How long are you ready to wait in order to get the job/career you want? For me, the waiting timer is at 19 months, yeah you read correctly, I written months and not days or weeks. OK, once I'll be there, it will be my last job of my life becasue I plan to work 25-30 years for them in order to retire at 65. In February 2007, I started the recruiting process of the RCMP and now, about 15 steps later, I can say that I'm at the very last step before going to the 6 month training in Regina (Saskatchewan). I had an information session last Friday about life at Regina during the training, it was amazing I can't wait to be there. The person there told us that the big majority of people were almost freaking out in the first 3 weeks and if they would offer a trip back home, most would take it after 3 days there. The days starts at 5:30 and you're occupied until 22:30. As I told the recruiting offcer, I'm not worried about being at Regina because I've been in dorms in high school, I left my home to go live in France after applying for a job there. I'm worried about getting to Regina because I still don't know if I'm accepted and I'll know it only when I'll have the call saying that I'll leave at a certain date (they generaly give us a month notice). Until then, I have a shit load of things to read and learn by hearth and some shopping to do. If you wander how's life there, here are some videos that I found and are quite interresting. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZY9sfTYo1vI What's hard in my situation is that I can't start anything because the call could come in anytime now. My GF and I broke up last December and I didn't try to meet someone, I would like to take resume the dancing lessons, get in a badminton club, take ski lessons and a whole lot of other activities but I can't decide myself because I don,t want to start something and drop it afterwards. Anyway, if I get the call, I'll be the happiest man on Earth, if not, I'll just be a more patient man....and desperate because I'm so bored of my actual job, there's no word to describe it.
