@Calvin I second you @ Imagine it is not fair for a company to not pay someone some remuneration. At least commuter expenses and meals. For heavens sake, Make people know that they are worth the effort. As they say, always try and put yourself in others shoes and you will feel that pinch Thats that'. We live in an economy that is give and get. So let us try and practice that at times NB:// Using Social Media Wisely On 8 May 2012 07:39, Okechukwu <okechukwu@gmail.com> wrote:
Am in agreement with Collins & Wash on this - If an internship is required for you to complete your studies, then the school should actually give you money to complete your internship - I remember way back we were given 6,500/- which was never paid back (not a loan). The company is therefore at their discretion to pay you. I also remember a company like Kenya Railways used to charge the student for internship since they had the best workshops in the country and to use it you had to pay them! However, as an employer, I also advocate for giving something small - but at your discretion and not a right!

actually, Internship / attachment is usually a difficult time in a students career especially where (as is the case with most courses) it is an integral part of completing your academic studies. In most instances institutions organize for this, and in our days they even used to arrange for a "stipend" directly with the student.
I would however say the "intern" bein looked for by Norman above is actually cheap labour, which could be wrong. Unless of course there is stuff to be learnt thats of a unique and invaluable nature.

@ Collins
You did not address those who cannot afford.
I remember during my internship i used to share some of my funds with the cleaners when i found them at the bus stop - apparently waiting for 5 bob fares past 10pm, when the matatu was shouting 30 bob.
