“I actually like that approach because I’ve had the days where I go to class for an hour, and then I have two hours off. Well, I really don’t want to drive home just to drive all the way back. Yes, it might suck to be in class for four hours straight, but I could go into a job and say, “I go Monday through Friday from eight to noon but I can come in at one thirty or two o’clock and work with you guys.” I think employers would appreciate that more because I’ve actually missed out on a couple of jobs because of my school schedule.”Guided Pathways to Success
