So I'm worried that I won't get a decent job due to my highschool grades.
The problem is that I haven't gotten good grades (don't get me wrong I tried), I'm just not good for school I guess. Anyone have an idea of what I could do?
Suck dick for money I guess?
Despite what you're repeatedly told by teachers and principals, grades really don't matter in the employment world.
If you have a diploma, and are qualified to do your job, employers really could care less.
I don't think employers really look into your grades, atleast they don't around here. I wouldn't worry to much about it an apply for everything, someone will accept you.
As long as you graduate, I guess you should be fine.
at list I hope I will
Grades don't defy a person.
Sometimes the jobs you apply for, don't just look for grades.
They also look for your personality.
They also look for work experience.
They also look for volunteer experience.
Don't worry you can always get a job without good grades. Heck college certificates are getting less and less valuable. Of course you could always take the military route. As long as you have a decently working brain and a decent body then you should find something to do there.
Ill just hire you.
Get connections. If you can make your way around using them then you can get a job easily without having to rely on grades.
Grades aren't the only thing employers look at.
how about a soccer player? you guys love that shit
grades are for college really. and college determines for you to get a better job with more paying money.
Like everyone said above, you don't need good grades, like me. Just try your best til you graduate to get your diploma.
Also remember, you aren't alone. There are many others in your boat. Just try.

And degrees don't guarantee you a job.
In fact, less than half of college graduates find employment in their field within a year.
The rate is rather comparable to those with no college education at all.
