Ben Greene reacted on thisBen Greene reacted on thisI wish more people understood what prolonged unemployment does to someone, especially in games right now. Losing your job is one thing. Spending one, two, or more years desperately searching without knowing when it will end is another. I should know: I have a few thousand people on my lists who have been looking for two years or longer. Every morning brings the same uncertainty. You check openings, apply, contact people, follow up on interviews, and wonder what else you can try. Weeks become months. Months become years. Applications disappear without answers. Interviews go nowhere. You can search all day and feel the world passing you by. Meanwhile, life doesn't stop. The mortgage, insurance, childcare, food, and debt still need paying while your savings disappear. I know people who have sold homes, exhausted retirement accounts, moved across the country, or moved in with relatives just to get by. And what happens when it happens AGAIN? Our tracking suggests roughly one in four games workers laid off since 2022 have faced another layoff. Around 5% have been laid off three or more times. I know couples who have both lost their jobs, sometimes repeatedly. Imagine rebuilding your finances and sense of security only to have it taken away again. These are people I speak with constantly, people who have given years or decades to games. Here's what especially bothers me. Why do so many people lecture those who have been unemployed for months or years as though they're infants who don't understand the basics of looking for work? So much advice seems to assume that unemployment must mean someone is doing something wrong, that they've somehow missed an obvious solution everyone else can see. It's incredibly patronizing and I try very hard never to make anybody feel this way. Of course advice and coaching can help. That's a huge part of ASGC. But thoughtful support is not the same as talking down to someone who knows their own circumstances better than you do. I know people who have put thousands of hours into doing everything they're told to do and still haven't found work. Most don't want pity. They want a fair chance to work, provide for their families, and feel secure again. After four years speaking with tens of thousands of games workers, I've learned how much pain can lie behind words you see online. Before judging someone's frustration, think about what they may have endured. Talk to them. Listen. Try to understand. Above all, give people some grace. There are so many good people in our industry who have been through more than most of us realize.

Ben Greene reacted on thisBen Greene reacted on thisTwo months ago, I got the best news and joined Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast as Internal Communications Manager! 🎉 It's been a whirlwind few months, and I couldn't be more thankful for where I've landed. In my short time here, I've been blown away by the caliber of people I've met and continue to meet every week. The kid in me who grew up with My Little Pony 🐎 still can't believe this is my job. And now I get to be part of the Magic: The Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons community, alongside the incredible people who bring these games to life. Someone pinch me. 🍀 Grateful for this journey and everything still to come! ❤️ #newjob #hasbro #wizardsofthecoast #mylittlepony #mtg #dnd

Ben Greene reacted on thisBen Greene reacted on thisThe internet wasn't always this…exhausting. Today's internet tracks you, interrupts you, and asks for permissions it already took. But it wasn't always that way, and it's not how it's supposed to work. It's how a few companies decided it should work, because it pays. We're making a different bet at Firefox. Remember us? Well, we're still here, and we don't think the internet should be like this. We’ve been hard at work innovating all year, blocking trackers, giving people choice about when to use AI if at all, shipping a modern new design, developing a version for businesses to use, signing new partners, and stepping into cultural moments to speak up for a better way. Because we remember the internet as it used to be, and we want to bring it back. In that nostalgic spirit, check out the new campaign we did, with some of the people who made the internet the fun, weird, interesting place it was and can be again. The internet’s future isn’t decided. We all have a say in what comes next. And that’s worth coming back for. There’s a lot more to come. Welcome back to Firefox.
