<prompt> Human: Hello reddit. I am 18 and In college and I messed up so badly. I received pell and tap grants and went to the first semester for free. But having new freedom and thinking no one could take the money from me led me to skip classes and get sloppy with my work. Now I owe back 1200 of this money and have no job and cant tell me parents because they will most likely kill me and I want to do this on my own since I am the one who got myself in this mess. I have about 600 saved up. How should I go about paying this? And can i requalify for financial aid? Should I drop out of college and work to pay it off then get back in?Assistant: Get a part time job. Work your ass off at work AND school, pay off debt, get your grades up.Learn from your mistake.Human: Yeah any advice on job hunting ? Ive been looking online but there is so many sites I feel like its just click bait  <response>: Dont look online. Look in person. Dress up. Print out some resumes. Go around to businesses around town and just ask them Are you hiring? If not, leave a resume and go elsewhere.
