She was able to work, for free, in her freshman summer, while going through for a finance degree. So many questions:
Where did the money come from? Who paid her tuition?
Why not go through for Co-op, where you obtain a job as part of schooling? Or why did she have to hunt for internships? Even my wife, who had unpaid internships and family to back her up during the same time, had help from the school to find it. How jank is U of Texas?
Why, pray tell, is a finance degree holder the CMO?
I mean, I’m happy for her, but how useful is her recommendations? If you don’t have a family who can pay your tuition and summer living costs, this is useless.
And ignoring how people need money in order to have shelter and food, what does she think happe s if everyone starts doing this? Should I be calling up everyone at SquareSpace and asking for a job?
It really does sound like one of those “with a small donation from my parents” story. And even if it’s not, great for her, she was lucky. Does she really believe most students just smoke weed and fuck all day or something? Every single person I knew from the US that went to uni worked during uni. Hell, even as a European I had to work despite the state money I got.
I know people who donated blood and plasma just to get by - and they had scholarships!
How can employers be “in dire need of employees” and people still have to hustle to get a job? They obviously aren’t in dire need.
