It will matter if you want to do a residency or get another degree, but if you're talking about job hunting, no it won't.
Oh I don't like where this is going at all. Whoever this guy is I am sure he goes to a former top 10 school that is nationally recognized as being a great school that is not a diploma mill at all.
I just discovered I hired a sub 3.0 GPA intern for my new company. His work is satisfactory, but maybe I should fire him? What do you guys think?
Overall his work is satisfactory, and his attitude is great, I would say.
I would agree with this. In fact, I think maybe people missed my sarcasm. I'd never consider firing him b/c of his grades. I don't give a crap about that. I hired him because I knew him and felt he would fit well with my company. I had worked with him in another context and liked his work. So grades are not always important, but networking and connections are.
Totally true based on my experience
I'm fairly new here, so it's a bit harder for me to read between the lines and to put things in context of each author. But rest assured, I'm slowly learning who are the resident jokesters, duelists, diplomats, fanboys, etc...

Dare I ask where I fall in this list?
Identifying the #1 fanboy is more difficult than (and perhaps not quite as subtle as) you think!
Especially when there are quite a few of them around from my observation...
I'm still a newb, so don't hold that against me... but from all your posts that I've read, I'd say you're either an archivist or a fanboy >_>;
Don't kill me....
Oh yeah...I forgot I am helpful every so often.
Archivist... One who gathers information. I can kind of see it. Between the sarcasm and fanboyisms, you are often helpful to others, right? Or maybe he meant anarchist.
Did you forget to go to work today?
Hahahaha. I hadn't think of that. Another awesome title to add to my title bucket for a special individual.
I thought of archivist for owlegrad because of what A4MD said. You're a wealth of info and are often spotted helping newbies navigate through the jungle of pharmacy school, amongst others. Many of your posts also consist of links guiding knowledge-seekers to much older, archived, posts.
It almost feels like you have a way of reading thread IDs like Deweys... or something. That's right, I've almost got you figured out!
... uncontrollable sarcasm machine / forum trickster.
Btw: Dewey is street slang for the Dewey Decimal System.
