The Friday Night Exhale: Tacos & Taps
Sat, Jun 6, 1:00 AM**The Friday Night Exhale @ Wondrous Brewery in Emeryville** Let’s kick off the weekend by trading our professional hats for something a bit more human. Join us for a night of good craft and real conversation. We spend enough time being "on" in our careers—tonight, let’s just be people. I’m looking forward to hearing about your favorite travel memories, the music that gets you through the week, or the board game you're secretly a nerd for—the stuff that makes you *you* outside of the office. **The Details:** * **The Vibe:** Low-stakes and high-quality. Let’s leave the LinkedIn talk, business cards, and politics at the office. We’re here to exhale, not debate! This group is open to all genders, sexualities, and backgrounds. * **Seating:** We’re capping under 20 people across a few smaller tables in the outdoor area so we can move around and keep the conversation flowing. * **Food:** BYO-Eats! There's a Mexican spot on the corner with great tacos—feel free to grab some and bring them over! * **Furry Friends:** The patio is dog-friendly, so feel free to bring your pup. * **The Fun:** I’ll be bringing a few board games and conversation starters to break the ice. Look for me in the **brown boots and jean jacket** when you arrive—I can’t wait to meet you! *** ***
