    never implied any of that, just pointing out that some of us don't have much time during regular business hours, and when the woe is me, my section is so undermanned violining started; I wanted to make the point clear, you're not alone. I'm not saying it's the people manning clothing stores...

    Armed Forces Consider incentives to keep soldiers fit

    I don't get the point of setting a minimum standard based on job requirements, then getting mad that too many people pass it. Wouldn't that be the point? to determine that the people you have can do the job? If the minimum standard doesn't meet that, then raise the minimum standard until it...

    Clothing Stores Help Line Topic

    we're under 50% manned trade wise, I was double hatted, my Capt was away, and it's March. We support operational requirements. Getting name tapes is at the bottom of the priority list. Since I had a slice of time on my travel day, which is technically duty, I wanted to go then, but while...

    Perhaps, however I did not feel it appropriate to lean on some poor duty Cpl to bend rules they are required to operate within. It's not their fault.

    Back to my original post. If you will read the appointments only caveat again, you will see they are for operational reasons only. Since I was only going on course and only had wed, my travel day, to go to supply, I was frustrated. Now I sympathise with trades that are undermanned, mine for...

    Calling the Geeks!

    I don't quite comprehend what you're doing here, are you trying to use the NAS as a place to store the application, not the data? Can't you install the application on your computer, and tell the go pro software on your computer to store your raw footage and the processed footage on the NAS? I...

    (I've apparently got my DP numbers out of wack, is BMQ/SQ DP0? I was under the impression the X.1s were trade and the X.0s were common army.) Based on what you're written, you've defined what a basic ACISS pre specialization should be able to do, sure. But once you put that person into an...

    Are you being sarcastic? Because that was the intent of MES in the first place. In reality these "sub Occs" are completely different unrelated AORs who's only common thread is that they utilize signalers and technology to communicate. I think that attitude you are seeing is a product of the...

    Calling the Geeks!

    Assuming the d link supports a USB connection to provide NAS, you could configure is to shut down it's onboard DHCP, DNS, wireless etc and any other router functions, and plug it into your modem as another node, using the normal ports - leave the wan/internet port empty. (assuming your modem has...

    Puckchaser, I get where you are coming from, but we survived it because those members who were covering those duties were being sent on expensive civy courses to bring them up to speed and immersed themselves in the subject on their own time. Also surviving is not always thriving either. The...

    Up to 1,500 military housing units sit empty, auditor general says

    I just want the "CF Members have to pay market rates for everything" argument thrown out since we are not paid market rates. It would be nice if PLD was fixed as well. As for we have better benefits now than any other point, BULLSHIT! it's only recently that troops have to pay rats even...

    Left-hand shooter question

    I had a hot casing get caught in my rain jacket hood, to fall onto the back of my head once, and I use a modified overhand grasp on the cocking handle, other than that... no issues.

    Up to 1,500 military housing units sit empty, auditor general says

    My belief is that the CAF is able to find recruits not because it pays market rates, instead I feel recruits sign up because they believe in the job. If there were Canadians clamouring for our compensation package for the exact same work requirements, we wouldn't have several red trades and you...

    Why have CANEX? (Split fm "Up to 1500 military housing units ...")

    I got a surprise posting message in the middle of renovations july 2014, because of the depressed market and that all my reno's were upgrades to the house, I took a bath on the sale of my home. On paper it looks like I broke even. Got posted to a place with a much higher cost of living, Ottawa...

    Up to 1,500 military housing units sit empty, auditor general says

    so essentially, public service rates are also not local market rates. Sounds like an issue the public service union could bring up. Also, this is irrelevant. the CRA and the TB requires payment of local market rates. Existing deals and agreements to peg our pay to the PS does not invalidate...

    Filing Formal Complaint Against Civilian DND Employee

    Good day, I searched on this, but it's so general in terms it's a haystack/needle situation. What I'm looking for is if there is a repository that would provide detailed instructions for documenting and making a formal complaint against a Civilian Employee that is attempting to smear a...
