file. I've got no drivers license and no drivers license equals no Sig Op. Took them 8 months and me giving them a call before they...

How is this guy still drawing breathes?

My recruiting center is expecting results by the end of the month for the selection board held on July the 18th. Not sure though, because kincanucks said SigOps go to a different selection board. Ah well, I'll phone them again at the end of the week I suppose. Cheers.

I was born intelligent and then my education ruined it.

Since he can't get the death penalty from a court of law, let's hope one of  his fellow prisoners gives it to him.

Yup, I think I mentioned it in another thread that my recruiting center is hoping to get results by the end of the month. Do keep in touch and tell us when you get your calls everyone.
