[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree. My Senior had an internship working on a project with the James Webb Telescope. This is in the field of her desired career. Next summer, she wants to study abroad with an internship that is painter has stipend and expenses within the same field. I want experiences that contribute to her desired career only. She will not be needing to know what shift work is like so it is unimportant for her to have a “nothingburger” job.[/quote]

Fine, as long as she refrains from ever voicing opinions about what working class people should or shouldn’t do to improve their situation. And watch out for her sense of self-importance. [b]When she eventually gets her desired career, she’ll likely work alongside people who have had “nothingburger” jobs, and they can smell that from a mile away.[/b][/quote]

This is so real. For better or worse people can attach a lot of meaning to lack of real world work experience and attribute negative characteristics to people who haven’t worked a service industry job. There is absolutely judgement and a lack of respect for those who are perceived as having taken the cushy way out of working a “real” job.
