I also wanted to congratulate Slainte (long wait!) I tried to do so last night but then the power went out and I gave up and went to bed.

HOORAY FOR GAIDIN!!! Congrats to the hardest working pollster on this board. Does this mean we won't have any new polling from you while you're in training?? How will we survive the next round of certs!!!
Very happy for you. Good luck. :-)

I spoke with my new best friend in FC about 15 minutes ago and I said yes as soon as he said his name. I will obviously vote in the polls. Best day in a very very very long time. He said that their were many more calls to make and that they were going to do the July calls at the same time. Now I need to go jump up and down some. Great news, congratulations!!!!!! Hope you will continue to share all your wisdom.

You have remained helpful and positive throughout this entire process, helping others who have gotten the call before you. This is just wonderful!

As we approach lunch time on the East coast, it's been a quiet a.m. I see that 34 have voted in the city poll (including an unconfirmed Peoria as I type) and 26 voted in the NOR poll. Acknowledging a few may have obtained deferrals to July, I wonder if June is full and TBTB are re-hashing the July selections. I base this WAG on the assumptions that a full class for June is 40, and that there are some selectees that know nothing of the Board. Assuming 26 NOR votes is correct, 26/40 = 65%, and I don't think there is a presumption that 65% on the current register are on this Board. My posting reminds me, I need to practice patience, stop focusing on this, and get back to my job that actually pays me. A full class is more than 40. That said, there are non-board members getting calls, undoubtedly, and all that info is not finding its way here. CONGRATULATIONS, GAIDIN!

I've gotta say, I've been secretly wondering the same over the last day or so--June should be close to maximum capacity at this point. Anyone with the goods on whether TPTB plan to just keep rolling on forward for July hires? I don't believe I've seen this definitively addressed yet. Nothing in this process is definitive until it happens.

My husband told me he's given up all hope of me ever getting the call. Talk about a downer. I'm not even on this cert. When I told him there was a chance for September, he just rolled his eyes. The same for my wife!

Way to go @gaidin !!! Couldn't have happened to a more deserving person. Enjoy every second of this day, you deserve to reep all you've sown over these years.
The class of perseverance is shaping up to be one of the most memorable ever!!
