 This is Jaylen. I'm on Church Street and I'm going to be interviewing students, high school, college, whatever it is about their school life and how they keep up with work if they work and yeah. I'm a senior graduating in a couple weeks. I was a pharmacy technician at the Walgreens in the New North End and I stopped working though for the last few weeks of college. When you were working how did you like keep up with like schoolwork and also your work at the pharmacy? Yeah, last semester I was able to do like 15 hours a week but then this semester I had harder courses. I was in chemistry so I did 10 hours a week and yeah since I only had two shifts a week it wasn't that bad. I was also only taking 12 credits this semester so yeah. Yeah so I work at an Asian cuisine restaurant and I work two nights a week and those nights can be difficult if I have homework for the class the next morning but I really try to prioritize my time and just make sure that I'm getting stuff done before work. I try not to leave stuff till after work because I get back pretty late sometimes. It can be a hard balance but I feel like I've kind of learned how to prioritize my time. I've been working through high school so it's just been something that I've kind of had to learn like there are definitely a lot of times but yeah it's just been something that's kind of a skill that I've built over time in order to like figure out how to best manage homework and time and stuff. I recently quit my job but I used to work at dirt cheek which is a thrift store just right on Main Street. I actually used to end school at 315 and start at 330 so I would like sprint down Church Street to my job. It was honestly I worked three nights or three days. It was not as difficult as I thought it would be just because I would kind of focus on school in school and then focus on work at work and then I just kind of wouldn't do homework when I got home and just hope it all worked out so I don't know I'm not very good at time management I'm not the best person to ask about this. I work at Pingala cafe in Winooski and so right now I'm only working weekends so I have to get all my schoolwork done during the week which can be pretty rough to manage because I have a fairly full schedule right now so my biggest concern is just like loss of free time because I do work 16 hours so I work nine hour shifts both days during the weekend but yeah it's just like a skill I've developed over time to just learn how to do schoolwork during the week and like go to bed usually pretty late so and then wake up early and just do it every day so just takes time. Yeah so I try and prioritize like my social life as well as my academic life so I feel like making sure that I have all my tests done and all my homework done before I go out and socialize. Yeah on the same like with because I had like a job at school so what I would do is I would make sure I have my schoolwork done before I like I would actually put my schoolwork before my job so like I would ask for like more flexibility at work with my hours so that I could get my schoolwork done and then usually like nighttime was when I would hang out with my friends because that's when I felt like I got all my work done so yeah. My Google calendars is a very useful tool in my life to keep track of everything and to make sure that I show up when I need to. Yeah thank you. So I feel like the biggest thing for me is taking breaks periodically and not like get it like when I get to work up taking breaks and like planning out not like my days like hourly hourly but like what I generally want to get done this day like what's most important in like what can I push off and then I don't know I'm like well practice now I'm graduating soon so. So it's worked out for you. It's worked out for me I would say yeah I use Notion and I'm an iPad kid so yeah having things planned out and just like taking breaks try when you feel overwhelmed like recognizing that and like just taking a moment for yourself. Yeah I kind of just after work I like to go home and cook and pretty much that's it I don't really go out much hang out with my roommates. Well I'm a bartender so it's a funny industry I just in the past two days worked 23 hours for Waking Windows and Winooski. Basically I just make sure all my friends come visit me and to keep myself hydrated at all times pick up lots of food I just picked up four bagels for the next two days and then basically just make sure that on my days off I have a schedule so that I make sure I can see my friends or family and I do a lot of phone calls and facetimes. Thank you so much.
