        @awlelwa the best part is it that it's an associates of /arts/ ffs. I think I would have literally been better off bribing employers with that money. And it's not even finished uuuugh I hate thinking about it

            @awlelwa technically I didn't though since I don't have enough credits for the degree, I'd need another semester and a half

                @awlelwa and my high school degree is from an online school where I barely passed. Honestly I'm amazed I'm even employed

                  @rarity As long as you graduated high school it doesn't seem to matter much how.

                    @awlelwa I suppose that's true

                      @rarity Now I wonder if a GED vs a diploma actually makes a difference.

                        @awlelwa there is a stereotype against GED recipients, but I don't know how much that plays into employment discrimination.

                            @awlelwa experience goes a long way, it really does I think.

                                @awlelwa tbh I have absolutely no clue how I am where I am.

                                    @awlelwa I guess. I mean everyone in this job is so goddamn jaded so I can see why a fresh face would be good

                          @rarity @awlelwa I'm not positive, but around here GED's seem like pretty acceptable alternatives.
