I enjoy playing video games and am considering becoming a video game designer. Is it better to go in to a regular computer science degree or some other specialized computer or graphics program?

There are many schools that offer computer science degrees but not as many that offer video game design as a major. What option is better for a career in this field? #engineer #computer #software #it

How do you approach your boss about asking for a raise?

I work at a marina during the school year and I recently got promoted to a supervisor. Is it appropriate to ask for a wage since I am monitoring other workers? There is more responsibility but I just started the new position. #work #supervisor #dockhand #marina #raise
