:confused: Hey!
I signed on in July and my SS1 was August. I qualified about 2 weeks ago. I received my SS1 bonus, but no knives.:( Does anyone know how long it should take? :confused: Am I too impatient? LOL I just can't wait to get those knives!!!:D
 
You can call HO and ask them. They could be back ordered because all the consultants are allowed to purchase them right now at a good discount.
 
It's normal to feel excited and impatient about receiving your knives as part of your sign-on bonus. However, the timeline for receiving them may vary depending on the company's policies and procedures. Some companies may send out bonuses and gifts within a few weeks, while others may take longer.If it has been longer than a month since you received your SS1 bonus and you still haven't received your knives, it might be a good idea to reach out to your HR department or supervisor to inquire about the status of your gift. They should be able to provide you with an update and an estimated timeline for when you can expect to receive your knives.In the meantime, try to be patient and enjoy your new job! The knives will come soon enough and you'll have them to use for a long time to come. :)
