              I believe that was included in the price 😉

                  No drugs, no alcohol, and no hookers are included in that price.

                      I always any attend any conference that I am able to attend, except where I don't attend as a reason of principle. If you're getting the time from work, and they're footing the bill, frickin' go! Even if you're not super interested, you can attend some sessions, learn some stuff (if you learn at least 5 new things, it can be worth it), and you can network with your peers. Maybe you can drop some mangolassi business cards, not to mention the swag and prizes.

                        I agree, conferences can be good. And when they are bad, pull out the laptop and work at them.

                          I'd be willing to pass out a few mango cards.

                            I'm sure that @Minion-Queen can round some up for you.

                              That explains a lot about the SpiceWorld I got to.

                                    The only sessions I attend I am either speaking at or one of my team is. Other than that I talk to vendors.

                                            Yeah, but talking to vendors at the booths was almost as bad, except a couple out in the hallway that had a clue. Next time I go to one of those, I'm just going to be a @scottalanmiller stalker, bet I'd actually learn something.
