Post Chicago Loop Lunch Potluck (CLLP)


,

Thanks to all those who came to the CLLP. It was a great turnout more than I had expected. Luckily CHASE Tower had plenty of seats and cafeteria had a nice selection of food. We shared food/water & laughs and got a chance to get to know each other. After lunch, nobody wanted to get some dum ki chai from india express and watch desi songs not one but two plasma t.v's....well maybe next time.

I should've mentioned that this event was open to anyone who was downtown and not just working professionals...i think i may have excluded a good number of college students and I apologize for that. I do have another event planned but date is still TBD and it'll be geared towards providing insight into the lives of IT professionals and where students who are interested in the IT field can get concrete answers to some of the questions they might have regarding their chosen career path. For example, what classes do i really need to take, what's HOT right now, do's and dont's etc.. Please look for it in the events section.

till then khz

Osman

Osman, thanks for organizing this. it was a great chance to meet others and put actually names to faces. I know many times i pass by these same muslims at jummah and don't give it a second thought. I was really good to learn names and find out more about the muslim community around me.

For those who didn't attend or are thinking about it, it is basically just lunch. No agenda or anything special. Just a quick way to meet people and share a few laughs. In our hustle and bustle life, it is hard to take a timeout and get to know someone you have never met before. This lunch provides a great oppurtunity. Please spread the word on the next lunch and let's keep this thing growing, inshallah.
