Congratulations to all the new hires. Very happy to see a new Brooklyn hire (or two?) I have a feeling we will be seeing lots and lots of hires in the next few years, so hang in there everyone.

Everyone, please hang in there. I have had to travel to Washington DC 10 times in an effort to get this job. 10 times. ? TEN trips. That is mind-blowing. I thought four was plenty.

Ten times is a TRIP! Three here with a 2 day "snow in" between WD/LBT and Interview on the second one. I have been trumped.
No pun intended.

There's a vote for Evansville in the polls that appears to be new. I haven't seen it confirmed yet.

Bob, Melinda, FC Peeps:
Ok folks, I got my ALPO list working, my phone with the board pulled up and some popcorn. Settling in for the show. Let's get those calls started.
Y'all know me, I am pulling for all my board brethren. But, I wanna see some long suffering legends win the game today. You nailed it with RAM. Now lets see 71stretch's persistence pay off. Ace Midnight would be a huge win for the agency. Mamaru needs a call. Of course Gaidin and gary, the two most beloved members of the board, have been waiting far too long. There are many others that would be great gets and are just waiting on y'all. Let's get em on the train today.

Congrats to those who have gotten the call, especially RAM for his amazing perseverance. What an exciting time! And although I'm a newbie, I'm already rooting for Gaiden and Gary and all the other helpful "elders" like 71Stretch and Ace Midnight too. This thread is so much more exciting than our AM obsession. I love when good things happen.

Congrats to all those getting the call! As a New Yorker myself, I'm particularly excited to see TWO hires in Brooklyn, which will be moving to Federal Plaza in Manhattan soon as well as the hire in Syracuse (my ol' stomping grounds). Just watch out for the average 30" of snow (and remarkably few closures because they're just THAT good at getting rid of the white stuff). I'm pulling for more hires in NY with the next round of certs... including myself... (knocking on wood).

So far a slow morning. We received our first post yesterday from RAM around 10 am.

Thanks for the good thoughts guys. I know I appreciate them.
For whatever reason we never seem to get reports of calls until late morning.
Good luck everyone.

Oh, please, PTB, please, PLEASE send me someone to Harlingen! It's a fabulous office and it's a surprisingly pleasant (and very inexpensive) place to live, if you don't mind heat and humidity!
