The people of Mzansi debate the matter, feel the man might have deserved it

While there is no reason to be so salty to a friend, some believe that the man with the degree might have been a bit too confident when he got it and left a sour taste in the friend’s mouth.

Peeps took to the comment section to share their thoughts and it is evident that most are on the friend’s side, not the man who got turned down, shame.

Take a look at some of the comments:

“From my own experience, I’ve had a friend who used to ridicule me for working while they were studying. The same dude wants me to buy him weed and cigarettes every day but once he gets drunk he is talking about I’m gonna be richer than all of you here, I’m the only one with a degree here!!”
