Re:There's an intern for that by dangrossman on Wednesday April 13, 2011 @08:16PM (#2444838)
I recently read some blog posts by HN frequenters about the work they have their unpaid interns doing. I don't believe it's legal to have them doing that work without pay; if you treat an intern like an employee, you have to pay them, or you're violating both federal and state labor laws.

Just a reminder.

Yeah this is true.

I'd like to use this space to say don't become an intern at some sleaze bag's company. Make sure they pay you more than they do at Taco Bell.
