• If ya can’t stand the heat…

  I responded to an entry that was featured yesterday.  It was by a girl who is half Phillipino and half Caucasian.  She wrote something like “What I hate about white people.”  One of the things she said was ignorant was Free Internships.  I responded (she already had 101 comments) that a free internship for a college student would look better on a resume than “exotic dancer at KnockersUp” or “Fry girl at BurgerBiggie” even though the latter two would earn her some pocket change.  My point was, a little less money now for a better future.  (As a hiring manager, I might be able to negotiate a higher than entry level salary for someone who’s worked in the field during college, whether it was as a free intern or a paid part-time summer help.)

  I received a couple of replies to my comment, but evidently, this girl couldn’t take the heat, so she put her blog on friends lock, so I can’t even go now and read my comments.

  Why do people submit controversial blogs for featured content if they aren’t willing to subject themselves to comments they may not like?
