Hey all,
My name is Karl, I've recently went to pick up an application to the Canadian Forces (Reserves). I handed everything in exactly 1 week later, and I can honestly say I've never been so giddy about joining ANYTHING. I used to be in the Cadets (left as a Warrant Officer), and look at the Reservists train with envy. The only time I've felt purpose in my life is when I'm in uniform. School has been (in my eyes) a complete waste of time, and I've never felt motivated to get up in the mornings (the only drive really, was the fact that I needed my diploma to get anywhere). And so I'm looking forward to being in the CF with as much enthousiasm as a little boy going to an amusement park.
I haven't received first contact yet, but I'm hoping it will come soon. Joining the CF is really all I'm looking forward to. And thus my anxiousness at failing any of the steps of the recruiting process is quite high. I wish I could explain how eager I am, but I'd be hard-pressed to fit it all under 1 post. Thus let me resume by saying that I'm happy to finally be in the enrolment process. Also very to happy to be here in the Forum, sharing common-ground with so many others.
I'll be updating you on my status.
August 15 - Went to pick up Application.
August 22 - Application form is sent out.
Regards,
- Karl
