You also may want to consider the fact that this is a new job, which means stress, which can exhaust you. Once you get the routine down, maybe it won't seem so overwhelming.

I feel for you with the school and full time job thing - I've been there. Its hard, I won't lie to you, but it is possible if you can find the right combo of work, school, and home life. But it takes perseverance, so you have to keep trying. I found I did better with jobs that didn't have as much interaction with people (esp the general public). Something like date entry, filing or working in the storeroom at a retail place. Some people hate that though and would rather interact with people all day. It just depends on you.

Have you checked out jobs on campus? They tend to understand the whole student thing better than most. Plus you can go right from work to class, or class to work - no travel time. UPS sounds good too, I've heard they pay well. I hope you get to try that.

Another thing to consider is to take a class or a short term training program that will help you to develop a skill that will get you a half way decent job through school. It doesn't have to be your life's ambition, but a little training may give you an opportunity for a better paying, more tolerable job.

Let us know how it goes. You're just starting out, so don't give up!
