Unpaid internships are unethical and are used to drive wages down

this

Interns don’t contribute anything. It’s a privilege to be in a business environment when you’re young.

hurry, import more third worlders that would certainly rise wages

How does said intern get money to live when he's not working for free?

I've always hated internships. They used to be called Apprenticeships where you learned, trained and got paid but that was when white people were allowed to work in the service and trade industries and own their own businesses and hire who they wanted to.

>The most sinister thing about internships is the unstated inference that once hired into the company you'll be compensated undeservedly later on.
Fuck corporate America

I got my degree in CS while working in a restaurant at night, then did a month of internship while wtill working.
Part time is an options.
Having parents that support you for few months is an option.
Having some cash in the bank to sustain yourself for few months is a thing
If you're really desperate you can get a small loan to hang on untill you know how your craft works
Stop pretending you don't have options, and stop using the leftist belief that you deserve shit and everything should be easy
Don't complain about not having opportunities, you're the one that has to make them

Says who? Our parents all were. Was it a privilege to pay $60,000+ to go to school only to be told its a privilege that we are allowed to do work?

Unpaid internships are just so you can have work experience on your resume.

I'm autistic and am defending unpaid internships. It's the only thing that lets disabled people build experience to learn from without being sheltered.

85 percent of people on the spectrum are unemployed. Yes working is a privilege. You don't see it because you're neurotypical. Neurotypicals easily get hired and it's harder for them to get fired because social skills are all that matter.

maybe, but where I work, interns do more damage than good, and cant be left alone doing anything more complicated than making copies and scanning documents

not worth the hassle to have around, not to mention the security changes that have to be made to even get them in the office. they are a complete waste of fucking time, and somehow they get course credit for running the copier for a few months. in the handful of years ive been at my current place, we've only had a couple of interns. if we had to pay them, we'd never use them at all. bossman takes pity on them tho, and makes us put up with them from time to time

Posting faceberg-tier memes. Nice.

I'm (owns a million dollar luxury boat) A (own's a 5 million dollar mansion with a privacy gate and personal armed guard) CEO (owns several expensive cars) and (has penthouses across the US along with expensive vacation houses) it's (goes on several luxury vacations every month) nearly (buys wife new clothes for every season despite having a two story closet filled with clothes that have never been worn) impossible (has weekly luxurious parties) for (has multiple staff of cooks, maids, and drivers on call) me (cuts wages so he can have more money) to (cuts benefits so he can have more money) pay (lays off people to raise profits) my (gets multiple tax breaks) employees (refuses raises to senior employees) more (lobbies for anti union laws)

>show up at company with no value
>be a distraction for productive employees
>probably screw up several times a day
>expect to be paid

All of this NPC corporate cocksucking really is entertaining.
>yes Mr. Goldberg, I really am a useless waste of air! Thank you for the privilege to let me be your bitch for free!

Our parents were extremely privileged. You are entitled to absolutely nothing, and neither were they. Instead of being a retarded leftist constantly blaming circumstances and giving up take what opportunities are available and do what you can. It's not that circumstance isn't to blame, it's just that blaming your environment isn't useful to you or anyone else.

unpaid internships should be illegal. You should always be paid for labor you do. Unless it's non profit volunteer work or something like that.

When did Jow Forums turn into the fucking generic conservative faceberg group

and I mean in my case it's just shit.. my job requires an internship getting through 4 years of university, for at least 6 months during which you're also still paying your school tuition, you're usually sent off to a site hundreds of miles away from home so you have to rent a place and feed yourself, and your program forbids you from working another job to make money so your family either has to support you or you have to dig yourself into debt.. to work for free for 40 hours a week.and no it's not getting coffee and making copies it's doing the actual job, it's like training when you get on a new job... except most jobs pay you during training, but not this shit. The clinical site I was at was running 3 interns at a time, none of them got offered a job, they just bring in 3 fresh interns to be slaves. To boot because it's a required part of your program, employers don't count your internship as job experience.
