Was wondering today... what's up with military people not showing up to give blood? They came up short of like 10 people today at the Museum... 40(!) was their quota. (in all fairness, they usually meet their quota on Fridays - normal blood drive day) Queen's get 400+ donations in a day, and a...

Who should I see if I don't trust my CoC anymore. Went up to the WO, still not handling my case with any dignity or respect. Padre?

Bunch of Comm Rsch were tasked out, but we have our security clearance interview scheduled right in the middle. Now we've always been told, career prevails over everything. We've been told by "people" (won't name names/ranks) that missing such interview will put us back several months before we...

Our CoC doesn't know what this major tasking is all about, sure thing is it's at CMTC. Do PATs sent from other bases to Wainwright get to do OPFOR or is it mainly GD (constructing villages, picking shells?) And any other units shipping people down there in September?

The EWAT was cancelled couple months ago, but we heard they were looking for people to man port security again... anyone heard about this?

Friend of mine got sent to Winnipeg as a driver, she resides in Quebec though, she hates it in Winnipeg and is stuck there 4 years... Is there any way for her to get transferred back to Quebec or somewhere closer?

I really want to do the naval training during my waiting period before my phase 2 (Comm Rsch). A lot (if not everyone) of people said you need to be posted to a ship before doing the training... but anyone ever asked to get it without a posting first?

Hey guys, I was looking for the minimum medical standards when I found the CFHS's website with what seems to be updated standards... can someone in the know confirm that these are the latest standards? A LOT of careers are now V4 rather than V3... *jumps*...

Anyone else noticed their patience is much shorter now that they're military? Or that it gets harder to manage their anger? Any tips on how to work those aspects of life? Before the army, I was a perfectionist, but now it's at a whole new level... I can't stand eating with people (other than...

Hey guys! First week-end off, indoctrination is over. (now a week 5) My BMQ is in french, much easier than an english platoon I'ld say. Much less screaming and jacking. (except with R22Rs - My section cmder is one :threat:) Staff changes a lot, we lost 3 instructors so far for various...

Disclaimer: Am not physical expert, these are exercises I've gathered up, made up reps based on various informations... I'm mostly going for endurance and toning rather than muscle growth (just started free weight though to hopefully increase strength) Since January, I've been doing swiss ball...

Hey guys, So I got the call to be a Comm Research, and I think I once read (can't find it anymore) that you can start the clearance process during MOC trainning? Is that possible, or you MUST do a year-long "internship" in Leitrim? Can't wait to start BMQ!  :salute: :salute:

Hi, A co-worker said he bought a laptop from the Forces after a tour or something... he'ld like me to format it for his daughter since the Forces locked it up permissions-wise... Do the Forces sell laptops to members? Shouldn't the Forces have formatted it before selling it? I'm kind of...

Hi, I enrolled for Comm Research in the Navy, talking with the interviewer today, he didn't seem familiar with the navy applicants' training process. When do purple trades do the NETP? Thanks!

As a kid, I was always thought of as a geek, but I've come to realize during my last high school year that I'm not cut out to be a geek.... what with the work environment and the condescending attitude. Nevertheless, after high school I enrolled for computer science in a private college. I was...
