Yeah. So glad you made this fishbowl. I’ve considered leaving this industry in general... i just find it hard to find good ppl. “Bad company corrupts goods morals” (might be butchering).

I’ve been in your shoes. It’s really hard for me to find people that I can be really friends with in this industry.

But I kinda find it interesting that God placed me in this industry.

I keep imagining how the disciples felt when they had been giving the task of spreading the gospel, since they knew they were only 12 dudes.

Therefore, I decided to stick around and be the best Christian I can, because maybe I’m one of the twelve among this big industry.

God has called all of us to be missionaries and to minister and make disciples. We just need to throw away the paradigm of missionaries being these people who go overseas to evangelize. The work we are in, the sphere of influence that we inhabit, wherever God has led you to, that is your mission field. We can all work in a kingdom minded way and exude Christ's fragrance, even in an industry such as ours....Especially in an industry such as ours.

Good Afternoon. I have been with my current company for ten months. They quickly realized that I was overqualified for the position I was given. I have been increasingly given more responsibility and even more side projects. I have also been proactive and searching for internal positions that fit my skill set. Can I get suggestions on when would be the opportune time to ask for a raise? Should I wait until my one year anniversary? How should I go about this?
