Do not refuse a job opportunity.
If you or your family are having financial problems, then you must earn first. It becomes a matter of survival.
There are a few relevant sayings which must always be kept in mind. Nobody can deny them, and everybody accepts it. The quotes are :
Most of the success stories are 'rags to riches' stories. One guy joined a bank after 12th as a clerk and later he became the general manager. Today, you may be a courier boy but later you might have your own courier company if you play your cards right. A group of working constables formed a security agency after gaining experience and quit their jobs. Nobody can gain without suffering pain. 6 out of every 10 waiters successfully run their own hotels later. Ask any shop owner in your neighborhood his past. You will come to know that either the present owner of the shop or his previous generation was a grass root worker a few years ago.
By all means go for the job. The more time you spend here, the more experience you gain. Your seniority, perks, etc. also increase. It is true that you won't get a high starting salary in a job after 12. Please note that you are a single 18 yo, your expenses are also less. Here you earn Rs 50 a day, while your friends at school spend Rs 500 a day. Later they all realize that it was useless.
Nowadays, your growth prospects in the job are not considered on the basis of your certificates. If you develop your skills, aptitude and crafts suitably, you become indispensable for the company.
Work is an education in itself. Whatever work you'll be doing, all those topics in english, hindi, physics, chemistry, biology, maths, history, geography, commerce, economics, philosophy, engineering, medical or law can be found in the work you do. It is up to you to interpret.
First earn and then learn. Education is to learn how to learn.
Today’s text books carry stories and achievements of people who themselves did not attend any school or were school drop-outs.
The guardians of our education system did not follow this, and the result is chaos all around.
The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) continues to be jolted with one embarrassment after another. One of its former chiefs is already in prison for his corrupt acts. Peons of the exam board sell thousands of candidates’ answer sheets to scrap dealers.
One candidate fought with great hardship a case in High Court to recheck her answer sheet. She had been declared failed but ended up in top 10. Throughout the case, the Board showed arrogance.
Recently, the Patna High court while noting the ''negligible behavior'' of the BSEB officials, imposed a fine of Rs 1 lakh on it for deliberately flunking Saurabh Kumar, a student of Class 12, in one subject in 2017. The board had to confess of a ''clerical error'' before the High Court during a hearing.
Saurabh got 32 marks in the Alternative English, but after he requested the board for a scrutiny of his answer sheet, he got 2 marks. Then he approached the Patna High Court for relief.
In June 2018, the Central Board of Secondary Education, CBSE, was found responsible for erroneous revaluation and gross carelessness. It miscalculated up to 55 marks in class 10 and 12 board papers. It toyed with the careers of the students causing great hard ships to them. Earlier in 2017 the CBSE had abolished the revaluation process, but had to reintroduce only because of Delhi High Court’s ruling.
There are a number of other similar victims. But, everyone can not fight like Saurabh.
Does such a CBSE or a BSEB deserve a candidate like you?
Their own houses are not in order. All such exam boards are fast losing their credibility.
If you still feel like studying please remember that there is no school or college left which does anything useful for the society. More than 90% of engineering pass-outs are unemployable. A number of colleges have already been shut down. Half the seats remain vacant as there are no takers. The so-called researchers get away with fake research papers. It has been proved beyond suspicion that the education system in our country is a farce. As such, thinking about study at a school or obtaining a degree is just a waste of time, resource and energy.
Well, you can do both, if you really want. And that too at your terms. If you really have a passion to study then you can do distance education while at the job. You can enroll in a non-attending (dummy) school just for the sake of attendance.
Nowadays, as we all know it is very difficult to get a job. When a person gets a job, the first thing he does is he thanks his stars. He eventually got a break. Now, he can fulfill all his dreams.

There are a few relevant sayings which must always be kept in mind. Nobody can deny them, and everybody accepts it. The quotes are :
- No job is a mean job,
- Beggars are no choosers,
- A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush,
- One’s identity is one’s personality, not one’s degrees or the post one holds,
- Opportunity knocks at your door only once.
- Lady Luck may not smile on you every time
