I've been a creative working in agency for about 8 years now, and I'm really feeling the urge to pursue something I'm more passionate about. Gaming is an industry I'm practically obsessed about and I would cherish the opportunity to work within that sector. Any tips/advice/leads as to how I can do that? Thanks friends!

I’m currently a first-year business student and stuck deciding between pursuing a Spanish or UX design minor. I had originally planned on a Spanish minor, but recently UX design has become a lot more appealing. Which would you suppose provides more career prospects? I know Spanish would help in a broader sense, but I feel like UX might help me find a cool job niche in business. Do you think it is likely that I will end up using my UX minor in business jobs? Any thoughts are much appreciated!

Trying to evaluate monetary offers is difficult since I receive a significant bonus for maintaining my clearance (120k + 30k for the clearance). So I’m evaluating a non-cleared offer for 180k. I don’t want to hold the clearance anymore. Should I evaluate it against the 120 or the 150 in terms of answering the question “is the jump big enough to leave?” With bonus and without clearance, it’s a 40% or so jump, but only a 12-15% jump with only bonus and base included.

I feel like I belong on my team, but lately, it's been a lot of why's in the world in my mind. I would love if our team/company can be a bit more process driven than just "oh hey you're a thought leader, we'll do as you say, we'd love to hear your thoughts!", But then never actually really have any decisions solidified and reliant on me as the new recruit to pave the way, then I feel like I'm being bossy.

(1/2)Has anyone ever had their contract end early with no warning? I was hired as an “agile social designer” for a big box retailer as a freelancer. The gig posting said it was a couple months (until the end of june) but when I interviewed they said they were actually gonna extend me until next February. Anyways now they’re saying the whole agile team may be eliminated and I didn’t get any new work assigned this week… I’m kind of freaking out bc I thought I’d at least have until next month.
