re: #95 Belafon
There was a study a few years ago that showed that jobs based on unpaid internships result in jobs that pay less than those that don’t.
I took some shit for it on a couple progressive blogs, but this is why I am dead set against high schools that require unpaid community service as a graduate requirement.
If the work is worth doing, it’s worth being paid for. If I volunteer, that’s on me. Don’t tell me to show up and work for free.
