  • I grew up in Washington State. At first this sounded like WANIC, a program where high schoolers can learn trade jobs instead of taking 1/2 periods of class. I didn’t see it referenced at all in the article.

    It is a cool program though. You can do things like Fire Fighters Academy, learn construction skills (although not like this trenching stuff AFAIK). I took classes at DigiPen, a college for video games, and ended up going there after high school.

    If you have kids in school in WA, consider WANIC as it is paid by the state.

    I work at Microsoft and it’s well known that you get paid way more at Facebook and Amazon. We like to call it a “sin tax”. Their employee retention is basically how long you need to stay to get your whole signing bonus.

    Microsoft is far from perfect but I thoroughly enjoy working there in gaming.
