Would you try to juggle school and work? Or would you quit one of them to benifit the other?
I currently work about 60 hours a week and am getting ready to start going to school on-line. I am having a hard time figuring out when I am supposed to be doing all of this plus the house work and all.
I really can't afford to quit my job, but if it gets to be too much what would you do?

If you need the money , you can't quit your job. I thought the good thing about taking classes on-line is that you can do it in your free time.I like my job , so I would keep it even if I were to go to school.

That is the one good thing about doing the classes on0line, but the thing is trying to find time to do whil working 70 hours a week, and all the other stuff I do. I am going to give it a whirl, and see how things go.

Well i have a very busy life im a "full time student" though but i have a lot of things to do after school. I have swimming lessons twice a week, gymastics twice a week, piano lessons once a week, institute once a week, i am the secretary of my branch (about 3 hours a week of things i have to do) tai-kown-do and 2 choirs. So i try to juggle all of these things next to my school works. So my advice is try to juggle as much as you can handle and see how it goes.

But how do you get to the point where you find out it is too much without loosing something for it?
I don't want to lose anything I would rather give it up instead.

I actually did do both at the same time...I went to school in the afternoons for 4 hrs, worked from 6 til 2am AND was raising two kids by myself etc etc...its doable without a doubt, you just have to figure out what your groove is really which only you can figure out ya know....
