Even if they check your GPA, that isn't the same as checking all of your grades. A single failure really should not do all that much damage to your GPA. (I bet my GPA is worse ;)

  I'm not a software developer and no job I've ever had has checked my grades or transcript. And they shouldn't -- they're irrelevant

    Checking if you even went to the school you claim to have gone to might be prudent, but nobody has ever even asked me to prove that.
