Let's hear some good stories about internships. Here's one:
I was interning for a small ad agency, got bombed at a work party, made out with the chick that did our accounting and subsequently got kicked out of a sex-shop. Pretty awesome night. Albeit embarrassing.

I was an intern once at a very well know london agency and the company director's wife used to flirt with me all the time, all the while I was trying to impress him with my work. She did me no favours career-wise.

You're absolutely right. :) However it was really very uncool...

i couldn't work the photocopier at this place once and managed to get to copy 30 copies. in my haste to cancel it I decided to pull the plug out of the wall which some-how coincided with the server losing power. Appears I pulled the plug on the server. Imagine how scared I was when the door opened and five red faced senior designers walked in rolling up their sleeves shouting F- words.
I thought I was gonna die.

honest, my photocopier at work always thinks it has a paper jam when it doesn't, so I often have to take the plug out of the wall. One time I thought I ruined the entire machine since it turned off and wouldn't turn back on again. I just slowly left the room and came back later when a co-worker claimed the photocopier was working fine for hours. wtf?

(Jun 23 06, 07:35)Jaline my dear, photocopiers are manufactured intentionally with gremlins which fuel the copy repair man industry. If anything happens to present an error when there isn't one, open the door to the toner cartridge and then slam it shut, this resets the copier and it should then work as normal.

saw my boss run over the office cat with his chair and cut its tail off. blood spurting everywhere.
the cat was fine after clawing him back and a trip to the vets.

that cat isn't done yet, it's only getting warmed up.

A couple years ago i was digging around in the basement of the building and discovered an old model space shuttle, brought it up and left it on a co-workers cubicle. Was then asked to remove it as it was a model of the space shuttle that had exploded the week before.

I was awake for two days working a giant auto conference at Cobo Hall in Detroit. I started to get a little loopy around 3 AM on day two, and decided to play with one of the electrician's scissor lifts. I gave people rides to the top of Cobo's 40 ft. ceilings and back down. At some point during th efun the LP gas ran out and we were stuct trapped up agsinst the ceiling. Took us an hour to figure out there was a release that let the hydrualic automatically lower the lift when the power was out.

I really wanted to work there but there was no chance because of the wife. No nothing happened between us (who do you think I am, Stfler?)
But she did have a photo of me aas her desktop for a year after I left (mainly becuase someone in the studio put it there and she didn't know how to removed it).
The CD used to growl at my picture everytime he walked past.
