Beginning An Internship Gifts

"Been following me around all morning. I think it's the new intern."

"You don't mind us shadowing you, do you?"

"I'm hoping an internship will lead to full-time copying."

"It's an internship - crime doesn't pay."

Her? She's my intern.

It's an unpaid internship, but it's good experience.

"The new apprentice is here."

"All interns go through this. You're lucky, this is nothing compared to the old days."

"Don't get your hopes up, Filby."

"I'm not sure about this new trainee - he asked me when does he get to see the actual ropes."

Laptop Dancing.

'I'm majoring in communication and minoring in pizza delivery - What about you?'

"The little engine that could... after taking advantage of family connections, a trust fund, working two years for free as an intern, and finally getting hired as an independent contractor."

"Damnit, executive-trainees don't have 'accidents'."

'You learn how to make dough later. For now, you're on a knead-to-know basis.'

"I don't have my law degree yet but I've got an internship down in cell block 'D'."

'It's a new technique for training interns: suture by numbers,'

"But if you were a real boy you wouldn't be allowed to work such long hours."

'I blame the nothing for something culture.'

"I think you should be aware that the chef is a summer intern."

"This is one of those great jobs you'd be willing to do for free. Will you do it for free?"

"I'd like to spend a year abroad before getting tied to quill and parchment."

"We can't actually pay you, but your work will get a lot of exposure."

'He's done well considering he was just a part-time summer intern.'

'No, no, no. Shout 'clear' BEFORE zapping him.'

"Buster, run this past legal."

'Now you know where you left your tools.'

"I'm not an intern, I'm a squire. I'm not an intern, I'm a squire..."

"Well yes, I was shorn by the apprentice, but I don't mind really: everybody has to learn somehow..."

'Your car's ready, but drive carefully for awhile. I had to give the student an 'F' for the work he did on it.'

Interning in D.C. Volunteering in Seattle. Trekking in Nepal. Lucky ducks! I'm stuck here working 2 jobs! Wow! You're getting paid?!! Who knew? Employment is this summer's must-have status symbol. Some parents envy you.

'As the intern, it'll be your job to work for free.'

'And this is Bert, our intern. He's been with the company for 46 years!'

End of summer fantasy vs. end of summer reality.
