The obvious answer is that everyone acts in good faith. Firms that can pay should, and applicants should make the most of the opportunities given to them

But the reason people want to establish rules are the bad actors. I just don’t see how any of the proposed rules stop the bad actors

Payment does a nice job of creating expectations of work and delivering on objectives, but closes the number of opportunities for obvious reasons

Expecting all positions to be paid will close off the people who benefit the most from an internship

It’s basically an area where all the options suck

I’m sure I’ve said this before but every time jazz pops up in my Apple Music recs I’m like “aww yeah, thanks Apple, I *am* a cool guy”

And then it puts me in my place with some nerdy chiptune or something
