Is being an intern the most cucked thing you can possibly do?

It's a boomer scam.
>You gotta pay your dues
Yes, my rent is due at the end of the month. Fuck working for free. In fact, if you intern, you pay to work as you have to pay for your car and gas to get there and the numerous opportunity costs.

It's so embarrassing. If you sink to the level of being an intern you should probably just kill yourself.

It's because they cannot properly run a business. Successful businesses will not ask you to work for free. If anything they will treat you well because they want top talent and paid interns who want to stay there full-time.

>>15982467
In colleges they will tell you to intern so you have something to put on your resume. But most of the time as an intern you will be doing bitch work, making coffee, cleaning up, shuffling papers, or doing Fiverr-like work. I understand a 21 year old falling for the scam, but out of college...

>> No.15982769

>>15982634
Well, yes
All wage labour is slavery, you are merely rented rather than owned. So if you don't want to be a slave, then you must be opposed to wage labour. That is communism.

Or it's about contributing into another business where if the business does well, so will you as you get paid more for your efforts. The more you are paid, the less likely you will leave and work for a competitor. No one is interning for free to sell donuts or work a cash register.

>getting paid more than the bare minimum
Ha! Good one anon! You almost had me going for a second there
That might've worked back when the people who owned the business were also present at the business, but the 50s were a long time ago. Nowadays most working class jobs are in giant corporations where the only way to advance is to get hired as a manager initially

Sort of but if you're an unpaid intern then Mr. Goldberg is just blatantly cucking you without even trying to hide it.

a couple of guys from my old school built an ecommerce company off the back of interns, pretty much unpaid slave labor. its one of the biggest online shops in my country now and theyre all millionaires if they go for an exit.

I had 6 internships before I graduated, all paid.

>>15984183
Was ironically paid half of this much on one of them
