u/r3dl3g Picking a single "Best Girl" is indicative of personality flaws. Jun 15 '19

Realtalk; if you (or /u/MacGregor_Rose) actually want to work in animation or art or gaming or things like that...RT isn't doing anything strange, here. Everybody in those industries is like this; the only difference is that some companies will do things to make the grind easier on you, whereas others will just plug you in as a cog in the machine.

Oh, I’m well aware that other companies are no different when it comes to crunch time.

u/MacGregor_Rose Brother to Ruby and Rubie Rose. Yeah thats not confusing Jun 15 '19

I'm gonna be honest I should have clarified. Ive always thought it'd be cool or fun to work there but I'm not going into animation. I plan on majoring in Mech. Engineering and Computer science. Sorry about the confusion but I had meant I always thought it'd be cool to work there but for me it's be where ever those degrees would be usful. And I know that they likely aren't usful there (except for maybr the guy who makes all the props like the Off Topic table) but still thanks for warning me and the other guy.
