Bulgarian woman: bogus qualifications, cheats, bogus lecturers and work colleagues

Bulgarian woman, in sales office:

I worked hard for my Masters. I studied night and day under a British university and now, here in London, everyone seems to have one. But they have no knowledge. How can that be?

Me: Cheating. Their Masters are bogus.

Bulgarian: How? How can that be?

Me: They got them from bogus colleges. Private colleges. They'd get other people to write them or take the words off the internet, you know, copy and paste.

Bulgarian: I feel ridiculous. All my hard work for nothing.

Me: Not for nothing. At least you know you got your qualifications honestly.

Bulgarian: But I've got nowhere and some of them have good jobs.

Me: Well, hopefully it will catch up with them. In time, hopefully it will.

Bulgarian: Its all so sad. Rubbish about cheats never prospering.



What could I say to her as these cheats are everywhere brandishing their dubious qualifications.  I've met enough in colleges where I've worked. Ignorant, arrogant types with degrees.
