Reply to comment by aKnightWh0SaysNi in El Paso High School students may have to retake SATs after tests fly out of UPS truck by Abortionofrights

The great thing about life is that if you don't wanna do something, in general you don't have to do it. Regardless of what anybody else may think. And you don't even have to explain yourself to others or give a shit what snarky comments they reply with.

Doesn't change anything about it not being a smart move though.

I'll stand by your side on this one, random internet man.

I value my free time so much I'll intentionally take a lower paying job if it means dealing with less nonsense.

Life is short and I'm not wasting it at an office.

Yeah but taking a few tests can lead to much more free time down the road. I took 3 tests that were a combined 8 hours to become a teacher and now I don’t work in the summer. I have a friend with a bunch of advanced degrees that required tests to get and they’re on pace to retire around 50.

I took no tests and have spent the last 5 years working three days a week, 12 days a month, on weeks I clock out with more than 23 hours I think "damn I worked a lot this week"

That wasn't a smart move though. It's an SAT. It ain't that bad. A few hours of studying and 6 hours taken out of a single day off could improve your chances of getting into a decent school and getting scholarships.
