Hah, no. A higher up is saying that he's going to start enforcing it saying it's in the regs.

Interesting. Is there a place that will actually show it? I've been searching the DIN for both of your suggestions but nothing specifically about reversing into a parking spot. I'm also looking for information about specifically 8 Wing Trenton.

Mybe not the right place for this, but unsure where else to ask. Without knowing any back ground...Is there a DAOD/QRO/Base SOP that says that civilian vehicles (POMV, like ones you drive to and from work, not DND civi pattern) HAVE to be backed into a parking spot?

IF the the spec pay was linked to the position that the person held then whatever. But there are IST/CST guys doing the exact same job as a core. And there are core guys that are forced into IST jobs in regiments and even do IST courses.

Exactly. I signed the part ones. I know what my job description is.  If it's not in there then I shouldn't be doing it, especially when I'm not officially trained and it isn't part of my job AND there is a spec trade guy sitting in a shop who's job it actually is. Yes, I would. You're not...

Why the lack of promotion in the IST side? I'd assume its because a lot of Sigs choose that when the option came up a while ago thinking they were getting spec pay right away. People not leaving the trade kind of hinders promotion as well. Seems core Sigs go onto different things instead of...

The main problem I see happening is if Spec Pay is implemented and back paid to Oct 1st (like it should be) will the core trade people get that if they worked in positions of IST/CST? Likely not. Want to piss a bunch of Sigs off? FORCE them into computer help/IST positions and then label them on...

Thanks for the tips/somewhere to start!

I was wondering if some people could send me some VOT memo examples. I have a horrible way with words and something to jump-start my brain would be very helpful. P.S. Yes, I've searched many times, and not just on this site. But I could be blind...

But ya, this is all a moot point since that new MES thing is coming in 'soon'

Hey I'm not bashing what is actually put on the 3's course. I'm bashing the actual course. 6 months is NOT needed, there was tonnes of downtime, and tons of times going over the same thing a million times. We spent a week on the 117(which isnt on TP) simply because we had so much time extra...

Getting posted to JSR right after your 3's is very hard to do now, unless you have a real reason why you have to stay in Kingston(kids and wife usually) you will probably not get it. Edmonton has the faster promotion rate to cpl from what all my CoC has said and talking to people from my 3's...

Or a sig... Anyways, I joined with only grade 10, and had the choice of TONS of trades (was shown what i qualified for). So long as you have grade 10 and do well on the CFAT they aren't going to care about your education

Probably just random urine tests. They are super fast and super cheap.

Theres a QL3 course slated for the first week of June... So looks like its still going to be going for a bit.

Someone suggested I update this, so heres the updates: I had my offer the next day(Nov 7th) from that I had my change of name certificate copied. The CFRC called back early Dec to tell me of my swearing in date and asked if I was still interested in my trade I accepted on the phone(SigOp)...

I never said none were. A poll where its just confirmed members of the Canadian Forces would hold alot more ground in the land of statistics then just polling "random" people.

Wouldn't the best kind of un-official poll(anything that isn't a country-wide vote) be one that only included Canadian soldiers? Wonder why you never see any of those... :\

I don't think anyone here is saying that transfers are bad in anyway, its the people that sign up in a red trade thinking that after BMQ they will be able to easily switch to their choice trade .

I realize you're a medtech, but is excess creatine even looked for at the enrollment medical? The pee strips only test for generic things like blood and protein and other things, but pretty sure not creatine. I used to mix in creatine with protein mix(and told the medical officer doing my...
