batskeetsApparently the jobbyjob I was solicited about last Friday is actually an internship. Which, in itself, is not a bad thing, except that it's also unpaid. ^^;;;;
Now, don't get me wrong: I want real-world experience. I don't mind taking an unpaid internship *at all.* The only real problem is that, y'know, I probably wouldn't have a place to live, because most places want money in exchange for silly things like water, electricity, and internet access. So, in effect, I *CAN'T* survive unless I pull down at least ~$500/month. And that's bare minimum. I also need to keep putting money into savings, so I'll have something to live on post-grad if I don't find a job right away. Bugger.
Still, I did get stuck with only 13 credits for next term, thanks to schedule conflicts and the registrar's complete lack of help, so maybe, *maybe*, this is something I could do? And it runs into the summer, when I'll have a lot more time for things in general. And it'll give me something more corporate to put on my resume. *And* I'll get experience with Quark Xpress, which is something I don't have at the moment.
I must ponder this. And ask them how many hours they're looking for.
