Unpaid internships, the world I once knew all to well. Unfortunately, I'm not a writer. Is there any chance of there being an art or graphic design internship position?
I don't have URLs for samples, as I am a librarian and mainly do research. The writing I've done is largely academic, aside from some entries in a book I researched. I feel that I am not worthy.
@psych0fred: That can't possibly stand up, can it? Unless I'm reading it wrong that illegalizes things like candy stripers and volunteering at soup kitchens.
Of course, I've felt like I've been living in Crazy Town for years now so...
@psych0fred: Hah. It is pretty ridiculous that the federal government made a law requiring companies to pay their employees.
@redqueenmeg: It wouldn't, usually, because hospitals and soup kitchens are usually not-for-profits; you're not an unpaid intern there, you are someone who is making a donation of time or work to a charitable institution.

@psych0fred: someone should let the government know that law is unenforceable because it does not establish a clear inertial frame of reference and, given the correct one, an intern could push papers around all day and never do any actual work.
