ATL Networking Guide
Professional Events This Week and What’s Ahead
Hey hey,
Hope the year’s getting off to a good start for you and Atlanta’s treating you right so far. Professional events are ramping up around the metro Atlanta area and the weather is being random as always.
The Space:
No major announcements in my small reserved area that I call “The Space.” Expect continuous updates to the substack as more information is inputted. Everything should be completed before the end of the month!
That’s the only announcement for this week folks, have a great week!
Random Fact: Ever wondered where we get the saying “cold shoulder” from? Of course you have! Here is your answer.
The first recorded use of this phrase dates back to the early 1800s. It refers to an old custom of giving an unwelcome guest a cold piece of meat from the shoulder of mutton, pork, or beef chop, as opposed to a welcome guest receiving a warm serving. This was a polite way to communicate, “You may leave, now.”
