Beer Nuts: A PB&J Snack
Join like-minded tech people for a lightly-facilitated happy hour, with peanuts.
Product Builders & Joy is a support community for technologists. We do facilitated workshops every six weeks; our next will be on 6 May. In between, we're experimenting with a lighter format we call Beer Nuts.
PB&J? What's that?
Many of us got into this business for the joy of building something great with like-minded people. But these days, that’s lost in a sea of metrics, growth, OKRs, quarterly planning, fundraising, and managing up. Those aren’t a substitute for the fun of building together.
PB&J (Get it? Get it??) is a support community for PMs, designers, founders, engineers, and other technologists who want to build great products with healthy teams, live satisfying lives, and have fun along the way.
About Beer Nuts
Beer Nuts is a straightforward happy hour to tide you over between our workshops, with some fun discussion topics so you don't have to keep asking, "So, what do you do?" all night. The hat from our last workshop will make an appearance as well.
Our venue, Muted Horn, focuses on craft beer but offers other drinks (alcoholic and non), and peanuts—and true to brand, the first ten bowls of peanuts are on us.
And again: our next workshop, PB&J III: Revenge of the Sandwich, is coming up on 6 May.
