Yesterday I got a job interview, my second this month, the place is nice, the job is related to what
I'm studying right now (graphic design), and this time the interview went well BUT...

but the only thing that could stop me from getting it is that I'm studying in the
evenings. The owner of the place interviewed me, and said that...

And I need the cash, to pay my career...

If I got it, I'd be out of it at 6:30, BUT university starts at about 3 or 4 pm

The thing is, what I'm studying is what I've always wanted to do Sad
And a teacher that I admire a lot, and she knows most of my life, said to me not so
long ago that I should finish my career...

any ideas?

thanks

I'd try to find a different job, and finish the education bit. There will be other jobs, and with a full degree/qualification you'll probably be in a better position to go for vacancies in your chosen career.

Although, if you really want the job, then go for it. Ultimately it comes down to which decision you think you'd prefer to have made, when looking back on it a few years down the line.

I'd focus on education. It will open a lot of doors for you

Thanks for the words people!

Yes, to study this I've had to pass through a lot of stuff, I don't think that
it's wise to drop it all just for a job. Thanks, I'll try to see if I can get a
part time job Smile
