Guess I can help you a bit here...

1. How long have you been a game designer(That's my chosen occupation but if you have anything to do with graphic design then thats fine)
I've been in design for about 3 years (not including university years)

2.At what age did you start?
Started after I left school... which would be 18 but I've always been drawing in class while the teacher's teaching... but failed art year after year.

3.Why did you chose to be a game designer( or whatever)
Because at that time... when my parents asked me what i wanted to do... Criminal Law and Criminal Psychology wasn't an option that would pass my parents. So they thought that computers and doodling would go hand in hand. I still can't draw that well... but i'm a heavy supporter of digital drawing tools. I can draw a perfect circle with digital tools :D

4.Where do you work?
I currently work in a film distribution and cinema operations company called Golden Screens Cinemas which is the largest in Malaysia. We buy rights to lousy movies like Boogieman and The Grudge and Alexander.

5. What hours do you work?
I work from 8:30am to 8:00 0r 8:30pm on most days... then bring work home to do... so those hours aren't clocked. Company doesn't pay OT nor cares if you work to death for them.

6. Is the job very stress worthy (lots of headaches, grey hairs, ect)
Yes to headaches. Yes to grey hairs (mine turn white immediately). It really depends. Most of the time my stress isn't due to the work itself. It's due to certain people in the department who resent and despise me for being young and ambitious and quiet.

7.Do you ever regret choosing to work in (insert occupation).
Yes. For some reasons, I do regret being in the field i am because here in my country, there's no real room for creativity as most clients do not accept a lot of things. Plus... when no one appreciates the work done... that's a dampener to motivation.

8. What wout you do if (insert occupation) wasn't an option.
I'd probably be in Law or Psychology maybe even Medicine.

9. Do you enjoy your work?
Used to. Not at the moment. But I do enjoy doodling on my own free time.

10. Do you believe that you are contributing to society with your work?
Well... people know about movies my company distribute here in malaysia because the publicity stuff are done by me. Also I do adverts for Fox and UIP movies like Kingdom of Heaven and Star Wars Episode 3.
