Some business management metrics view a lack of communication as a grave indicator of toxic leadership...

I think it’s funny people got excited at the first line of my previous post and apparently didn't read the rest before they replied. Allow me to clarify. Since it's fair on paper for everyone to pay market rates for everything; we should not be arguing to not pay market rates: We should be...

I think it's fair that we are being made to pay market value for services and shelter. Quite honestly everyone else does. Well... almost everyone else. I think it's time the Federal Gov starts paying market rates for labour from uniformed members. What's good for the goose is good for the...

sounds like we've got lots of ammo to resist any increases to the recycling fee for the next decade or so, as well as grounds to open the market to competition.

for those hoping that ACISS will be sorted out during our careers...

STOP! BMQ/SQ is all about being part of a team and learning how to do things the same way together with identical kit. You will not be permitted any personal equipment preferences. You will use what's issued, and woe to the recruit who shows up with personally substituted equipment. Custom...

I can't believe this thread is still growing. The autobiography is on the top ten least demanding things you'll have to do on bmq somewhere between sleep and laundry.

You're right, since his party has been known for effortlessly passing legislation that the republicans hate because they own the house and the senate... oh, no wait that's completely wrong.

Whatever law he comes up with next, by definition will limit freedom. You have to understand that basic fact. Right now for example a freedom that has been taken away from me is that I cannot purchase or sell cigarillos and flavoured tobacco products in ON. Just out of nowhere it became...

I'm not sure I follow. He IS that sloppy, he said he thinks if you're on the no fly list, you shouldn't be allowed to buy a gun. There is no wiggle room there for you to say "I don't think he'd be that sloppy" If you read the second ammendment with the same framework that is applied to all the...

Because it's well known the no fly list is full of people within 6 degrees of separation of suspicious people just in case, doesn't accurately target individuals, so anyone with the same name is impacted, there is no way to be taken off of it if a mistake happens, and is just really an...

single parents didn't benifit from the income splitting, they benifited from the UCCB changes, they also have a lot of other programs they can apply for that I don't have access to. We didn't have to take away from single income families to give to single parents. False equivalency. No they...

Altair, You and the liberals seem to be missing the big picture. Child care is subsidized. If more families keep one person at home to raise the children several things happen. 1) The amount of your income spent on daycare for other people's kids drops. 2) The labour pool shrinks causing the...

alternating between wanting to laugh and cry. my god what a gong show.

from the middle and lower class by increasing the amount and number of access fees to everything. I pay about 150 dollars a month to just have power and gas hooked up, before I use a watt of power, or btu of gas. that's excessive and it's this crap that's killing the middle class and keeping...

No argument, but these parade taskings are MCpl and below, so you can probably figure out why it's a strain on those of us trying to support actual operations. Hence my comment about the GoH not having the effect that Chris Pook thought it should.

I would submit that if we provide a GoH for persons less than a top tier dignitary, the person in charge is certainly not those providing it for the foreign national. I highly doubt that any visiting dignitary's agenda gets altered because of a GoH. Those are nice sentiments but they don't hold...

How about all these bloody parades in NCR? Is providing 200+ person days per year for activities such as, GoH for the assistant to the chauffuer of the MND of Pakistan, while the unit is at less than 80% of manning with a greatly expanding AOR, a wise use of our resources. Another question I...

thanks! some glimmerings of a light at the end of the tunnel... still glacially slow, and why is it the Communications Branch fails at communication consistently? I know it's a tired cliche, but damn it, what will it take until someone starts stomping on nuts to fix this problem? Is it just...

Time keeps on slipping slipping slipping, into the fuuuuuuturrreeee!
