<p>I myself actually work and go to school, I found a online job that lets me make my own hours and all that other good stuff, how many of you all work and go to school? Does working impact your study habits?</p>
<p>I just got off of a seasonal job that had me working fifteen hours a week. It was rough, with being a debater and trying to mix it with tournaments, but I learned to do my homework late at night and on Fridays when I don’t have class. It worked, but I’m glad to be back to normal. I know a lot of people who can manage it quite well. Me… I’m not one of them.</p>
<p>I work ~40 hours a week (no, I would not recommend it. at all.). It forces me to actually get stuff done though. I don’t have a choice. No work = no school. </p>
<p>I DO think every one should work 8-12 hours a week. Employers do not want to hire someone with no work experience. Plus, you should be able to at least earn your own pocket money.</p>
<p>I work anywhere from 15-25 hours a week during the school year and 40 when I’m not in school and have been doing so for 17 months. Working produces good habits such as managing your money correctly and I like being able to interact with other people. It also helps significantly reduce my addition to the Internet and made me want to do volunteer work more.</p>
<p>Barring age-related concerns and serious health issues, there’s no reason not to try to find work and where I live (Midland, a modern-day boomtown), if neither situations applies, then you should already have a job,</p>
<p>I’m a HS senior, but my brother’s a College Sophomore. He had a work study job that was ~12 hours, and he didn’t have too much trouble with it. He had plenty of free time even with the job, and even on the job the boss let them do homework when they had free time (He was a lab assistant, handing out chemicals and such). I don’t think I’ll work freshman year if I don’t have to, but I’ll probably pick up a job sophomore or junior year.</p>
<p>I work 9 hours a week and intern another 7 hours a week. It’s good, it helps with time management. I suck at that still but it helps.</p>
<p>Romani, I commend you. I do not know how you do it.</p>
<p>Roman I applaud you, I was in your shoes a couple of years ago, at one point I was working 10 hrs a day either 5 or 6 days a week, 30 DAYS STRAIGHT!!, I actually had to stop going to school for a semester, that was by far the hardest thing I had to do. But if anyone needs a job let me know! Like I said I work online I make my own hours and we are ALWAYS hiring, who doesn’t want some extra money lol</p>
<p>Ah, I somehow suspected this would be an advertisement somewhere down the line ;)</p>
<p>Why do I feel like divadee is just an advertisement ■■■■■ :-P</p>
<p>I’m going up to school in January and am going to try to get an on campus or off campus job that gives me 15 hours per week. My goal is to save up atleast 2 grand before summer.
It does seem like there are alot of off campus jobs posted on the student employment site, I just hope it won’t be hard to handle my junior level classes while working.</p>
<p>Also it sounds like the OP is advertising one of those online survey sites where they “pay” u to take surveys, haha trust me stay away from those.</p>
<p>I actually work for two companies where I take surveys for money. Legit but not enough to earn any kind of real income. Enough to fill up my tank once or twice a month though so better than nothing.</p>
<p>Personally, I don’t think it is a good idea.</p>
<p>But it depends upon your school, program, and courseload. And, of course, your needs. If you need the money, then you have little choice. Otherwise, it is a good way to fail out of a course–and then the money you spent on school turns out to have been wasted anyhow. Any time you spend working means less time studying or resting. Having a job on top of that seems like a good way to burn out fast.</p>
