That might be good. It would mean an audible has been called, likely reflecting a late change of plan. Maybe a last ditch effort to do the UBS JV, DL's likely only hope to gain real retention and hold the firm together. I like it.Just heard that we will not hear anything today.
I wanted to hear something today, but bad news comes on 3 day weekends. If we hear of a call scheduled from Tuesday or Wednesday, I think that could be a good omen.
This is my vote for best post in this monster thread sums it ALL up.SHOCKING, Does WFC even know what an FA is ?

"Well, we're waiting." [/quote] LOL! Thanks. We all needed a chuckle.[/quote] That is an all time classic movie[/quote] Absolutely. But we need a little inspiration for the weekend. Long live Lacey, too.Was told by a regional manager that an announcement of meeting will come later today.
The call will be "next week".“Last time a saw a face like that, it had a hook in it!”

[/quote] "Just be calm. I've got it right here."A recruiter some of you mention here cold called me this AM. He works for Wachovia among others. I asked him what he’s hearing on WS retention as he talks with loads of ISG and PCG managers during a given week. He said the pressure to bring in “NEW” FA flow into their pipelines is on. He said the heat is really on the ISG channel as there’s huge turnover expected and already happening.

Al Czervik: Oh, it looks good on you though.

My theory.....chaos in St. Louis....
[/quote] Mine: Either of two scenarios: 1 -- Still working on UBS JV and putting us on hold for the time being, 2 -- Know (via feedback from meetings this week) that reaction will be bad enough that they're trying to take the 3 day (read moving time) weekend out of play and hit us with us at the start of a week.
