SSA picked up some great new judges today, that's for sure! but it seems like another fairly slow day overall in hiring. or is it just me? So thankful Gaidin got the info he did, that there's still lots of calls to make. hopefully, a lot more of us get good news soon! and let's keep those scores dropping just a bit more (so don't forget to vote, those of you that got picked up)!

Just got the call about an hour ago and got my first choice city. Congratulations, Judge Tiger! That's a heck of a second post! Just to get a feel for where we are for the June-July classes, are you reporting to your new location in June?

Will the next person confirming a hire please indicate a starting date? It feels as if ODAR might be close to filling up the June class and moving on to July. Your confirmation of a starting date upon receipt of offer would definitely help the rest of us waiting for The Call to get a better sense for how far along in the calling process ODAR is right now.
Thank you, and congratulations to all new Federal Judges! Let it roll off the tongue (perhaps along with some fine scotch) -- You are now a Federal Judge. Accomplishment after hard work, perseverance and patience is a beautiful thing, isn't it?

Congrats, Luckylady2. So happy for you. Welcome to the Corps, if I can say that after having received the call myself only 2 days ago!

Congrats Tiger, stay in the ALJ group longer than Tiger from the Brady Bunch, I think he only lasted a few seasons, but they did keep his dog house around for the rest of the show I think. The ALJ group got a good one with Tiger, Congrats well deserved.

We have preciously established I am bad at math. But if there are 3 classes (June, July, September) and 107 is split between June and July as you say, then doesn't it take way more than 60 to get to 225 by Oct. 1? I think the 225 is the total they hope to hire for this FY. That total would include the early 2016 class. I have it on good authority that at least the original plan was for two groups of around 50 each to be trained at the same time - don't know if this concept was kept but if so, that could be the 107...and 52 reported to have been hired so far this year might be the February class 47 plus some who were deferred to June - although 6 of the 47 actually were hired in 2015 and allowed to defer to Feb. The numbers are hard to reconcile but I'm glad many of you have gotten/are getting the call!

...vote in the polls and PM someone for a confirmation of the location, if you haven't already done so. Pixie. Last count I made was 29 NOR votes and 35 location votes, not considering whether they were confirmed or not. If intel is correct and we assume that a lot of folks don't participate on this board, they may be done for June 28. Keep the votes coming.

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. OMG, CONGRATULATIONS GAIDIN!!! One thing is for certain, we don't need a poll to poll who is the most deserving of being imminently enrobed. God only knows how many hours Gaidin has selflessly devoted to others on these pages, again and again and again. Gaidin has a good heart, as my long passed Grandmother would have said. That and an incredible work ethic...Both will serve him well in the years ahead in this new profession he has chosen. Welcome to the Corps!

Welcome to the corps and I hope many more of you get similar calls in the near future. One HOCALJ I worked with told me that this is the best job for an attorney in government and I agree with him. The only better job has got to be Bob's. I respectfully disagree. This is the best job, period. I could be a partner in a major law firm who makes a million a year doing nothing but rainmaking and this job would smoke it in a quarter mile. For this job hits all the buttons: security, prestige, enough $ to be more than successful and happy and YUUGE satisfaction!
