It won't be easy, but it's possible. As another poster said, if it has been some significant period of time between your undergraduate 2.2, and today, and if you did *extremely* well on the entrance exams (GMAT, GRE, or what have you), and you have some solid, related work experience behind you, and you can craft a good essay, then yes, you do stand a chance at getting into some grad schools. It may also help if your grades in your last two years of school were much better than in your first two years, and/or if the grades in your major subject (or the subject you plan to go to grad school in) were above a 3.0.
They may not be the top programs, though. And in some fields, no grad school may admit you - depends on what you plant to study.
If it hasn't been that long since your undergrad years, or if your GMAT/GRE test scores are just so-so, then, in some fields, some lower level grad schools may still admit you. However, be sure that they are appropriately accredited. Gaining, say, an MBA from a non-AACSB accredited school can become a real issue in the future re: employability. So be aware of what sorts of accreditation are required or preferred in your field, and make sure that any school you go to has that type of accreditation.
And keep in mind that, for many employers and depending on the field, the prestige of your graduate program is important. Be aware of whether or not that is true in your field. If it is, and you can only get into the lowest tier grad programs, think carefully about whether or not it's worth your time, effort and cash to attend.

If this was a recent GPA, then if you do find a school which will take you, you probably don't want to go there. If it was more than a decade ago, you may be able to plead immaturity, and if your GRE or GMAT scores are high enough, get in on a probationary level somewhere.

you can always try the university of phoenix. Although this school is not highly regarded by top employers, you may get something out of it whether it be an education or a kick.

Yes. I'm sure you can find some on several matchbook covers that would accept you.

It is possible but extremely difficult. You will have to prove yourself big time.
