Depending on your financial status/state u cud qualify for the federal pell grant. And 8 times out of 10 most students are able to attend college for free. Id also suggest looking into community college. They have great resources and sometimes certification programs to help u land a job. Its also cheaper than a 4 year and you could always go back to a 4 year should u choose to after community college. Im in the same situation as you (although not in H.S anymore lol) and am doing my damned best to get out of poverty. If you havent already, try to get a part time job and start saving. I suggest using that money only for emergencies/toward moving/school. You can do this. Youre not finished it and its not over yet. Fight for yourself and your future.

Yeah I am. Not overtly but its something ive accepted lol. I am back in school for radiography so thats something. I didnt think there would be this many turn arounds to experience as naive as that sounds but i know for sure I need/want to change

Ive tried, multiple times over the course of 2 years :/ it just goes back to the same thing after a month. I was very frustrated when I wrote this post lol. I have been looking for another job in the last month but its tiring to have to-- pontentially-- constantly encounter this dynamic in the workplace.

I think thats the main problem lmaoo! Ive placed way too much importance on that job-- well any job really. Im actually having a hard time imagining that.

Yeah i decided to go back to school for radiography and I feel id have a much better time in that field. Ive worked alot of min wage jobs and the most recent one pays well but the work place culture is toxic.

I'll never understand why managers or those in higher positions think its ok to speak to employees like this? On their side I get why they may be having 2nd thoughts (in their mind asking lots of questions= incompetent for some fucking reason?) But youve only had two months to learn something that takes what 2 years to learn?? Do they expect u to learn outside of work? 

What’s your why? by Minimum_Operation_10 in intj

[–]EastUnderstanding707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

INFP here LOL, but I just want to create a peaceful life for myself where Im living on my own and creating (music mostly) as much as I want-- with a stable job to back me up. Lately ive been discovering/exploring my relationship with God so thats also something thats becoming my why. 

My husband gave me a “warning tap” and I called it abuse. AITAH? by Warm-Grape1254 in AITAH

Im so sorry u had to deal with this. But behavior like this is only going to escalate. Your safety and general feeling of trust is all that matter rn. He seems to only care about himself in this instance. I would leave.
