Unpaid internships no longer unpaid. by Illiad2009-02-03 08:39:09
  Yeah, unpaid internships trouble me enough. by esbita 2009-02-03 08:55:08
If the work you do is not worth getting paid, are you really getting meaningful experience? I could fetch coffee for those executive f4s at over ten bucks an hour where it's the job description, or do it for "free" inside their office where I'm STILL just a nebulous face to the staff.

Then again, a lot of "rich" kids never worked a summer job, never worked part time while in school. In that light, there may be a niche for this crap.

Not that it matters; I had to pay my own way at least part way so an unpaid internship simply was not an option. Much less one I'd have to pay for.
