SourceCon Community, 

Are you enjoying your Memorial Day weekend? I hope so. I am. At this writing, my plans are simple: eat, sleep. repeat as necessary. Hmm… I may create a variation of that for a t-shirt soon. Oh wait, I already did. Whaddaya’ know?

;-)

And now… Sourcers Anonymous (Take 2)

At SourceCon 2024 - Orlando, I was privileged to meet four people from the community who earned a ticket to SourceCon via the "Sourcers Anonymous" (SA) program. As we are planning out SourceCon 2024 - San Diego, I want to double the number of SA recipients, starting with you. Do you have a great sourcing hack that would benefit the community, a special recruitment process that saved you time, or an experience that would make a great article? If so, please consider submitting an article for SA consideration. There is plenty of time between now and October but SourceCon 2024 - San Diego will be here before you know it. Five people have already done it, you could be number 6. Don't delay!

(And if you are a TA manager considering sending your team to the next SourceCon, the SA program is the best way to discount your expenses, next to early registration. Just sayin'...)

Umm... Okay, that's all I got for now. I look forward to hearing from you, reading your articles, and hanging out together at SourceCon San Diego 2024.

Yeah, baybeee!!!!
