One hundred Katy High School juniors and seniors were chosen at random and asked if they had jobs and how it affected their grade point average. Senior Hannah Krishnia said, Employers don't realize that I go to school from 7:40-2:40 then I have to work for them from 4 p.m. 'til 11 p.m. I think that they should take into con- sideration that I do have homework and tests to study Forty-nine students asked said that they had jobs, and twenty-nine of those students did in fact say that their job did affect their GPA in a negative way. Senior Danny Wiggins ad- ded, I hate my job because it in- terferes with my social life and it doesn't pay much. I have a really good job at Foleys. I'm an extra on call and that means I call in, and pick my own hours. It helps a lot picking my own hours, because I have time for homework and for my social life, commented Laura Ramm, senior. I have an easy job, however, I have to learn to put up with a lot of abuse from know-it-all managers, said junior Leon Muller. But if you don't learn to take it you you won't make it now or in the future, he added. By Robb Scott Is it possible to work and study? 9 ,' 14 we -at if .2 Q 'A L. rf' Q u ff ff 1. f i -'.
