Back (in part) amongst the working

Monday, July 6th, 2009

There was a passing reference to me being back among the ably employed in my last post. Ka-lu, ka-lay, and hip-hip-hooray, right? Well, yes, no, and maybe all apply here.

Here’s the breakdown: last Wednesday I started working with the fine folks over at OMGPOP, a game company with some stellar multiplayer Flash games and a decent upside ahead of it. Not a bad gig at all, but there is a downside: they can only afford to have me there part-time at the moment.

Yep, two months of searching and that’s the best this ecconomy will offer me. It gets me out of the apartment and off the unemployment doles, but I’d rather be there for 40 hours a week and not 20.

Sadly, life doesn’t always give us what we want, right when we want it. But I’m not complaining here, just explaining. After all, good things come to those who wait, and right now, patience is a virtue I have no choice but to exercise.
