    I wouldn’t say ‘most jobs’, but a lot of jobs don’t actually care about diplomas.

    • The customer service jobs I’ve had typically only had a short ‘can you do basic math?’ type quiz beforehand just to see if I could operate a cash register.

    • My warehouse jobs just had simple safety training and subsequent quizzes.

    • Restaurant work only requires a food-handler’s card.

    In my experience, entry-level jobs care more about you having a reliable form of transportation + flexible schedule than if you passed high school.
