I'm a bootstrapped startup founder considering hiring an international student on an OPT (obtained after recent graduation from graduate program in US). Probably more of an employment law question but nevertheless - can I hire this person under an OPT for an unpaid internship. P.S. I would like to pay him but can afford to do so only on defferred terms e.g. upon funding etc.

guess John Mackey probably worked these into the terms of the deal. The glass half full view is hopefully - the employees have more time and are more focused on interacting with customers and educating them about all their esoteric inventory!
