Hello! Does anyone that works downtown want to meet up for happy hour next Wednesday? Maybe even some fellow KPMG folks? I've been at my company for a year but have been having a hard time making meaningful connections in my current office.

I was thinking either

Angleshare, Sombuca, or Little Dipper
But I'm open to suggestions!

This is for next Wednesday at 5pm

1. Would you recommend living in Pearland?
2. What are other good areas to live in? Safe and would like to be less than 1 hour from Galveston.
