Miss the previous meeting? Here’s a recap!

Looking to catch up with your Upper West Side neighbors?
Check out our ongoing Upper West Side chat series!

WHAT IS THIS?
I run into a bunch of people who work from home, and a lot of times this statement, in some form, creeps its way into the conversation:

I love working from home, but I miss the office chatter now and then.

As someone who also works from home, it’d be great to get out every-so-often and meet folks who are doing the same thing. Facing the same challenges. Overcoming the same obstacles. Relishing in the same successes.

So, I thought it’d be fun to put something on the calendar, maybe once a month, to meet these folks. I’m hoping it’s something you’d find interesting and join us.
 
WHO’S ATTENDING?
A bunch of us – we’ve seen the group grow six-fold in the first few meetings. Lawyers, advertisers, marketers, financial advisors, technologists – we’ve had an amazing mix of talented attendees!
 
WHY SHOULD I JOIN?
You’ll meet like-minded folks and discuss topics that are sure to hit home. At the very worst, it’s a chance to meet some of your neighbors and relax at a terrific bar.
 
WHEN IS THIS?

• Date: Wednesday, February 22
• Start Time: 2:00 PM
• End Time: 4:00 PM

A few folks have stopped by just to say “hi” with hopes of joining us for a future meeting, and others have stayed just for a few minutes. Feel free to stop by when it fits your schedule and for however long you can!

 
WHERE IS THIS?

• The Dead Poet
• On Amsterdam, between 81st & 82nd (map)
• On Twitter: @TheDeadPoetBar

Uh, Why The Dead Poet then?
I live in the neighborhood. Since I work from home, I also work in the neighborhood. I’m fond of the Upper West Side, so I’m keen to keep it in the neighborhood.

The Dead Poet is terrific. Great staff. Great beer selection. Great TVs. Great place to catch a morning / afternoon soccer match. Great bar.

And a great place to meet up.
