Don’t forget that one week from tonight, CMS geeks from around the Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex will be descending on The Flying Saucer in Addison to have a couple of drinks and to talk shop. The event is free to attend, but if you RSVP I’ll be able to give them a heads up on how many are coming.
So far, it looks like we’ll have a good mix of folks from internal IT shops, Systems Integrators, consultants, and product companies. It also looks like both proprietary and open source models will be represented.
The meetup is being modeled on others that have been successful in New York, San Francisco, and other parts of the world (see Twitter hashtag #LastThursdayCMS). The goal is to simply network with others working in this space. Hard selling and/or obnoxious recruiting will be dealt with in some sort of socially awkward manner TBD.
If the turnout is good and there is continued interest, we’ll do it again on the last Thursday of every month.
Looking forward to seeing you there.
Maybe “recruiting sculls”? Every sneaky recruiting action requires the initiator to scull one of whatever they’re drinking.
I would hate to see the really shameful violators get so drunk they couldn’t drive home. To quote an 80’s movie, and in keeping with the Texas theme, “Well, I say we hire a couple’a wranglers to go upstairs and beat the shit out of him.”
