Ooh -- and everyone on my HO tour -- it's ok if you want to change tours -- I already know I am winning that shopping spree :P


Jennifer, I'm so excited that your excited.....Just make sure you AREN'T on my bus, because I WILL BE winning that Shopping Spree. This is my YEAR! :p :D ;)
 
Wow -- could you imagine...
 
Oh, I can sooooooo imagine!
 
On the website, it says that the warehouse will be closed due to remodeling and we'll have to watch a video of that point...I am SOOOOOO disappointed in that and that there will be "new ways" to win.

Hey, I know this is the session thread, but since no one responded to my other...anyone have openings in their rooms for 2 people? My recruiter and I are out of our Wave and looking for 2 people to room with to save on costs.
 
Hi Janet,
I know my director and her director reserved 3 rooms and that there are some spots open right now, but they are keeping them open in the hopes that others will change their mind and register for conference.

I know that helps you VERY little -- but if for some reason they are still open when we start getting closer to conference I will let you know.

Sorry I can't be of more help -- I think they are hoping a few more people sign up and a couple of "Tentative" people are hemming and hawing over it right now and they don't want them to get stuck w/o a room.

good luck!!!!!

You’ll see a behind-the-scenes video of the Distribution Center, since it’s undergoing upgrades this summer and will be unavailable during the tours. As a result, each tour attendee will have a chance to win products in an exciting new way! Register early — tickets are limited!

Ok, this is a bunch of crap. :(

Ok, I have to agree...I was looking forward to the tour pretty much for the warehouse only!!!!

I feel like I'm wasting $25 now...not like I don't want to see the rest, but warehouses and systems are my passion as an Industrial Engineer...
 
I don't know what they've done in the past, but last year we did see a video of the distribution center. We only went in there for the shopping spree & then we walked back out to the buses through it. But we weren't given a tour of it or anything. Maybe that's what they've always done?
 
I just registered! I just did a HO tour last year, so I'm not doing that this year. But here are the workshops I'm signed up for. I'm so excited!

It's my first NC and I'm SO excited... and I guess since I don't know any different I'm just so thrilled to take the tour and see whatever I can that I don't really care HOW I WIN...

I was excited about the "test kitchen" seminar until I read the desciption. It sounds strangely like the "new product" one last summer that was horrible.

Still haven't decided what I am taking.

Janet~

<positive thinking and prayer>
I am taking that one too! I think we will have to just think positive that this will be a great workshop to attend!! If it was really bad last year, maybe they made some really good improvements!
</positive thinking and prayer>:p :p :p
 
Hey - are we in that together? I'll have to go back and look...
 
Just checked - nope, but I'm in it with Rae and I think Kristi and a few others.. :)
 
I wasn't at NC last year, so I'll have to take your word that it was bad. In 2005, I went to a workshop that was, honestly, a complete waste of my time. It gave me something to laugh about later with my friends.It was truly awful. I didn't learn a thing. It was right after lunch. The room was hot, so I got really sleepy. Of course, I sat on the front row, so I couldn't even take the opportunity to catch a few winks. Gave me a lot of ammo for my stand-up routine. http://www.thesmilies.com/smilies/happy0014.gif
 
So here is what I did.....

Good luck on finding someone. I will be alone also at the Hilton and am not looking forward to the check out bill. I think that while in my spare time I might try to scout out less expenive hotels in the area for next time.

By the way, if anyone is interested in hearing from Lyn Conway, prior to attending conference, check out her website:
www.getafreshperspective.com

She's got a free email she sends out each weekday. Typically, it is very encouraging, business-related quotes, etc. to help you in you business. She is wonderful, and I can't wait to meet her in Chicago!!
 
Oh, I didn't clarify in my last post, but Lyn Conway is the special guest speaker at Conference, just in case you didn't catch that....!!
