Hi, my name is Steve, I am a full time student at Springfield Technical Community College. I am 65 yrs old and I am enjoying the education,however I work for a company that is almost an hr away, It is also physically challenging and I have had some setbacks in maintaining the job, so I have incurred some points against me towards my termination. I don't mind the job it pays better than my last job a big retailer that didn't pay. I am hoping to graduate in 1/2020 and my major is Laser optics a very marketable career choice,(although I still worry a little about my chances. I don't want to lose my present job only because I don't like being fired but I need to find something closer. So I'm just babbling and I'm sure it will all work out but I may just have to quit if they don't give me a "hearing"
It's definitely hard to go to school Stephen Lowry while also working full time. Perhaps you could consider sitting down with your boss and discussing things one on one. Also, I am not sure if you rent or own but you could move closer to school so that the stress of the commute is a bit less cumbersome. Thinking of you, and WAY to go for going after what you want!
