[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My intern emailed me to ask if he could go home early to beat this afternoon's storm because he forgot his umbrella. Are you kidding me?! Is it just me or does that seem ridiculous? Or did I miss a major hurricane warning? We're right at metro center, BTW, no shortage of umbrella shopping opportunities. How would you respond to this? I'm leaning toward ignoring it since it's my day off and I'm only responding to urgent email. Too passive aggressive? Teachable moment? Smart kid otherwise, just occasionally entitled. Anyone else field this type of requests?[/quote] what business are you in? In banking, you have interns who refuse to leave work and work till death from exhaustion due to wanting to get that full-time offer. I don't come across lazy or stupid interns these days - if anything it is a bit sad, they are all so dull from grinding so hard focused only on their career.[/quote]
