Why should I continue my education when I can have the job I want now?

Jobs are transitory in today's global economy.  A degree is a proven way to increase your earnings and your viability for interesting jobs in the future.\n\nOf course, if you are wandering around with an "all but dissertation" Ph.D in English, and you find a job doing what you love, it's ok to dump the ivory tower.

go for it.  If you want to have a future in the industry start now.

It is better to stay with the current job and look for a new one because there is no guarantee that you will get a job which is better than the old one once you leave your old job. Moreover who knows, the new boss may be more dumber.

Just remember that you are setting good habits for your future....you do want a good education so you can make tons of money don't you?

Look for something you own that you can sell.  After you are beyond your crunch, find a job where you can practice the skills you are studying.  This will ensure you a good paying job after you complete your studies.

to continue would improve your career and would make you more successful, however many companies won't be able to pay what you're worth because of your education and if you are doing it for the money you should give it a try, when it comes to math, you won't go wrong if you continue, good luck!

How many people do you know that even have that option? If I were you I would definitely persue my masters. If you can handle having a job at the same time then go for it. But if you can't then quit..I dont think you would be burning bridges if you explain the scenario.

Finish formal education, work part time and then if you want to work full time later do it.

WORK for the meantime atleast to have the money to support your studies...if u really like to achieve your dreams then you will do anything to reach it.

Start applying for the job you having been looking for that requires the backelors degree. You may be surprised to see the increase in pay and/or benefits which may help motivate you.  Good for you by the way for sticking it out this long with all the obstacles in your way.

getting a higher education, by knowing as much more as you do now will gain you that money where you can spread your knowledge and gain more people to listen to what you say ;)

your never too old to want to try and better your life, just keep in mind that if you've been outta the education game for a while, you'll have to readjust to a scheduled life around school.

You need to weigh what you have to do now against the result in the end.  Can you afford it?  Some people spend much more than that for college.  If that is what you want to do with your life, and you can afford it, go for it.  There is nothing like going to work and enjoying what you do, regardless of the pay.

I would go for the tests. A degree is more important than your present job, as it will open up more opportunities.

Um, yeah.  That's like the point of getting an education, isn't it?  So you can function in some kind of career.  Dude, get a job!

Why in the world did you apply for the job if you were still in school and planning to continue?  I'm guessing you 1.) didn't think you'd get the job or 2.) didn't want to finish college in the first place.\n\nSo, what's the deal?  Do you need the money for college?  Are you hoping to get a degree in something to better your life?  Are you in a position where you can take night classes?   What are your goals?  How can you best reach your goals?\n\nYou seem like a smart enough sort of kid.  You seem to write fairly well -- which is a lot to say on this site.  I don't know what you were thinking when you went for the job.  \n\nI'd say to go for the education.  It only gets harder down the road.  Talk with the people who hired you and tell them you've decided to finish your education.  Maybe they'll have a place for you in management when you finish school.

Try taking a part-time or weekend college course in something else of your choice. When you qualify in that then start applying for jobs. When you are offered one then take it and quit your current job?
