Jobs are a great thing. They teach responsibility and make you appreciate worth.

BTW: I'm 20, not much older. Over 25k in debt (college), paying for the Cdale, insurance, etc. Working 20 hours a week during school and 40 a week over the summers. You can do it.

Get a job!

Ahh... I once had that problem as well. Then I convinced my current place of employment that I was far too valuable to only work such few hours. They now pay me directly instead of through work study, so I c an work the allowed student maximum for an on campus job of 20 hours a week.

I'm considering finding a 2nd job off campus for the weekends, maybe landscaping or something of the like.

If you want it bad enough, you can do it :head:
