My class would be having our 15th year reunion in 2006--if someone had the gumption to organize one. If we've had a reunion, neither my ex nor I was informed.Scalywag said:There have been several reunions, and I have had no desire to go because these two friends were in a different grade and wouldn't be there.
My mom said that when she went to her five-year reunion, the college grads wouldn't associate with those who hadn't gone to college. She decided not to go back for a while.Scalywag said:I remember one guy telling a good friend of mine "....well you wouldn't know that, you're not educated". After a few incidents like that I just felt I didn't need to see these poeple anymore.
My husband, at the job he just retired from, was making more money than a lot of college-educated folk in our area, but it has to do with the fact that he was a state employee with 27 years at his job, and we live in a high-poverty area where a lot of jobs just don't pay well. He won't allow people to try to make him feel inferior because he didn't go to college.Scalywag said:That's interesting.
I remember when I was in my late 20s, I used to get pissed off because I had friends without a college degree that were making more money than me. It doesn't mean much to me these days.
There's a place for me if I decide to go back to work. I could teach evening classes, but then I'd miss my girls' soccer games. I could teach day classes, but then I won't be able to volunteer at the kids' school.Scalywag said:Fuck 'em is right.
