@AZluvSounders That reminds me - someone was eating a hotdog behind me at the last game and it smelled sooooooo good!

@AZluvSounders I had no idea they did this either. What a fun idea!

Who knew?🤷‍♀️ First I have heard of it also but kind of fun.

@Spartan Sending love and hugs ♥️

@FootedPanda Thank you so much for all that info. Miss you and hope you're well! 💗

@bsangel @DustStorm Another group I’m following is @Mission22 . I don’t think they have anything gaming related but it’s another military centric group that focuses on Veteran support when discussing suicide. Great group of people work here in the AZ chapter :)

Hi, friends! 👋🏾 I have a huge favor to ask. Do you know somebody who works at a gaming non-profit? And are they looking for an amazing, experienced, video-game-loving Program Manager to join their team? If so, I would greatly appreciate an introduction! Context:➡️

@LeviWasTaken I love that!! You are so talented - they are extremely lucky to have you. Is there anything I can see? I'd love to take a peek!

@Wondermonkey2k @herobyclicking Thank you for the connection, Sal! 💗 Lou, it's super nice to meet you. I'm going to spend some time digging into your amazing organization. 🤗

@TheRevPlays @ShanghaiSix Thank you for the connection, Brandon! 💗 Best of luck with your search and mission, Steve. Wishing you well!

@ShanghaiSix @bsangel Ah okay.

@_Sanana94 @ZachWigal Thank you for the connection, Marco! Zach, I sent an email to Walter. I hope you and your pizza are well! 🍕💗🎉

@bsangel @ZachWigal 👀

@StackUpDotOrg @FootedPanda @DustStorm @weareosd @GamersOutreach Thank you so much for all the leads and kind words. I really appreciate it! 💗

@FootedPanda @bsangel @DustStorm @weareosd @GamersOutreach Is it branched off when the founder of Stack Up was also the founder of OSD? We have a pretty great Program Manager already, but there are plenty of gaming nonprofits out there, so we wish the OP luck!

@jennpanattoni @PostumsPersonal Thank you so much for the connection, @PostumsPersonal 💗 Jenn, I sent you a DM. Thank you for your kindness!

@AlphaIOmega @Xariun Thank you for the intro, Zane! 🙏🏾 Hi, @Xariun. When I worked for 343, I partnered with your organization numerous times! Please let me know if you find yourself in the need of a PM, or if you're open to chatting about potential future opportunities. Thank you for considering! 🤗

@MaryKay15 @NerdGallagher @MakeAWish That sounds like a really difficult time. I love that a HS teacher reached out to him recently about a logo redesign - such great validation of his amazing skills!

@bsangel @NerdGallagher @MakeAWish When he got really sick right after Uni graduation, he felt so lousy that whole summer, it was really tough for him to want to do anything. Please been feeling much better since 2019. Recently a HS teacher reached out to ask him if he'd want to redo a logo for him, we'll see!

@iNocturne That sounds like a fun and challenging project! Maybe I'll take this time to learn something new like that, too. Could be fun. 🤗

@bsangel True , everything is going forward like usual here :d learning unreal engine on my own time hopefully will lead to something hopefully. But its otherwise fun to just learn something new. But i am glad its good spite all the layoffs it sucks. I hope you find something fast.

@MaryKay15 Great advice. Thank you so much!! 🙏🏾

@bsangel @NerdGallagher @MakeAWish "Best place might be to check LinkedIn and connect with others. Then there's GDC coming up in March in San Francisco, the huge Game Developers Conference. Pricey, but might be worth it for the connections. Also, join mastodon.gamedev.place and get to know others there."

@DustStorm @weareosd @GamersOutreach Great minds think alike! I checked out @GamersOutreach earlier today. They don't have any openings right now, but I do hope they'll keep me in mind in the future! I'll check out @weareosd. Thank you so much for the lead, Dustin. 💗

@bsangel Don't know if @weareosd or @GamersOutreach are looking for folks, but those are the two that come to mind first.

@MarkietheFett @NerdGallagher Thank you, Mark! I am sure we will land on our feet, hopefully sooner rather than later. 😊

@bsangel @NerdGallagher I'm sorry to hear about the layoffs. I really hope you all find something soon.

@iNocturne Hey, you! Things are good here, yes. Sometimes a push out of the nest is needed to lead you on your next adventure. I'm really focused on living my best life right now. 💃🏾 How are you? I hope well, too?

@bsangel @NerdGallagher Sorry about the layoffs 😟 i havent heard from you in a while but hope all is good still.

@MaryKay15 @NerdGallagher Mary! 💗 I'm so sorry to hear about Tom also losing his job. It's rough out there right now, that's for sure. Thank you so much for the lead at Spoutible. I really appreciate it! Sending you love and hugs 🤗 (I applied for a role at @MakeAWish earlier this week!)

@bsangel @NerdGallagher Jessica -Tom was bummed to hear about your layoff. We all appreciate what you and the 343 crew have done for Tom on his Make -A-Wish, and beyond. I just met a game dev guy at Spoutible, I'll holler at him. (Tom's been at Bed Bath for the last year and is also losing his job) 🥴

@Samos89 @tiltify @projecthopeorg @tiltify, time permitting, could you let me know if any non-profits on your radar are looking to hire in the program management space? I'll happily return the favor! 🙏🏾 I'll take a look at @projecthopeorg now. Thank you so much for the leads, @Samos89! 💗

@bsangel Hey! @tiltify might know of non-profits looking to hire, I think @projecthopeorg have some openings too and their gaming leg is growing all the time
