Have heard some rumours that more FS jobs have (or soon to be) been established - anyone know any gen about that?

I am carefully considering my future within the mob at this moment in time and to help me gauge where I am (if you actually can of course...) was wondering if anyone knows any gen:

a. How many have been promoted to FS this year (intersting to know how many tunred it down and what number they actualy got to)
b. How many FS posts there actually are nowadays
c. How many for next year
d. Future predictions.........

At this moment in time I will probably PVR (I can hear the Cpl's cheering now), in the ideal world (not sure where this is though!) I would hope to be a wee bit higher next time round as my latest report is (arguably) my best ever and although obviously some more will join the party I would like to think that I can improve on my previous position and be a very strong candidate this time round.

From the sounds of it through EG and elsewhere, there are many many people who are considering their futures. I am just about fed-up to the back teeth of waiting around for another promotion. The step to FS is, I know often a long wait.....but gee am I piffed off waiting.......!!!

Anyway, be great to hear some thoughts of people in a similar position or not. I will advise of what I decide when my wife tells me our decision!!!! lol

Good luck
 
I think this years has just closed with 29 promoted.

I know exactly where your coming from regarding fed up of waiting, I'll fulfil my full TOS to 47 but will desparately dissapointed and feel cheated if I haven't made it to FS with another 8.5 yrs to go by then. :S
