Dear fedi I'm livid. An acquaintance of mine almost finished college and after doing an *unpaid* six months internship was offered a follow-up contract for less than 500€ a month. If you wonder why European young people are mad that's pretty much why.

I'll be doing anything in my power to make sure he'll never work there so if you have an opening or internship for a young person starting his career let me know.

He'll finish the equivalent of a bachelor in computer science in May next year, has done some six months of hands-on work in security and is one hell of a worker. I can personally vouch for him. He's based in Italy and can do both in-person and remote work, and might be able to relocate to the NL and possibly the UK if need be.

Boosts appreciated.

@gabrielesvelto Internship..

I did a full time study that costs quite a lot but I also made over 2100 hours internship since it was required. That’s also 2100 hours unpaid fulltime work + study costs

My two brothers did a work-study and earned quite something while studying a bit

I may be a millennial but I’m 33 and still repaying study loans from studies I never got to use so I understand also very well
