Q Talk

[ceapurl]

I just noticed that 4-5 new hosts have been hired over the past month or so. The only host who left that I know of was Albany. Are others getting ready to retire? The main host page with all their pictures hasn't changed. I haven't been watching as much with summer here. Please clarify for me. Thank you.

If I were to take a guess, I would say it isn't so much that hosts are leaving, but that now they've got a couple other channels to fill.

They started the beauty channel and a QVC 2, so they must need more hosts.

My guess.

Jacque Gonzales left since Albany, but they added more live shows to Qvc2.

I know a couple of hosts I wish were leaving.  Maybe if we all relayed our best wishes for a successful future, blah, blah, they wouldn't have the nerve to stick around?

Their second channel went from a few hours a week live programming as QVC Plus to 40 live hours and 2 hours live-to-tape a week as QVC2. Beauty iQ has 20 live hours a week. That's about 25 more host shifts. They need the additional 5 hosts. QVC also has two hosts on medical leave right now and one on maternity leave. Have you noticed most of the hosts a taking three or four hour shifts lately? They might appreciate having some more hosts around to lighten the load.

who is on medical and maturnity leave?

[AuntG]

Some hosts are working up to four hour shifts; Oh my gosh! At least they get paid well for that kind of dedication.

I don't know about medical leave, but I believe that Shawn Killinger is on maternity leave.

[shaggygirl]

Mary is on a medical leave, believe she had some sort of surgery, but due back soon I think.

Where did Jacque Gonzalez go? One roof the new hosts who made a quick debut on June 30, is on maternity leave too. She is due at the end of July. Didn't know about all the changes. Thank you.
