Did anyone ever make you feel inferior due to having a GED, rather than a diploma?
It doesn’t happen here in the Southwest so much, but back East some jobs and colleges made people actually cry over it. Comments?

I get a hard time from people all the time for having a GED. I got mine at 17 and went straight to work. After a few years I had my own construction company. Between then and now I even decided to go to college and so far have one year under my belt. If you have one and your being harassed just ignore it and move on.

I have a sister in law with her GED. She couldn’t “handle” all of the high school drama, so she dropped out and got her GED. I’ve always thought badly of her for it, just because she 1) didn’t finish what she started and 2) opted out for the GED instead of getting the high school diploma through a community college. It doesn’t take that much longer, and I know it looks better on an application. Keep in mind that she’s worked the same job for 7 years now and only makes 9.50 per hour.
