[JustinIverson]

Come on people someone has to know that they arent making it to the one in november??? just wanted to meet some of you before we leave..

 

[Gouki]

Well... if the powers that be lay off the smack and find my required docs, I'm hoping to make it by January but it's looking worse and worse each day.

 

[bigwig]

Ill be graduating  BMQ on the 27th of January. Hope to see ya there!

In typical non-sensical fashion, I suddenly get my call today after all the BS I've went through w/ recruiting the last 3 months (believe me, it was anything far from the usual).

Going into Winnipeg next Monday for my Interview, Medical and Physical in the same day. Won't have to stay at that shitty Carlton hotel overnight either thank God.

While I don't have my date yet, Justin it looks like there is a strong chance I may just be loaded on to the January course. Now wouldn't that top it off, we just meet today and we end up in the same platoon?

Did anyone actually merit listed get a call from the CFRC that they are starting there basic in January, I got merit listed yesterday so hopefully i will be called for the january BMQ

I really really hope(although unlikely) I can get to St-Jean by Jan.  I've just submitted my application and should be getting a call next week(so the recruiter says).
If I stay in this job for much longer I'm going to shoot myself, I feel like my brain is rotting away.  All my education for what? making bloody orgcharts and photocopies..

:threat:

I got called on oct 20 and going to basic on jan 11. Going 011 Armour, see you there.

 

[Bob the builder]

I hope I can get to st.jeans by january... but my file is going to take forever since im transfering from reserves to regs .

luckily for me , while Im waiting I still get to play with the guns, just like when i go in tomorow 

 

[Butters]

Well, I'm hoping to get into the November one, but I doubt it. I completed everything... my medical was sent out around October 10th to Borden, had my interview 2 days after. The officer who did my interview said,  "I find you very competitive and suitable for the Canadian Forces." From reading past and present post on the froum I'd say my medical will be back somtime mid Decemeber. So, I'm guessing Jan. for me, hopefully.

 

[jarko]

Is there bmq in December ?? If not whens the next one after january?? March??

 

[Gouki]

I think the next one is around Jan 10th, give or take a few days.

 

[Morgs]

hey guys, i have my interview and medical on the 3rd...
i dont know how likely it will be for us lot to get in in january. im going 043 or 011 (reg, obviously)
anywhooo that being said, i really hope we all do. good luck to you all and hope to see you there in jan ;D

 

[Gouki]

well la dee da..

Was told by the recruiter that given my previous work and educational experience, he is "unsure if I can commit myself" to the Regular Forces. He told me to stick with my job for 4 months, and volunteer for some junk, and come back and the job will be there.

While I am not at all happy with this, and think that this is stupid, I have no real choice other than to do what he asks.

On the bright side, it gives me four more months to get into shape for the Infantry. On the dark side, it means I'm trapped here at home for four more months.

:-\

 

[EasyCo]

Why? Because  you haven't held a job long enough to show that you can commit?

 

[Gouki]

Yeah pretty much. I guess leaving the Reserves because they told me to wait 2 years to get QL3 qualified was somehow illogical of me to do. Because it's perfectly reasonable to wait 2 years to get your basic freaking course.

I guess the 9 months of muay thai kickboxing 4 nights a week isn't enough to show I can commit to hard work (and if you know muay thai you know how tough it can be) or that I train 2 hours a day, or had my current job for 9 months and it has waaay more BS in it than the Reserves did..

Whatever.. like I said, least it gives me 4 more months to train right?
