As some of you may or may not know, Pat has been "between jobs" for a while now. One short month after Pat accepted what seemed like a great new job opportunity at Locomotive Games, the company was shut down by its publisher, THQ. This was in November. We have tried to remain optimistic and trust that something will work out, and for the most part, we have. However, having a baby on the way has certainly added to the stress of the situation. Pat worked hard at polishing his demo reel, and he tried to keep his eyes open to any job opportunities that came his way.
Recently, Pat's good friend Rich mentioned a marketing art position at EA games. Pat thought that he might be a good fit, and Rich referred him. Some time passed (maybe a couple of weeks) and as of today, Pat is officially employed again! We are feeling so grateful and blessed. The job is only a three month contract for now, but it will hopefully lead to more opportunities in the near future. We will certainly take what we can get at this point!
That's awesome Pat! Congrats cuz. Will be "thinking" bout you guys here on the rooftop.
