The FR-S Scion First “86” Program (the “Program”) is NOT a vehicle purchase. This Program will select individuals for the opportunity to purchase or lease one of the first 86 Scion FR-Ss in the continental United States.

BAHAHA.

So, basically, be one of the first 86 people to get a chance to buy a car that you've never seen in person, there are no reviews for, no interior options, load out selections, or even interior colors or MSRP.

Maybe tonight I'll finally figure out my scheduling.

I think I can actually (finally) enroll into EE, unless the chair decides to hang another requirement on entrance (I fully expect him to, the guy is a complete dickwad). That'll let me into another course on my list, then I might end up dropping CS in favor of bumping Calculus III into the late morning. I should end up right around 12 credits, which isn't good (it's fulltime, but barely), but I'll be able to fit my work schedule.

Yep. I work Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, starting at four. In order to make it to the job, I cannot take a class that ends after two on those days (30-40 minutes to get home, then get dressed for work and eat something, then drive to work).

For this upcoming semester, the only Calculus III course I could fit is at 3 PM. It's physically impossible to deal with Thursday, so I either need my Thursday work schedule to be changed (which my boss won't like), or miss the Thursday class every week (which my teacher probably won't like), or drop a course to fit everything (then I might not even make full time student status).

Yeah that kind of thing always sucks. Hope you find a solution.

I believe the best solution must be that I give up on spending money, and quit my retail job next fall in favor of getting a larger list of classes.

I can't say I can quit now, I don't have much money to do so.

Still facing at least another two years of this.

Better option would be... some sort of work from home job that I could do at my leisure, or a college-based job with the associated flexible hours.

How much are you making now? How many days a week are you working? What are you doing?

For the retail job: Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. 4PM to 8 or 9 (depending on the season). $9/hr, so my take home is about $100/week on average.
