High School Graduation

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

High School Graduation

Post by Jacob Isom »

How many of you are still trying to graduate from high school here? I have been here for over a year and still don't have my requirements fulfilled... :(

I have a meager Pops Top Notch Top Shoppe job and it doesn't pay very well... hehe.

Haha, are you speaking of the High School Equivalence? ;) For a long while there, I thought you were talking about real high school. Then I thought it was rather odd that someone of your age would still be in high school. The only "requirements" you need to purchase your HSE is $5000. I'm sure there are some generous individuals around here who'd be more than willing to assist you in that area. O:)

Haha, I thought the same thing as Trent. I was like "Umm, wow, I thought Jacob was smarter than that but he must be a dummy if he hasn't graduated high school yet in the 'real world'." But yeah, I don't have anything to donate extra really. :( But best of luck! \:D/

I just deposited the money into my savings account, so we'll see how that helps... :) Any more donations?

I graduated from real high school 2 years ago.;) hehe... I didn't make myself very clear. :)

Well, didn't you only have like 12 posts before your return? It seems you have been enjoying our company again! \:D/

Tis true... I hope they'll unblock this site at college, though I don't think they will be that gracious.

Most people don't have near enough for an HSE even when they have 1000 posts... you're doing pretty good. ;)

I thought you meant real school at first, too. Hope this helps a little. *Donates*

Sorry to confuse y'all... and it was very helpful! It's all going to the bank to gain interest! Thanks again.

I'm about 500 dollars away from graduation. I really am thankful for all the help you guys gave!

Patience and perseverance, my dear Jacob. ;) But I'm sure that you've done a great job at Pop's Top Notch Shoppe! \:D/ Will you buy my hair before you quit? ;)

buy it? Or cut it...? Unless the shop is running some kind of underground hair trading on the side :-

All trimmed, Catspaw. Then I bought my High School Equivalence... Thanks y'all. Now, onto that Business Degree.... Does anyone care to help me out? ;)

I'm now employed as a Marys Story Shop Worker. Are there any jobs that pay higher than 100 to high school grads?

Somebody needs to listen to more AIO eps! ;) Apparently "Gifts for Madge and Guy" isn't an ep you've heard. :(

Glad you like it. Took you enough money to get it trimmed. :) Wow, this new job at Mary's Story Shop sure is a sight for sore eyes.

Actually, that isn't true. The Master Job List includes a few jobs that pay more than $100, but they may not be available over at the Jobs.

I stand corrected, Trent :anxious: There wasn't anything available when I got my job. They've probably all been taken. :(

Ah, yes the "Gift of the Magi" referenced ep... No, not yet. :(
