I worked for Tribune Media Services, doing the TV Listings information. Sounds interesting, until you realize that they put me on the most boring channels and my whole time there was pretty awful.
The best part of working in GF was watching the hockey games. The city was nice too, despite, like you said, being in the middle of a winter nightmare.
But I live in Nebraska now and it's just as bad, if not worse than winters in upstate NY.

As someone who worked in Glens Falls for a year, how much did you enjoy the hockey atmosphere there?
I went to about 15 to 20 games while I lived there and it was one of my favorite sports atmosphere ever.

I'm from Florida originally, so I'm a Lightning fan, but most of my mother's family is from upstate NY north around the Albany area.
I just happened to live in Upstate NY about 30 minutes south of Glens Falls for a year around 2001-2002 and there was nothing to do except go to hockey games after when I worked in Glens Falls. They were Adirondack IceHawks back then, but they had a lot of Red Wings history still.
Also I miss the Dog Shack, still the best hot dogs I've ever had anywhere.

Probably way different from when I was there. There were some good people that were there and I liked a lot of my co-workers. I don't think it was a bad company, but it didn't work out for me.
As someone who almost went into the sports reporting field, I envy your job at times (especially since it's with my favorite team) but I also know that it's definitely not all fun. I have a great career now, so it all worked out.

What is your favorite Mech and why is it Awesome?
For my real question, how does it feel to work with one of the best game designers of all time, Jordan Weisman? He's been a part of the creation of some of my favorite games, it would be very cool for me to learn from him as a hobbyist game designer.
