Today, someone at work was bragging that their son was high school valedictorian and offered a full college scholarship. 7 years ago, I was also valedictorian and got that same scholarship. All I said was, "Congratulations. Did you want fries with that?" and continued taking their order. FML

It has to be one of those four, huh? Because you know of four situations so mine has to be one of those four? I'm OP. I took the scholarship, got a B.A. in Economics with a minor in Computer Science (not quite Basket-Weaving or Art History, sorry), did analysis for a company that recently went under, started working for a start-up until I ran out of money, then took the best job I could find, which happens to involve selling french fries. By the way, he DID want french fries. And he got them.

If you went to high school in DC, you got to be valedictorian because you're the only one who didn't get pregnant, shot and killed or thrown in jail. So, DID he want fries with that?

Our school Valedictorian is now a stripper. No joke, her stage name is snow white because she was really pale.

Proof that good grades and/or a college degree do not necessarily guarantee you a good job. Take a few people I know as an example. Person A - is salaried, but when you divide it up makes about $27 an hour. Finished middle school, but never even entered high school. Person B - is paid hourly at $10.50 an hour. Graduated high school, went to college but did not finish. Person C - has a college degree. Unemployed. Person A is my ex-boyfriend's father, Person B is my ex-boyfriend. My ex's dad is his supervisor. Person C is a friend of mine who I went to college with.

I would have said the same thing, and I don't even work in a fast food place. It's what I always say when people feel like telling me their life story. I hate when people feel the need to brag to random strangers.
