Date: July 30, 2013
Event: Reception on the Floor of the NYSE
Location: New York City, Wall Street
Cost: FREE (though I had to get an invitation)
Summary: I knew this was probably a once in a life time chance to see this place, to walk into this building. I enjoyed every moment of it.
This was something I was super duper excited about. And it did not disappoint. Last week I got an email at work that said my company was hosting a reception for New York based employees -- on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. Yes. ON THE FLOOR OF THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE. I could scarcely believe it was true. I mean, *on the floor* on the floor? Really? And I'm invited? I RSVP'd immediately.
See, my company (I suspect you'll be able to guess what company that is based on the pictures that follow) recently switched from being listed on NASDAQ to being listed on the NYSE and this was a reception to celebrate that. And for me and many other employees, this was a once in a lifetime experience that we'll be grateful to our employer for!
Coolest things about the night (as well as pictures, of course!) below:
