Dana, why is someone asking for your GPA? That's ridiculous at your age.
Mal: He calls back, you keep them occupied. Wash: What do I do, shadow puppets?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Even worse, it's my husband. He's potentially interviewing with a lab, and if your GPA is under 3.5, they need VP approval to hire. (That's fucking absurd, right?)

Incredibly absurd. What was his in-major GPA? Could he give them that? (Mine was worse than my overall, but i think that's not usual)

This was his MBA, so I don't think he had any non-major classes.

Lord, I don't even remember my GPA. I graduated Cum Laude, but that's all I remember.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I have no idea what my GPA was. If it was 3.45 I would say that though, not round up, especially if it is something they could easily verify.

Because books.
So his years of work experience don't matter as much as one B on a test a long time ago?
This is why no one can have nice things.

Just so we can fully appreciate the ridiculousness, how many years ago did he complete his MBA?
