dude, im gona silkscreen this quote into a t-shirt and wear it to work. im an intern myself, although i did get paid right now, all the internship jobs i did before actually thought i can run on just air...
gota turn on your sarcasm detector :)
- rabattski0
hahaha... please do. and i defenitely want to see a picture of you sporting that shirt.
for a minute i thought you were from berlin but you're not.
so berlin is not only the intern city of doom. you don't want to know what's going here on that level. it's sick, it's evil. i'm not an intern but i know what's going on here.
if you're very very very lucky you might get money, like 200 euros per month, and yes that's fulltime work and expect overtime. lots of it.
here agencies take on 6 interns easily. while their own regular workforce is like 2 regulars. use 'em up, never ever offer a real contract, just kick 'em out and get 6 new ones. it's cheap labour actually.
it's really nasty down here. should be made illegal.
