flip flop
How deep do my convictions go? Well, on some issues, apparently not very deep.
After my righteous tirade against unpaid internships yesterday, I can say, if this particular internship at this particular time is offered to me, I will take it.
It would fit in nicely into the four-month slot before my hoped-for paid summer internship -- somewhere. Because I am just finishing school, this may be the only time an unpaid internship makes sense. I won't be paying them, as I have been in school, and will be learning, getting experience to place on my resume, and be making welcome contacts. So, there are pluses.
Better than sitting at home not working.
I don't know if an unpaid internship expects you to stick around if a paying job comes along. In that situation, they would have precious little to back their case.
Blowin' in the breeze . . .
