HC I ain't mad, I wish I had it like that too!
HC I just wish that this industry would take into account that not everybody lives that way, and by not paying interns they cut down on the number of qualified minority applicants they will receive
HC we just can NOT afford it
HC it's VERY frustrating
HC I agree, Soror?
HC I didn't take a training job at Fairchild Publications (Women's Wear Daily, W) in 1995 because they were only offering $25K for a job in NYC?
HC $25K wouldn't cut it for a woman with bills and no family support?
HC I think the magazine industry is truly a "Jill Job" situation?
