A Twitter user has taken to the platform to narrate how a woman turned down a job offer because her husband doesn’t want her to have a higher academic degree than him.
According to the Twitter user identified as Dr Brown, she offered the woman a job but included in her offer letter that she must get an MBA while working with her company.
However, the said woman later got back to the employer, rejecting the offer because her husband said it would be bad for their marriage if she gets her MBA before him.
Narrating her encounter with the woman, Dr brown tweeted,
“There was a lady who I wanted to come and work with us. But she didn’t have an MBA. So included it in her offer letter.
She turned the offer down because her husband said that it would be bad for their marriage if she got a masters before him.
Maybe this has something to do with the reason why people insist on calling my hubby Dr Brown even though he isn’t a Dr. I am Dr Brown. And that’s perfectly ok. I also got my masters before him. He really doesn’t give a hoot about such things. Supports me through everything”.
