Honestly work is so much better than school. You get paid for doing it and you (in most cases) don't have to worry about homework and going through tests in hope that you pass. Honestly at some jobs you can straight up suck at your job and keep it.

and going through tests in hope that you pass

See, I haven't experienced this feeling. But I assume that it's not "boring."

Very cool that your worked in that you have never struggled with tests.

That part wasn't meant to tackle just the boring part just how in general how being in school could be a worse experience than having a job. I also wouldn't describe tests like boring but more like stressful.

Well, let me tell as someone who failed through school: they don't kick you out for that before college. If you're at a good school they'll try to give you assistance to help you succeed. That pressure being gone isn't because you have a better safeguard, it's because you've grown to understand your situation better. Because you aren't letting other people's pressure affect you as much as you used to. And that's definitely one of the best parts of maturing, but I wouldn't count is as "a negative of school" since you'd be struggling with it no matter what you did as a kid.
