[IL-Talk] Wanting to touch base

[chicago.president at nfbofillinois.org]

Hi Everyone,
We are welcome to stay around afterwards. We just need to consolidate after the meeting and take up 1, 2 or 3 tables. We don't need to do ten to a table. But we definitely need to consolidate.
In March, many of us stayed around until 4 PM. I think Friday's will be like any other restaurant - as long as you are drinking or eating, you will be fine.
Please remember to bring cash or settle up with the person taking care of the bill because Friday's system does not allow for separate checks.
Thank you.

Hi Pam,
I just thought I would let you know that at this new place where we are, they don’t allow us to hang around as long as we used to when we were in Exchequer, so you might wanna adjust your ride back accordingly.
Just FYI
