Slightly different scenario, but this is also about someone who didn't go to college. I know this guy who is brilliant. One of the smartest, wisest and best people you'd ever know. Chose not to go to college. Know why? Didn't want it to 'slow him down.' Hahaha. So true. Guy wanted to educate himself and he did. Worked great for him. He could run circles around those aholes. Not going to college has worked for a lot of successful people. Not everybody needs a gender studies degree to feel good about themselves. Thanks to your friend for serving on the job.
