Unfortunately it'd take 1.5 years to finish, or I would ask such a thing. I dropped out because I went to full high school but didn't get credit for two years of it and was not going to make it up. I was a bit reckless.

Finishing high school at 21 certainly sounds strange. It sounds like you should take the job.. in part because you've already gone two years down this road of not finishing schooling.

If you can find a way to combine the job with a path towards college, seems like it'd be ideal.

Clarifying that I didn't get credit because it wasn't adaptable with public school because it had a unschooling approach.
