It's a sign that I am not meant to give up PC :) At the end of last year I had started with another DS company that I LOVE and with graduating this Dec and everything being hectic I had put PC on the back burner.

Well last week my DH came home from work and asked if I was still doing PC, turns out that one of my previous host that he works with her sister wants to have a party. Here is the best part, they only want ME for the consultant :love: The last show was 1k so of course I said YES I will do the show.

Then a couple of days later I received a phone call from a previous host and I called back and left a message and I kinda forgot about it. She calls tonight and wants to have a party tomorrow night :eek: :eek: They are seasonal workers and are leaving on the 24th for Texas. Well School starts tomorrow but on Wed I don't have class until 11:30 so of course I said YES. Her last show was also 1k.

On one hand I am very happy that these shows are in Sept because of the cookware special...BUT I became inactive last month so I lost my 2% raise :(

Now I have to go and clean my cookware to take with me tomorrow night.
 
Hey that's wonderful! :DSorry about the inactivity though. :(
 
Nikki,
I'm SO happy you're back! :D
 
Way to go & welcome back!
 
Way to go Nikki!
 
Good job! Enjoy the shows!

Have you thought about emailing and getting a retro-active sales waiver??? I think you have until the 20th or something to do that if you havnen't gotten once recently. It will give you your raise back but costs $25 and is deducted from your next commission check. Just a thought!
 
Darcy, I didn't even know such a thing was possible!! Wow! That is good to know.

Nikki-It's worth a shot to call HO to find out. Good luck!! You must do really good parties! Congratuations!
 
Good for you! YEAH.... welcome back to PC! :)
 
Whooo hooo for you! That's great!
 
Even if you can't get the 2% thing back, at the rate you're going, sounds like you'll be there in no time!
 
I would definately call Home Office and see if you can get the waiver. It is worth a shot.

For the waiver, is it to late if I went inactive in August?

Thank you for all of your support.

So Chris......because you asked let me tell you

The sales were not as high as her last show.....BUT I did sell a lot of cookware. How many pan-o-rama points did I earn last night?
838
Plus I still have one other hostess that wants the cookware and I just found out that my brother wants the 5 & 7 piece ss set! I am so going to get my 5 piece executive cookware set :D I am soooo excited!!

I am so thankful that two previous host have contacted me for shows and I have decided not to give up PC. (it is kinda hard to give it up when you earn free stuff ;) )
