text: Generic_Name's family cannot afford for her to have her own personal laptop. Her schooling is now being conducted only online however, and she is having difficulties keeping up with her schooling. She relies on the public library for computer access, but it isn't always open when she needs it to be, and she cannot video chat with her professors there. Generic_Name's grades are plummeting but she feels like she has no control over the situation. She has decided to get a job in order to pay for her own laptop, but her job drastically cuts into her schooling. She needs the hours to acquire the laptop but her balance between work and school isn't working and she doesn't know what to do.
