(Sorry for Wall 'O' Text. Read last 2 or 3 paragraphs if Tl;DR.) For the past decade, I have been a console gamer. Early next year is the time I want to change that. I want to go into PC gaming. So my need for a PC forced my hand. August was a hard month for me. At this point, the only way to get a good PC that I want (Which I will build.) is by having a job. I live with my Grandma so she can't afford what I'm looking to get by herself. Thankfully, my Grandma found a place I could work at; a carwash. I got a job there. For the past few months, since September, I've been working there. Recently, I got alot more hours. Usually, I had to call in before coming to work, just about everyday. That got me $10-$70 a week on average. This is my first week with so many hours. I've already built up over $100 worth of hours and won't get paid until Tuesday. Today, my grandma got concerned I'm working so many hours and worried about my grades in school. So, what she did, was call in and told my other boss. When I went in today, my main boss (The guy who owns the Carwash.) said he would have to let me go, so we exchanged farewells and I left to go home for what I thought would be for good. With that news, my grandma called my boss and apparently their was a mis-communication between my grandma and the other boss, who relayed the information to my main boss. My grandma said that I used to work only two-ish days a week and that my grades could probably start to fall with so many hours, but what he thought he heard was that she only wanted me working two days a week and that my GPA was falling. [u]Now because all of that was cleared up, I'm able to work again and get a new schedule. It's just that, I kind of hate working there. I mean my future PC means just about everything and is the sole reason that I work there, but everytime I have down time, or I'm not working, thinking about work just makes me sick to my stomach with anxiety. When I'm actually at work, I don't really care, but I have to scurry and struggle to find something to do when it's not busy, I have to ride my bike to and from work in cold Michigan weather, and I'm always embarrassing myself. It's much easier than it looks, but when I'm not doing it at that time, I get terrible anxiety just thinking about and it kills so much down time/rest time I could potentially be getting.[/u] With 4 days a week with work, if I miss one day or more anytime soon, I'll probably get fired. With that, there is no way I'd be able to get my PC, which will complete my life. My GPA is 4.25 at the moment. I am also in my schools Ivy League program. We meet up every Saturday. Sometimes, their are overnight things that extend over Saturday, Friday, and Sunday. I would really love to go to those, but can't because of work. So my question is, what should I do?
