Just had this happen. A member of my team did a show to reactivateJust had this happen. A member of my team did a show to reactivate 10/28. She knew there was someone attending that wanted to sign . So she talked with her, and gave her info. The possible recruit tried to sign up online under that consultant on the 29th. But my consultant hadn't turned in the show yet and wasn't active-so all of us got emails from home office advising us of this. My consultants show was received on 11/1. She was just reactivated yesturday 11/12! The signing consultant tried everyday to sign up under her recruiter and was denied. She really wanted to get started so she signed under no one and was luckiliy assigned to my director.

I talked with home office today. They admited it was a long time for her to be re-activated and if all 3 parties agree- she can be switched. I just explained everything to my director and she is cool with it. Whew!

I was just stunned when it took this long for her to be re-activated- I wanted to let everyone know.
 
I'm glad to hear they are making it right!
 
My goodness! Luckily it works out!
 
Wow, I'm shocked they are going to reassign her. What great news!

I believe the key is all 3 people involved agreeing to the switch. My consultant, the new consultant and the assigned director. I really lucked out that she got assigned randomly to my director.
 
I think any ethical director would (should) agree to let her be reassigned to the person she wanted to be with. It's not like the other director would have even talked with the recruit for pete's sake!
 
Who is excited for this!? I read the ebook a few weeks ago and loved it. Can't wait for the movie.
 
I think it'll make for an intense movie... it was an intense book. One in which I laughed, cried and breathed with the characters... very vivid... not sure what the reviews will be though...
 
I heard that this was a really good book. Hmmm maybe watch the movie and then read the book so that i'm not dissapointed? But then I always compare the movie to the book while reading it. So better read the book first.
