11/12 When I say employment, I don't mean me. I have never taken a dime from my writing on @dagersytem or @CanIPlayThat, but that doesn't matter. It is such a privilege to work with talented disabled people.
10/12 It's our hope to expand our current pool of freelance editors, both adding more disabled journalists to the team as well as expanding to part time and full time employment.
9/12 Now @DAGERSYSTEM has grown and acquired @CanIPlayThat and it's our dream to create an environment where no disabled person is denied their dream job because accommodations are too expensive.
8/12 My experiences at @gameinformer were enough to inspire me to create @DAGERSYSTEM which at the time was the only website covering the accessibility of games. In time my little operation grew as people like @rhia29 and @Jeremy_Peeples got in touch & asked to produce content.
7/12 To be clear, I’m not angry at anyone involved in this situation. Its all too common that unless a company is worth many millions of dollars, it is often cost prohibitive to hire profoundly disabled individuals, but the death of that dream job saw the birth of another.
6/12 They likely would have had to build or purchase a new building that was fully ADA accessible in addition to all of the regular expenses of adding a new employee to their pool.
5/12 After months of silence, it became clear that despite the company’s large size and best intentions, meeting the state requirements for hiring a disabled person would be prohibitively expensive for them.
4/12 Despite this, they told me "Don’t say IF we can hire you, but WHEN. Because we are going to hire you." For months, I was ecstatic. I was fresh out of college and I had just been offered my dream job at a major game journalism outlet, but that’s as far as the dream went.
3/12 As a result of that article, I was offered a job at a major games journalism outlet, specifically covering video game accessibility. I was skeptical at first, because I knew how much it would cost to hire someone with my needs. Hiring disabled people isn't cheap.
2/12 10 years ago I was an intern at @gameinformer Magazine. I was graciously allowed to write an article titled: Game Accessibility - What It Is and Why It Matters (gameinformer.com/b/features/arc…)
