    Finish out the year, he'll still have to pay tuition fees till the end of the year and even for a completed year (granted he passes) then he can get a certificate to say he's done it.

    Thanks Gemmzie...Have just had a quick chat with SLC, and with him...thinks he's going to complete the year & then jump into the real world, mainly because SLC will want their loan payment back if he drops out before the summer.

    I went to check out MFI tonight on the way home (who I had telephone interview with today and have second interview with Fri) and basically realised on the way home it's simply not do-able. I can't go back to weekends-I never saw DD and childcare was a nightmare. I simply have to find a 9-5 , mon-fri job and with my background in retail it's very difficult as no-one wants a middle aged Mom for anything these days...

    Don't give up hope Bunny, otherwise the battle is lost before it is even fought. Keep looking and keep applying, and think of all those middle-aged Moms you're not competing against because they've already removed themselves from the running.

    DH suggested I get a job in a warehouse...
    Somehow I fear I am over qualified.

    Not if you explain that this job is the one for you because it dovetails so neatly into you family commitments. Bullshiit and flatter Bunny... ;)
