Should I quit?

I have a part time job working at a local cornershop literally just stacking shelves. It's gotten to the point where I'm really bored and can't really focus on revising properly. I'm thinking of quitting but I need to make some money to pay for personal bills (phone bill etc). What's the best thing to do?

If you "need to make some money to pay for personal bills", then the best thing to do would be secure a job elsewhere first, and then quit the boring shelf-stacking job.

If you fins the job boring, then look for another job. Get another job first before quitting this one.
If you need time off for exams, could you not use some of your holidays round exam time.

All jobs can be boring. This one is good practice for being bored in your real job.

True, and thanks for the advice!
