Yahoo!!!:D
 
Well, if this holds true, I'll be in Wave 2 and wouldn't you know it, my birthday falls right in those wave dates! LOL Guess I'll be celebrating with my PC family instead of my own family. :D
 
There are worse ways to spend your birthday.

This is true! LOL

My worst birthday was my 39th. I had to rush my husband to the ER. So, anything other than a trip to the hospital is a good birthday!
 
Yeah, that sets the bar pretty low.
 
We'll be in Wave 1 unless our SD promotes! YAY!!! :D
 
We'll also be in Wave 1 unless our SD promotes!!:D
 
Did everyone get the email today? Official assignments have been made. I'll be in Wave 2. I'll probably have to fly straight from MT from my brother's wedding to make it there, but I can make it work!

How does this work? Any qualified consultant can attend? How sad is it that I don't know anyone above my recruiter!:(

Of course!!!! All consultants, you can even attend if you sign that day!

Check your commission statement and you should see who is above you.
 
It lists a first line director, third line director and "Assigned to" but that's it....none of these are listed as the executive directors....boo hiss! But thank you for that info because I never knew that info either! LOL!

Well if you tell us your 3rd line director, someone on here can probably tell you who she/he is under.
 
Joyce Pawlowski?

I personally don't know but someone will! ...just wait for people to read this...
 
lol! thank you!!!:blushing: :balloon:
 
I know that name - it's a pretty well known name, so I am sure someone will know.

And even if you don't know anyone else - when you get to conference, there will be a whole bunch of cheffers waiting to meet you - no matter what wave you are in!:D

"wave" means which conference you go to. Because PC is such a big company, there are too many consultants to fit everyone in at one conference. There are 3 "waves" - or 3 separate (but the same) conferences. They are divided up by Executive directors - so when you find out who your Exec is, you will then be able to determine which wave you will attend.

And Conference is the most incredible time!

Do hubby/boyfriends go? Would he be 'out of place'? Are there 'scheduled' sessions for just consultants where's he's not permitted to go?
 
Joyce is my 3rd line, but Robin Schilling is my second line. You could be under anyone if that is how it works. I don't think she is a NED, so talk to your recruiter because they could give you some insight.
 
If Robin is 2nd line above Joyce then she should be under Robin Schilling too...
 
Wave three here! I haven't been in years so I am looking forward to going back!
 
Whoo Hooo! Wave 1 this year!!!! I can't wait.:sing:

I have an email into her now....
 
I'm wave 3. It will be my first time going. My dates are 17 - 19. Does anyone know when to arrive. I guess what is the general itinerary. Arrival and departure for travel purposes etc..
 
I'm also in wave 3 and I know that the suspence will kill me! (well, of course it wont really kill me but YKWIM!) I was wave 1 last year and now I have to wait my turn to find out all the exciting news....
