So in other words Consultants who have had a rough time of it this year should not get too excited about this message.

I don't know what the announcement is...
but I did not pick up that sentiment from anything on this thread.

This is TORTURE! Ack! I hope they send it soon so I can get something done! I'm trying really heard not to bug my director. I have to say I am very impressed with all of you who know and are keeping a secret. YOu must be bursting at the seams! :D

Sandi

I AM!!!

But really, we as Directors don't have anything in writing yet, so although we know the news...if we shared it, there would just be a plethora of questions that we probably couldn't answer, so it's best to wait for the email that explains everything, and for the info to posted on CC.
 
I KNOW I KNOW!!!!

Sorry had to post...had my first director call last week!

Not telling............CK
 
It's seriously EXCITING news!!!
 
did anyone get the email yet?

I just came on to ask the same thing!

I am not looking for anyone to spill the beans, just wondering if the emails have started going out yet so I can start keeping an eye out. Too many log-ins to my personal email from work might raise flags. :)

Well, it had better be, after all this hype! Or there are going to be a bunch of disappointed CS'ers.... ;)
 
Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder. ;) So we'll see!
 
I'm in NY and last name starts with Z. No emails yet.
 
I was unable to join my first Director's Call yesterday, unfortunately, but my Director filled me in. I'm so glad its going to be announced soon!
 
I'm in MN and my last name starts with H and no email yet.
 
I'm in NY and my last name begins with B....NOTHING. But then again, no CN for November and no calendar yet either. Is someone trying to tell me something???

I received my Nov. CN the Monday after Thanksgiving--wothless and a waste to send it out so late. I did get the calendar, and would be glad to give it to you--not a style I am comfortable using.
 
I wonder if that is the reason they are holding off showing shows from Dec. 5th - until after 3:30pm? Do you think the announcement will be made at 3:30?
This is so absurd now as I am not doing anything here at work trying to think of what it will be and how it will affect me!!:confused:
 
Ok, I live in Missouri and my last name starts with H, and nothing here yet! I have to admit I am very curious...

No, bet not. They've been slow to update since Nov. 29. I thought they would have gotten over the end of month jam but it has lingered til now.
 
Nothing here yet, either. My calendar/planner has not been delivered, either.
My director has scheduled a conference call for tomorrow night. Her email said something would be on Consultant Corner this morning....nope. I madly clicked links everywhere on CC!
 
The Email is actually being sent by structure. Upper Level Directors, Then Directors, Then TL & SC, and then all other Consultants.

(If I remember correctly from the call...)


But - I'm a director, and I don't have mine yet.
 
In my opinion, don't start a thread until it's announced. Look how much buzz this thread has had in the short time. Too bad that we all couldn't find out at the same time. Blessings! I will check on Tuesday to see the news!
 
Becky you are right, it is being sent out by levels, but they did mention that sending so many it has to go out in batches.

I agree, this has been a bit ridiculous

LOL - you think this is bad....this was posted ONE DAY before the actual announcement.

Directors and above got an email a WEEK before the phone call...man was that hard! A WEEK of wondering what it was going to be about...some worries, lots of guesses...BUT - it was better than we had hoped for when we heard the news.

And my Director sent me a "Be watching for an email on Monday about some exciting news" email about a week ago. LOL. It's a hard wait!

Yeah, but you guys didn't start a thread about it, therefore making the waiting unbearable for ALL of us! LOL
I wonder if they aren't making the announcement till tonight or maybe even tomorrow? Or maybe it's one big punk! :D
 
I think it'll just be late in the day. They usually announce things -incentives, promotional stuff, etc on Mondays so that they'll have something to put in the Tuesday Newswire. Or at least that's been the trend lately.
 
No, they said Monday, they would try before noon, but they couldn't guarantee any specific time. In fact a Director asked and was told that exact thing......
 
"A watched pot does not boil". I am going to do you all a favor and go to the grocery store. You know the announcement will come while I'm gone! :D :D ;)

I was out for several hours today and just KNEW that I would have an email when I returned home...no such luck. Oh, well, I've got a Christmas dinner to attend tonight so hopefully I'll have some wonderful news in my inbox when I return.:balloon:
