Free lunch, Dinner and drinks all week long. Sweet Bills hat also.

Thurm, is this true?

Also, what is going on in the Buffalo area. I've had multiple people come in for apartments who are moving from Buffalo to Erie. That is the most ass backwards thing I've ever heard.

[THATHURMANATOR]

Is what true?

I have never heard someone moving to Erie in my life.

[RockStar36]

I was asking about the Queen city and drag queens and if that is true.

And yes, people are moving to Erie, from Buffalo. I even tell them when we are doing the paperwork that they have it backwards and should be in Buffalo.

Buffalo is named the queen city but it doesn't have anything to do with Drag Queens.

How many people? Lots or a couple.

The nickname Queen City is commonly used by cities in nations of British origin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Empire), especially in Commonwealth Realms (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonwealth_Realms) where it is used to describe the capital city (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_city) of a province (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Province) or state in honor of its country's shared head of state, Queen Elizabeth II (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_Elizabeth_II).

Auckland (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auckland), New Zealand (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Zealand) has been known as the Queen City despite no longer being the capital of New Zealand, although this moniker has largely fallen into disuse.
Charlotte, North Carolina (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlotte%2C_North_Carolina) and its county (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mecklenburg_County%2C_North_Carolina) are named after Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlotte_of_Mecklenburg-Strelitz), wife of King George III (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_George_III), and go by the Queen City or simply the "Q.C."
Regina, Saskatchewan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regina%2C_Saskatchewan) is named after Queen Victoria (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_Victoria), and is fondly referred to as the Queen City; regina is Latin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin) for queen.
Toronto (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toronto), Ontario (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontario) is sometimes referred to as Queen City, particularly by Canadian Francophones ("La Ville-Reine").The term is also used by a number of cities in the United States (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States) without any reference to British origin:

Buffalo, New York (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffalo%2C_New_York) is popularly referred to as the Queen City because it is the second largest city in the state of New York (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_City

A few. Probably like a handful so far. Just doesn't make much sense to me. The one girl is kinda hot too.

[THATHURMANATOR]

You should bang her.

I can't cheat man!

Sweet.

Yeah it is a good time because our vendor field reps are all cool as hell. It is still a stressful week though because we need to set up countless meetings with our inside and outside teams. Getting them all in the same room and having productive conversations is a task.

[Earthquake Enyart]

There is always one douche who drags meetings down.

Honestly that isn't the problem here. It is coordinating the meetings. It is very hard to just get the right people in the room at the right time. The meetings were very productive.
