My Last Semester in Environmental and Wildlife Management.

Hi! Yesterday I started my last semester of CEGEP, I can already smell the finish line! But before I finish, I have to pass my program exam and to do 300 hours of internship. This exam covers all of the different subjects seen during my three years of program. So now, I have to start studying for this big exam, and I will need all of my time to study for it. But my boss just asks me to do more hours, and I just registered for a marathon. I will have to choose between my tasks and my hobbies.

Choice 1 : Tell my boss that I can't have more hours.

Choice 2 : Put aside the marathon.

Choice 3 : Accept more hours at work and continue to train for my marathon.

Choice 4 : Decrease my hours at work and postpone my marathon for the next year.

Tell my Boss that I Can't Have More Hours.

I decide to ask my boss for fewer hours, and she got receptive and decrease my hours, it allows me more time to focus on my final exam.
