A Message from The Breakfast Club NJ Founder Frank Kovacs
All TBCNJers,
It is with great regret that for only the second time since forming the breakfast club that we must cancel this months meeting.
Given the current weather outlook and time we must afford the hotel the prudent decision is to cancel and keep all our members safe
Feel free to go to 1077thebeonc.com and listen to some of our archived shows from You're career is calling from the safety of your home on various job search topics
Be safe and happy holidays and a happy new year to all!
Frank Kovacs
Founder, TBCNJ
Best regards,
Brian Mecca
