 Part-Time Work

Part 5

Additional Tips

Although working and going to school is challenging, it can be a rewarding experience if you use some foresight. These tips can help you handle the situation and make the most of your time:

• ·        Discuss your plans with your family. Balancing the demands of school and work is easier with their support.
• ·        Start slowly: don't commit to working a lot of hours immediately.
• ·        Avoid time conflicts by planning your class and work schedules as far ahead of time as possible.
• ·        Use your time efficiently. You can use 10 minutes waiting in a line of downtime and your boss has no objection. You can use slow periods to do schoolwork.
• ·        If you commute to your job on public transportation, bring your schoolwork with you so you can work along the way.
• ·        Be flexible and willing to make sacrifices. You may have to cut down on some other things you'd like to do because of your happy and healthy.
