" Just to point out: Not once did I say it was a good idea for the OP to drop out of High School" Nor have I said any of you should. I thought they taught students how to follow and understand a conversation... I forgot this was the internet and we all are suppose to take on the whole...

"Which is why having more education = having more options for the day when one may not want to/be able to do "physical labour work" any more." I took that as having more education not just High School, so I gave an example of beyond. This all comes down to "you know, I know". I was just...

Which is where the upgrading once you're already in a company comes in. If you don't have the ambition to try and move up in a company or take advantage of their offers that's a personal decision. Nothing is stopping someone from taking distance education or correspondence on your own terms. You...

I was using it in a sarcastic manner which generally means I'm over exaggerating it. I'll refrain from using that sort of writing style in the future to avoid confusion of the point I was trying to make. I was trying to refer to the fact that it's pretty common depending on your location to find...

Yes because there's definately not guys out there doing physical labour work with no education requirements making close to or over 6 figures a year, I have to stop making imaginary friends. It's been a while since I've heard all the blithering about how it's impossible to be successful in...

I dropped out of high school after grade 11 and joined the military at 17. I'm a lot better off than quite a number of people I was going through High School with. Even after you join you can earn your (G)ood (E)nough (D)iploma or take university level distance education courses if that's what...

This may only apply to the school I attended, but the main problem I have with homework is that all the work brought home was worth more of your final grade in high school than the final examination. I always thought that a practical test asking you to apply all the concepts and skills taught to...

Good to know. I'm Reg force and am already SQ and Dvr wheel qualified. Our understanding is we're going to be going to Kingston for PAT and just wait around for a few months until the Dec. 4th course.  It must have just been an error in the systems here when the other guys got the year long...

So does that mean all the 3's courses that got pushed back to December 4th are still only the 5(6?) month variants of the course? We had a few guys that had October 09-10 on their course loading sheets and we figured it meant the course got lengthened for this amalgamation. Unfortunately no real...

Well that clears that up. Thanks =-].

If you would have retrieved the body, you could have had a rather fashionable hat to wear while telling the story.

At least now I know I'm not the only person who scrolled through all the months to find where the next 27th landed. Thought I just had too much time on my hands.

Tomorrow is the 15th, and there is no Sunday the 27th of this month. I'm a bit confused. But gratz on the offer and good luck of course!

Just to add on... It should be okay to break the "no already asked question" rules when it comes to policies, incentives, etc... that are years old, and may have changed. That usually is asked in the form of "Have there been any updates to xxx, or is xxx still in effect?".

Dartmouth, N.S. How many different courses start at the same time, 2? I'll hit you guys up with a PM if I hear back that it's #0213.

I have no clue what my course# is. I'm sure I'll be informed when I swear in.

It really comes down to your values. Neither way you view it can ultimately be deemed "right or wrong", so it's really just a waste of space to be arguing about it.
