Hey mom and dad, Do you know if a replacement tailor has been set up at the base after the last one retired?

MFers owe me several thousand in back pay from 2014 and 2015. It was supposed to be paid in Feb. Waiting on the class action grievance. Wish we on the civvy side had an ombudsman

Looks like we're heading towards "No no, we can't do anything to cool the housing market, or pop that bubble, even if we have homeless, fully employed soldiers/sailers/whatever the airforce has." A+ country we have here ffs.

Frosted Flake posted:Depends on if severe injuries would be CAF reasons - I got out on 3B, though they extended me for 18 mo at the end. If I wasn’t hurt, I think I would have been a lifer because I liked soldiering, but I’m worried that it might hit different on the other side of paid school and priority government hiring. Dude, there are ways to serve your country without signing away your right to tell the boss to go gently caress themselves. Public service has priority hiring for vets, and the ccg is real short handed right now. I might imagine other outfits to be similar.

Perhaps the military should consider hiring its top positions from outside the organization, if unable to find suitable candidates within?

Did you folks(on the civvy side) get saddled with the paycheque eating flaming shithawk, or do you fall under the same pay system as the forces?mom and dad fight a lot posted:Man, that's what I hate about being a DND civilian. There's no orderly room, and there's virtually no guidance for figuring out stuff like insurance, retirement, pension, advancing your career, finding resources, etc. I didn't even know how to book leave or find my paycheque for months. You're totally on your own, or leaning on word-of-mouth to learn about anything. Ooh sorry that got ranty. poo poo sucks everywhere these days.

Those seem like stunning policy changes. Beards, face tattoos, and skirts for everyone!

Frosted Flake posted:Alright, thanks guys. That's kind of what I figured since it would open up more Civil Service job codes, Kingston is nice, and I can now be The Guy who brings up Waterloo in every weekly meeting. The vis might be unacceptable in comox, but the wind doesn't seem bad atm. I can think of at least one director in the public service that likely doesn't have a masters degree, but rather, a master mariner certificate of competency. Probably about equivalent.

I thought it was strange that my pay book would have 2 separate categories Strike - legal and strike - illegal Sure, let me just sign an admission that I was taking part in an illegal act. You have my solidarity. Get compensated fairly for a change.

Yo I'm in a guild, and designated emergency worker no strike allowed, but off work with broke brain. What can I do to help out with solidarity?

LOL, I'm on Vancouver Island, and work for the fed gov. Just happened to have enough exposure to mil life through cadets to know not to sign up through that stream. Big thanks to every single serving member under admiral rank that I met telling me not to.

Kazinsal posted:Yeah, it definitely makes me wish I had a bachelor's degree. Unfortunately I've got a two-year technical diploma from BCIT and that doesn't seem to be valid for any sort of upgrade path to officer entry, but maybe I'm looking in the wrong places. Would emailing my local CFRC be the best way to get a definitive answer about that?

Unconfirmed rumors of TC getting better at recognizing sea time and courses. I've run into a few navy vets on civilian ships, but the majority were retirees working casual crew positions.

Gainsboro posted:I wouldn't accuse someone trafficking forty five thousand rounds of ammo across the border of any less than armed insurrection. There's just no practical purpose for that many bullets. I wouldn't be surprised if that's more than any non-depot base has on hand at any given time. A bulk flat of .22lr is 5k rounds on its own. If the guy was a frequent competitive shooter, buying in bulk, and had an array of loads, that many doesn't sound quite so exceptional. If I read correctly, he was moving all his stuff, and didn't declare things properly / at all. Figured the military system was less likely to get searched, had all these prohibs he didn't want to get rid of, and just shipped it.
