My son was recognized by the school FB page for finishing the Blank Internship Program

After 2 weeks the Blank Firm gave him a job offer…………32 hours making minimum wage.

He called and said that he was starting college and doing summer school, 32 hours could not happen, could they work with his schedule? They ghosted him

Told my son, it was a learning experience, but his time missing out on other experiences is valuable

I had another student came in and ask about the program, I told him to steer clear
