[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Take a language course abroad over the summer and live with a local family. Otherwise, tell him to get a job. Jeez some kids are so entitled! My mom would have laughed if I had proposed volunteering or doing an unpaid internship over the summer. She'd wonder how I was going to pay my bills.[/quote] Volunteer work makes one entitled?[/quote] As opposed to paid work, yes. [/quote] Damn, I'm so grateful for "entitled" people who have sacrificed their own time to help others. [/quote] Volunteering should be in addition to paid work, not replacing it. A job shows a level of maturity that goes beyond volunteering, since a volunteer organization will give you more leeway on performance than will an employer. When you are costing an organization money, you have to make sure that you are performing to the highest level--showing up on time and doing your job well.[/quote]
