captain qualified

Just came back from course in Trenton yesterday. I am now officially qualified to be a captain. Whether the promotion happen or not will depend on other things.

Like with most of these courses, the candidates are told that they are professionals, only to be treated like kids, or worse, because I would never talk to my cadets that way. Maybe because I've been away from the system for a bit, it gave me some perspective into how screwed up some aspects of the system really is. Anyway, done and done.

Leaving for Cold Lake on Sunday. Another summer of camp, probably my last one. Feeling ambivalent about it, but a little more towards positive as the day approaches. Still have things that I have to take care of for exchange in the fall. Hope I can get that sorted out before leaving. Still looking for an articling job.

He wants to see me, but I know better than to drag this thing out.
