Apartment happy hour event in Hollywood

 I was invited to Vida apartments in Hollywood.  Vida Hollywood Apts   The apartment buildings look nice and well kept outside.  I liked the paint scheme.  The management staff ladies were so incredibly cool.  Shanique, Alma, and Jo were friendly and fun down to earth people.  Helpful and friendly.

It was so much fun.  The tenants that came by were all so cool and friendly.   Each was unique and there were a variety of backgrounds.  People from Morraco, to I believe Honduras.   It was cool to see such a diverse crowd hanging out and mingling.   I was able to share my story with a few people.  It was nice to see how interested people were in how I got into this.  

Lesson learned from.   Be prepared and have back ups.  I printed a menu with the cocktails, beer and wine.  However when I arrived I discovered there would be no beer and wine, just the cocktails.  So I couldn't use the printed menu.  I pulled out my  Tablet (iPad) and updated the menu on it, the placed it on my stand.   It worked great.  I almost always bring my iPad in case clients want to make changes to the estimate or to send invoices on the spot.    Using it for a menu made me nervous.  I've had guest knock over my framed menu and break it so I was watching my iPad closely.  This is my business machine and didn't want all my documentation lost.   Fortunately no one was intoxicated and no one knocked over anything.   I will make it standard to my iPad all the time for these types of situations.
