Well i'm suppose to be starting this school which goes from 10 to 5 or 6 to 10 pm at night.My dad is not happy with it he figures i wasted enough time since i'm 21 find a job and forget the school.I wish there was a way i could work part time but if school is gonna take up have the day there really isn't a job that's gonna hire me for the 3 or so hours i have free.I tried ups working at 3 am which would have been good but they never called back.Anyway do i forget the school cause i understand where my dad is coming from since he can use help money wise but i'm already 21 soon to be 22 and would hate to think i have done nothing with my life

You can work, and go to school... it isn't easy but yes it can be done.

Thought about delivering the news paper in the morning for a few hours? Not a lot of money but some... OR check into your school.. they may need some help for a few hours here and there that would be perfect for a student.

Going to school while working is not impossible... don't give up your education it is vital!

can't u get a job either after 5 pm or in the am and do the 6-10 school? or maybe i misunderstood do you have to go to both sessions or choose one or the other?

either way find a way to do both don't give up school even if you do school part time and it takes you that much longer to finish your young you plenty of time to work and finish school PT.

Go part time if you have to. The longer you put off school the less likely it is that you will (be able to) return. Get a job if you have to, go to school when you can, and when you are done you will have a hopefully fufilling career that YOU chose.
