@enqueue_russ Someone else said in a talk I saw ages back that their whole dev company spends the last couple of hours on Friday each week drinking beers and answering questions in the support forums. I’ve always thought that was next-level decent behaviour.

@AdamThomson WebDev Does that

@AdamThomson Happiness Bar is where anyone can ask others at the meetup for help. It comes from WordCamps, where there is usually a designated area to go get help from a volunteer.

Yeah @jasontucker you live streamed our meetup once. The other downside to live streams is that some members don’t show up because of the live stream.
