<p>The way to find out whether they love you is that if they have openings next year will they bring you back.</p>
<p>Depends on the office and industry!</p>
<p>lol TomServo wins</p>
<p>“So who do I have to sleep with to catch a break around here?”</p>
<p>On a serious note though, which idiot would say some of these phrases at work??</p>
<p>lol… can you imagine saying, like in Star Wars, “Yes my master.” hahaaa</p>
<p>It’s funny, I said all the “good” things at one of my prestigious internships - and meant them! - and was actually still trashed by my bosses (behind my back of course). HR had a field day with my department when we all filed complaints after leaving (or being harassed into quitting for my two co-interns). That team wouldn’t have run without any of us interns, and they still treated us like we were some second-class people.</p>
<p>“Natalie, we have an emergency.” (run around the entire arena after trashing $20 worth of uneaten lunch) “Can you get that puck, right there? Thanks.” The puck was literally within arms reach. He only wanted me to hand it to him. We won’t even discuss how several of our bosses defamed us. And no, I’m not working 130+ unpaid hours a week to wrap your Christmas gifts. A union really isn’t a bad idea once you’ve been on the other end & aren’t some poor interns’ boss anmore. Just a hint, saying, behind my back, to boot, “look at her handicap, do you think she can actually DO anything?” is not what your HR deparment likes to hear.</p>
<p>We have just as many horror stories about you employers as you do about us interns. =D</p>
<p>These are hilarious. I have done three internships and indeed have put up with some *****.</p>
<p>My boss loves to tell me about how much fun she had in college, including her fake ID. I think the only time I mentioned that I was going out was on my 21st birthday and I didn’t go into detail.</p>
<p>However, when I called out one morning with a stomach flu, I’m pretty sure the coworker who answered the phone was trying to subtly give me hangover cures.</p>
<p>Once, a co-worker told me he was shocked when an intern asked if she could go home early one day when she didn’t have any more to do But it reminded me of my own teenager’s job - when things get slow they are sent home. So i’m sure it seemed perfectly reasonable to the intern!</p>
<p>How about telling your Wall Street banker boss: “You don’t mind if I talk to Jesse Ventura about these investments for ‘Conspiracy Theory?’ They look a little dicey to me.”</p>
<p>Oh my god these are actually hilarious. Now I’ll now what to say on the last day of my internship to really **** them off. (JK. not smart)</p>
