Weaving Spiders

Weaving Spiders refers to Business types (individuals) networking and working on business dealings. They are spinning webs (telling their stories) of tales of success and future business opportunities.

The Bohemian Club, of fame and fortune in San Francisco, Est 1878, has a club motto of: “Weaving Spiders Come Not Here”. This implies that you are to leave your business dealing and networking tactics at the door, for this place is to be for enjoyment and relaxation.

Etymology:

The Term itself derives from Shakespeare in the Play: A Midsummers Night’s Dream, Act 2 SCENE II. Another part of the wood

Come our lovely lady nigh;
So, good night, with lullaby.
Weaving spiders, come not here;
Hence, you long-legg'd spinners, hence

The place is full of Weaving Spiders cutting their deal and planning for their next finical conquests.

Where do the Corporate types hang out in San Francisco weaving their webs and rubbing shoulders with the other Weaving Spiders?
