I am freelancing right now, I do not want a full time job, due to my special needs child. On my second freelance job, they did a very thorough background check. They checked my financial credit, they checked to see if I have a criminal record and they checked all of my jobs and all of my degrees and diplomas. Everything was fine except I went to university 27 years ago and am 2 credits short of a full degree. I was young and ridiculous, and I should not have put it on my resume, but I did. This schooling has nothing to do with what I do now, but obviously this makes me a liar. So, this all came up after I started my freelance gig. They asked me while at work yesterday to produce proof of my education. Should I just walk away? Or should I get proof that I went and am short 2 credits and was dishonest? Obviously I am very ashamed of this situation. The job isn't super important to me, but I feel like I really disrespected them
