’Tis the season. Party time. This year you can mix it up as the NBMA’s “Big
Event” team joins with the Job Connections SIG for a holiday romp at the
Embassy Suites Hotel (just west of NBMA’s usual meeting place at Autodesk).
That means you get to choose. You can naughty or you can be nice.
For the purely fun-minded, there’ll be music, dancing, free hors d’oeuvres
(and a no-host bar), and a fund-raising raffle (software, books, and other
goodies). If the music is too loud, wander over to the mini-High Anxiety
atrium or into the karaoke bar and have your ears offended in a different way.
The nice part is that Job Connections SIG Leader Myrna Faulds promises the
presence of HR recruiters as well as other industry insiders, so the job
seekers can combine a little business with some guilt-free pleasure.
A nicer part is that the spirit of the season is not forgotten. Those who
are able are asked to bring an unwrapped new toy for a child under twelve.
The NBMA has chosen a North Bay charity to work with so that 100% of your
good will goes to the needy.
A mahvelous time should be had by all. Friends from holidays past, present
and future will be there. Come meet, eat, move your lips and/or feet, or
just plain job seek.
