Music midtown hands down

like

I lived in Atlanta 7 years. The number one thing to do right now is to go to a soccer game. The passion this city has for the MLS team is unreal.

Edgewood, buckhead bars

like

"Edgewood, Buckhead bars" - polar opposites lol. All great suggestions though.

like

Food: antico, fox bros, krog, ponce city, marcels, ormbys,

Bars: really depends on your kinda of scene but buckhead offers a wide variety. Edgewood is fun but dark (not a racist, just how it's always been described to me as). Midtown has some places as well, a handful on crescent street and surrounding areas. Sun dial is a roof too rotating but expensive (8 bucks for a regular import beer)

Entertainment: music midtown, beltline, Olympic park

Fox bros

Thanks! I'm a soccer fan too, will check out the game for sure.

Thanks guys. I'm looking to see the "touristy" places for sure, since I've never been before. If there are shows/concerts happening that's a plus for sure. Also, can I get around using uber or does renting a car make more sense?

Music Midtown if you can score a wristband

There's also an MLS game on Saturday in the new stadium

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.

- Ashley Goodall (their SVP, Methods & Intelligence) co-authored a brilliant book on leadership and people management called “Nine Lies About Work” that makes me believe they can be an awesome place to work

Cons:

- red badgers had low morale since they’re contract workers and can be terminated at any time

Desi parents: what time do your kids go to sleep at night? We have a 23 mo and his bedtime schedule starts at 6:30 PM and he sleeps by 7 PM. This was suggested by our sleep consultant and has worked well for us, but recently we are getting a lot of hate for not bringing our toddler to evening dinners etc. We are being told that most kids sleep around 9 PM or being asked to put the toddler in one of the rooms. Every kid in my husbands family apparently doesn't sleep before 9 PM or later.
