I am about to start community college classes next week. 4 classes 12 units... And i just got offered a fulltime job at a gas station from 12pm to 8am 5 days a week at 10$ a hr. I really need some honest help in deciding if this is a realistic plan. I want to do well in school but 400$ a week doesnt sound bad either.

go to college because nobody want to work in gas station forever

I don't think you should do it.  There probably won't be enough time for all your college work.

Go to college. If you can manage that, AND go to work, then take the job.

And take a little risk in life, you know?

its almost impossible, man, unless you have a really strong drive to earn the money

you'll be too tired after your job to study often

if you think you can manage in college while still working the job then do it, if not, dont

you'd need sleep to do well, wouldn't you? It seems like that job is a little late for my tastes.

do it

Do you want to work at a gas station for the rest of your life? If not, go to college.
