Spike ,'Same Time, Same Place'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm gonna take a stand and say I'm against 10 hour workdays. I cannot keep this up.
msbelle, I highly recommend the Zombies Run! version of couch to 5K for getting you and the dog from walking to jogging or whatever. It's done me a world of good and not left me all sore hardly at all.
I should be running right now but I just got home and I'm kind of dehydrated and weepy and semi-catted.
Made the mistake of checking work email from home. How to tell a certain someone that I made a decision because it was convenient for me, considering she's no longer a part of any equation. The trials of keeping up a front while planning for the actual future.
But speaking of, to get specific: if you had an unpaid intern and a seasonal part time paid employee starting on the same day, and the unpaid person would be working 40 hours a week, with the paid being only allotted 20 hours, would keeping their roles distinct also dictate making their first day of work distinct? As opposed to bringing them both onboard in a similar fashion, but one has more responsibilities ;by which I mean time) with no pay, and the other less but paid. It'd be more efficient for me, but it seems more unfair to the two positions to be lumped together with such disparate wages and responsibilities.
Considering that most unpaid internships are run in violation of US Department of Labor guidelines in the first place, I'm sure there's more than just lumping the positions together at fault here.

I concur. I'm in week 7 of 8. There have been times when it has felt like a bit of an under-challenge, but I'm okay with that, as it's getting me there in the end.
Explain, ND, if you can. I'm off to do some research now.
A quick google shows guidelines for for-profit orgs. Will delve deeper, as we are a nonprofit.
I should be in Week 8, Debet, but I have been unable to get a run in so far this week. Sadface. But I'm registered for an actual 5K on Saturday, so that's happening.
aurelia, what's your resume sitch?
And now I want to say something about unconscious coupling, but I'm not sure what that is....
That's certainly something I've done.
Okay, that's all doable, and been done. Especially since we treat everyone as a student and the job as one big class. (I'm hoping the seasonal part timer can become full time what with a directors salary available, if she ends up being as awesome as she was in her interview). I do see that boss lady sorely abused the last intern. Won't let that happen again. I was all useless with a sprained ankle and just furiously thankful for the tainted help. As well as woefully ignorant of laws (I've always dealt with unpaid interns doing it for school credits, so never thought twice about it).
