Engineers in the DF

[luchi]

Oh I assumed that the Avatar could be anyone. There is more than one person with a miss leading avatar, like a certain person with 2LSB avatar that pops up form time to time. However your verification + Limerick identified him as a certain person to whom I would have to acknowledge as far more informed on this topic than I could be.

And I am sure he knows me well too.

One question springs to mind.

If the CIS CQ has no tech grade, is it a little odd that he, the 62CIS CQ I mean, is often the one that is teaching the Reg Sigs course?

[Truck Driver]

well there is a reason why cis are the only army corps with tech 6

???

Am I incorrect in saying that Medical Doctors in the Medical Corps
are graded as Tech 6 ???

[Truck Driver]

Only Other Ranks get tech grades.

Ta

[luchi]

That doesn't mean he knows anything about what he's talking about

Funny because its true!!!!!!!!!!

But it must be hard to get a CQ then. Sgt tech 5 is not going to want to take the job, is he?

[DeV]

Only Other Ranks get tech grades.

The equivalent is an "technical officer" I think.

[Johnny2Stripes]

With all the talk of shortages of engineers and trades persons in the PDF, how come there are no DE positions being advertised?

[holdfast]

there should be a competition soon i think for the a/m

[ltsmarty]

DE competition coming in September !

[Johnny2Stripes]

If that is the case Kermit, why do we keep hearing about the shortages? Is there an issue or not?

[ltsmarty]

I'll rephrase;

DE Engineer competition coming next month !

[johnny no stars]

What type of engineers were they, Kermit? No point having 200 electrical engineers and advertising for more if you're short on mechanical engineers
