Free computer work for friends? No, I demand Liquor/Beer/Viewing of your boobies! A man has to have standards.

I have thought about this as I am stuck in a rut as it comes to my industry I currently in. I don't mind doing an internship (I did one in college and an apprenticeship in HS), but I have the problem with it in this aspect. If I took an unpaid internship, I wouldn't be able to live in the cities that have these kinds of career making positions. The only way I could do that is to work a 2nd shift job right after the unpaid intership (A few of the ones I looked at required I be on call on weekends and nights) or take out a loan to pay cost of living for that time. Living in my car for 3 months while I work for free is not my idea of decent standard of living.

If I was in college and could tack on a student loan to my already huge loan bill and do it? In a heart beat. Now? No, I can't live like a bum just to make some contacts.

Are we talking about volunteering at soup kitchens and habitat for humanity? That I would do to help out my community, after I got home from my paying job.
