Our first in-person IT Misfits meetup! Wednesday, September 9th WHO: Techs curious about standup comedy WHAT: This is a casual get-together to talk about this crazy world of tech, share stories, talk about what drives us crazy, and hang out with some other people who get it. We'll do a few informal exercises so you can feel what it's actually like to stand at a mic and say the thing you've always wanted to say at work. No performance pressure, no experience required. Just a chance to see what happens when tech people stop filtering themselves for an hour. Space is limited. If you've been curious about what IT Misfits actually does, this is the easiest way to find out. **No food or drinks will be provided, or available at the venue, so please eat before you arrive.** WHERE: StandUp Live Phoenix PARKING is available at CityScape Parking, under the comedy club, and we can validate for up to 2 hours. #networking #tech #comedy
