Why I stopped editing for Nigel Ng (Uncle Roger)

Hey Mike, it's no worries at all! All the best for the future and I look forward to seeing your travel videos :)

I feel like a lot of the people watching were expecting drama and felt disappointed that it wasn’t. To put it frankly, it’s not the content I ever want to produce. I don’t get an inkling of satisfaction from spreading hate or negativity towards people, it’s just not me. To be h…show more

dodged a bullet, good for you

wouldn't it better if you just tell him you are losing interest of editing and you want to quit, instead of doubling your rates and except him just disappear? That just seems like poor communication on your part, unless there's something else going on that wasn't mentioned.

You left before Nigel had to apologize to the Chinese party for something someone else said lol. I had to unsuscribe from his channel. South park spoke too much about Chinese control in foreign media to stand by when it's done in front of me. Feels disgusting when someone holds a…show more

Talking about how Hong Kong changed your life Sneaky

Good job you got out, uncle Rogers doesn't have any back bone, gets one comment of criticism and he bends over backwards, burning bridges with collabs. Lol

I love the way Mike ended it with such positivity. No negative emotions or ill will towards Nigel, wants to pursue his own designs. Good luck on your future endeavors and passions 😀

Buu clicked on this video thinking there would be some BTS drama. Thank goodness, Mike and Nigel still friends and Uncle Roger just as nice as he seems. Good job following your dream! Wish you lots of success!

Yo man, i want to say: thanks for the share. Uncle Roger is only good when ppl like you put their hands on the editing job. It might be dull and boring but it the end it always pays because you have crafted the skills to look forward for something better. I appreciate people behi…show more

All jobs are routine after a while. It’s how you find joy in doing it or spice it up that you can keep marching on.

i knew you from podcast of Nigel NG, you have been done great job. I would say go start sharing your own perspective on here with your passion and skill. Go where you want and do what you like！ hope to see you more on this channel

Love your transparency, I definitely feel you on the freelance struggles/successes/decisions.

I don't even know he was uncle Roger editor

I'm just here for some Nigel trashing... but I got none, it sounds great to do what you want and what inspires you. We all have different things we aspire to

Do your own thing and create your own channel and work for yourself, that's my two cents, that way you are only responsible to yourself, lots of love.

Yessssss! Nigel turned out to be lame af.

I agree so much with you. I love to edit for fun, but it’s harder than you think to make something that you love into a job. I still dream of doing fun things for my job, but being put on a restrictive time limit and restricting the topic of each video doesn’t seem as fun as maki…show more

The proper title should have been why I stop editing. Felt like it was a click bite with the title bc the content talked very little of Uncle Roger. 👎🏼

TAIWAN IS TAIWAN 🇹🇼 ❤️

Proud of you Mike for telling the truth.

stay safe and have a good day everyone

It means are you Aunty Helen ? As you leave uncle roger????

Thanks for being so honest! I admire you for taking a step towards you passion when you could’ve stayed in the “safe zone”

Good for you, and best of luck in your career in the free world outside the reach of the communist Chinese government.

Nigel: but I just want to expand to my potential audience(China). That is always my dream of my career. :(

Lmao people hating on nigel but dont know that this video wasnt bout him

I have so much respect for you for leaving those two jobs and I’m really glad that you are continuing to do what you enjoy! Subscribed.

Yeah, do what you love but work on your communication. Don't just drop people just because you don't love what you're doing. Surprisingly most people will understand

I can totally relate to this situation. I have been editing videos for other people for years and eventually getting bored at it. It pays good but i don't feel passionate like i used to when I was younger. I wanted to pursue other things but i haven't really figured out what else…show more

Something tells me you made the right choice. Just follow your gut feeling.

And in 2 months he lost his motivation again for the 3rd time..... 😆 🤣 good luck 👍

He just dont want to hear that guy with fake accents to down Chinese people anymore. Good luck for you and we share the same family name. Best wishes to my people

Should’ve kept the job and kept expanding your portfolio. Biggest thing about YouTube is having your work seen.

You're a great on screen personality.

You know being transparent and reject the job is a better approach than suddenly doubling the rate. It just leaves hard feelings for your ex-clients. All the best 👍

sees the title NO YOU DIDNT 🤭🤭🤭🤭

I get it. As a creative it sucks working for someone else, no matter how well it pays, but this is one thing you shouldn't have given up. Coulda milked that shit by slowly upping your rates while developing your personal vision.

Uh, chile. I was holding my breath there for a sec for Uncle Rog. 😰 Glad there was no drama involved. All the best to you Mike!

You're young, you haven't worked it out yet. Making it a clickbait video is gonna lead to people being pissed off with you. Expect the downvotes.
