Coal in the stocking always seems to work well. ;D Take her for a big night out in the city.  Dinner, a show (musical, opera etc.) and then stay at a nice hotel.  That's worked for me in the past. This sounds real bad but there's a jewelry maker called Tiffany & Co.  Everyone knows it I'm...

I don't know what selection board that would be as they are now over. A few quick questions then. When roughly did the selection boards finish? Would any phonecalls/offers still be coming out?  Or now with the boards over does that mean that all slots for January IAP/BOTC have been offered...

I have to say that school uniforms are the way to go.  I know that many think uniforms curb one's individuality but it also prevents pre-pubescent girls from wearing thong underwear and low-rise jeans and teenager boys from tripping on their grossly oversized trousers.  I went to a school where...

would my family doctor have my vacination record on my file becasue i cannot find mine? There are a few ways to get a hold of your vaccination records.  Its more than likely that you'll have to track down a few different sources. Your family doctor should have some sort of vaccination history...

Joe Blow, Big congrats and well deserved!  Have fun in St Jean.

Hey, I totally sympathize with you.  I was told the other day that I had been "merit listed".  And despite my attempts to get a straight answer I have really been told nothing by the CFRC.  The last 3 phone calls I have received from the CFRC were from 3 different people telling me 3 totally...

Sorry, I'm just a little confused that's all.  Because the guy who called me yesterday said to wait until the spring, while my MCC, who I talked with today, says that if I don't hear from them in january then I should call them to find out what's going on.  So my MCC made it sound like I was...

Merit listed means that you have met all the eligibility and suitability requirements for your file to go to the selection board for your chosen occupation.  It does not mean you have a job or that you have been selected for a job it means you now wait for the next selection to see if you are...

So I got a call from the CFRC today and was told that I had been merit-listed for Int Officer.  Despite the fact that I asked the recruiter several times what being merit listed entails exactly I was not really given a clear response.  I was just told that the next DEO selection board will meet...

So I went to my doctor today to get him to check my BP.  122/60.  I guess I must have been pretty anxious during the physical test to score 141/80.  In any case, I'm good to go now.  PT test on friday!

Is this guy serious? When I did my urine test they had me take a cup to the restroom, which was in a secure area of CFRC Vancouver, do my business and then leave the cup on a shelf in the restroom. So unless you and your friend can somehow figure out how to get past the front desk and into the...

Cheers for all the replies lads. Jaxson, he tested me twice.  The first time he said it was a bit high.  So he took my height and weight and then sat me back down to do the bp test again.  Thats when it was 141, because I actually looked at the monitor screen thingy.  Then he said that he was...

Thanks for the reply.  I'm not upset at all.  I know the guy was doing his job.  It just sucks when you are 1 over.  I'm pretty sure it was because I was a little anxious about getting it done.  Whatever the case may be I'm sure my doc will clear me because he has never mentioned anything about...

So I went to do my PT test today and was told by the tester that I was not allowed to do it today because my blood pressure reading was not below 140!  Apparantly I have to take some form to my doctor and have him do a blood pressure test on me and then sign it before I can do the PT test.  The...

"Hey guys if anyone runs on a treadmill here, other then me, ill give you a good tip, take a towel, fold it in half so its not that long, and throw it over the display board, it covers the speed, time and distance you have gone until you give you. I did this and i ran about 3 times more distance...

I'd like to hear more about this policy change that disappeared your security vetting wait... Is this another sign of recruiting being streamlined? Che, I think I might be able to answer that question.  A couple of months ago I was still waiting for my background check to come through (I lived...

Personally, I don't have much of a problem with an individual's spelling or grammar.  As long as I can get an idea of what they are trying to say then I couldn't care less.  I don't think that a person's grammar should be used as an indicator of how mature/immature they are.  That being said, I...

I can't think of 10 but here are some of my faves: All Civs (Civ III especially) Cossacks (All versions) American Conquest Neverwinter Nights

I'm from the west (BC to be exact) and I have to say that I found the people in Ontario and the eastern provinces to be alot friendlier then they are out here.  Vancouver has become a bastion of snobbery and posing.  I find the people out east are more "real" and not as fake and phoney as they...

While not discounting the importance of being as physically fit as possible, from what I understand the PT test is done on a pass/fail basis.  So as long as you pass then that's all that matters as far as how it affects your overall DEO application.  Although, I would assume that the more sports...
