I know this is a bit random for SG but
I'm doing research for the jobs I want to do when I'm older. If you answer please could you put whether you are an animator, comic-book artist or graphic designer.

  1. Did you want to do this job as a child?
  2. When did you start doing this job?
  3. What is your favourite part of the job?
  4. Did you need any GCSEs or A-Levels? (This might be different to the UK)
  5. Do you enjoy this job?
  6. When would you want to retire? (if you do)
  7. How many hours do you work?
  8. Do you work for someone, or do you work for yourself?
  9. Do you have good pay?
  10. Can you work from home?

Thank you if you answer
