No, my original trade choices in 2008 were MSE-Op and Image tech. Image Tech is next to impossible to get into off the street and I don't meet the vision requirements for MSE-Op. Live and Learn :)

My apologies, I don't believe I responded to you. My original application in 2008 was removed for medical reasons and my trade choices closed during my application progress last year. A little update: Recruiting Center: Victoria, BC Regular/Reserve: Regular Officer/NCM: NCM Trade Choice 1...

CF Members in uniform is not something you regularly see in Nanaimo as it is; at least you didn't when I lived and worked near the base and university. I would think that would make it hard to judge the potential for recurrence in the area versus a 1 off from a crack head going ape over a...

I would say go to the audiologist. Your hearing may not be as bad as it came through on the test, particularly if you have wax buildup in your ear canals. An audiologist will be able to do a thorough check and offer suggestions as well as provide documentation to the military on your hearing...

Medcorps, Ballz, thank you both. The schools I have looked at on island didn't have anything of the like, just an MBA. I hadn't looked off island as most of the mainland schools are out of my price range to attend. As for CDN Aviator: The explanation past acknowledging I was wrong wasn't...

Fixed  :P

CDN Aviator, is there something wrong with trying to be considerate of others? Or is it acknowledgement of my error and being grateful for the opportunity to clarify the background of my statement and for the additional information that draws the sarcastic response? A question was asked of me...

Actually, I can read just fine thank you and I would appreciate the same courtesy I show to you to be given to me as well instead of immediately launching into insults. I can accept that I am mistaken. I have yet to come across a BA in Business while searching through degree programs. It could...

If by Business Degree you mean MBA than no, there wont be an engineering officer with just an MBA. You do not even qualify to start an MBA without a bachelors degree. It doesn't matter what bachelors, you simply has to have one to do an MBA. Edited to add: Whoops Necro-bump. Sorry!

I'm sure there is something to be said for persistence here somewhere... Recruiting Center: Victoria, BC Regular/Reserve: Regular Officer/NCM: NCM Trade Choice 1: Ammo Tech Trade Choice 2: Vehicle Tech Trade Choice 3: Med Tech Application Reopened: Feb 3, 2012 First Contact from CFRC: ---...

Your local RC may be different from my own, but I can offer what experience I have. Without an open position for your trade of interest, a file will typically remain unprocessed until one opens. Once positions open and your file is reviewed you will be booked for your CFAT/Medical/Interview and...

Because Doctors and Lawyers at least, I don't know about welfare workers, have a form of malpractice insurance that will pay out a ridiculous amount of money upon threat of being sued to have the entire issue swept under the table.

All persons looking to work with minors are required to undergo a CRC. The extent of the involvement will dictate how many different avenues are checked. ie: Recent history, pardoned history, juvenile record related to an adult record, sealed/unsealed juvenile record. I think there was more on...

I am a screened Volunteer with a Navy League/Sea Cadet corp and actually looked this one up. CIC Officers are paid according to rank on a fixed daily rate. For a full day's work (more than six hours) you get a full day's pay; for less than six hours, you get half that amount. At that, a CIC...

Same guy, same user name, same topic actually.

Perhaps your friend meant that his reserve unit is currently at max capacity and not the regular forces? I was in the CFRC in Victoria Thursday and dropped of an application on Friday for an open MOC. So at this time there is at least 1 occupation with openings, and new hiring numbers for 2012...

Gas prices in Victoria have been bouncing between 105 and 140 since June of last year. It'll take a week or so to inch its way down to 105-110 then jump back into the 130's over night. We're sitting at about 112 right now and got as low as 98.9 a few weeks ago. In all that time, I never saw...

unless it has changed scrap paper will be provided, you will not be able to use your own.

To the best of my knowledge I was not making a blind answer, and everyones "Know" is only to the best of their knowledge. As has been stated by several people now you can take an electric toothbrush. My error was in putting it out for inspection, so in that I stand corrected and apologize for my...

From what I have come across on this site regarding what can and cannot be used during basic in regards to personal hygiene, my answer did not seem unreasonable. I did not give a definitive yes or no, I simply said I do not see why not. From what I have found in that regards, it has always...
