College Students/Graduates / Past and Present

I graduated high school 25 years ago this spring. At the time I didn't have a clue what I wanted to do so I worked at a few jobs before randomly being promoted to the produce manager at the grocery store I was at after the grocery manager was arrested for embezzlement and my manager moved over to grocery.

By the time I was 20 I had decided that I at least had wanted to get some sort of education so I went to university to do a year of general studies. By the end of that year I spent more time at the bar than studying so they kicked me out because of a 2.0 GPA.

A year went by and I decided I wanted to do programming so I started part time for the first semester before going full time. Through my forth semester my then gf got pregnant so I dropped out to start working again.

And that was the last time I went to school. 18 years later I work for a fortune 500 on their cybersecurity team making six figures doing mostly nothing all day. My secret? Every time a job got stale I got a new job but instead of going for something lateral I always jumped roles and responsibilities by a few rungs. Have I ever been qualified for the work thst I do? Absolutely not. Am I resourceful and quick on my feet? Just enough to get by.
Cybersecurity? Fortune 500?

I have a legitimate question. Did you go to college? I forget if you told me??
 
Just talking from my experience interviewing hundreds of candidate for various position . Still remembered few Dean's list candidates failed the interview due to lack of experience which is such a waste of time and resources to me .
