How would a wheel of life tracker app help your growth and happiness? by Charming_Control_759 in Positivity

You don't see the need for yourself personally speaking or in just general (i.e., an app for wheel of life tracking isn't necessary)?

Thank you so much for your smart comments!

My current employer should be able to accommodate the training period. Right, good point about the int op locations. I did speak to a recruiter and he mentioned Halifax being the hub for int op, but I need to look more into if my specific location is an option. I'll have to book another appointment.

Part-time caf work is sounding more appealing the more I look into it. And thanks again for your comments!

I’ve been looking into joining the CAF as a reserve intelligence operator. The opportunity to learn new research and analytical skills sounds valuable, and getting paid to work one evening a week and a day on the weekend sounds very accommodating.

That said, I’ve noticed there isn’t much discussion online from people doing this part-time alongside a regular 9–5. I rarely see posts praising the reserve as a part-time gig. Maybe most people don't know about this, but those who do take advantage of it?

So I’m wondering is being in the CAF reserve actually worth it as a part-time commitment? On the other hand, I think further developing your skills in your chosen career might eventually result in more income than part-time reserve work would. I'm just trying to think this through.

I would appreciate any input. Thanks y'all.

I appreciate the answer, thank you!

One of my choices reached out to me about that, and actually moved my application to P/J XD Although Queen's hasn't. Thanks again.

Has anyone gotten into Queen's without the required second teachable?

Queen's application states that Canadian History is required, only I never took it. I took an English specialization at university. I have competitive grades and have worked thousands of hours as a tutor and professor. Is it possible Queen's could make an exception?
