Interns would be in a probation period.

They failed probation.

I received the same exact variance from my company because I needed a flat sole with my prosthetic leg to keep my balance from pitching forward...

“DOH! Anybody smell a law suit for unlawful termination? I wouldn’t put it past the genteel snowflakes.”

Duh. These were interns, not regular employees. Obviously not doing their job if spending all that time on a proposal to change the dress code and citing an existing ‘violation’ that was actually an approved variance ...


The worst part is that just before the meeting ended, one of the managers told us that the worker who was allowed to disobey the dress code was a former soldier who lost her leg and was therefore given permission to wear whatever kind of shoes she could walk in.

As my mom used to say...

Demand in one hand, s#!t in the other...see which one fills up first.

Buh-Bye!

Someone looked at how they thought it was important to spend their time and (ightly)decided they had their priorities mixed up.

Hopefully they will learn more from this brief internship than most.

I’m sure the interns were shocked, since they were rewarded for the same behavior in school.

The proposal was written professionally like examples I have learned about in school

Aww... damn.

Another case of real life not imitating academia.

You failed your probationary status at our company with your demands that we do anything out of our ordinary to make you fit in or feel better about yourself. This company does not exist for you. Jobs in the real world work the other way around. If you petition the boss with a demand when you do actually have a legitimate job with us, YOU WILL BE FIRED.

Being let go from an internship that pays $0.00 means we just called your college and you no longer get credit for 'helping out' at our place of business.

The dress is part of the intern process.

They failed. They’re gone.

Next?

Definitely this intern could have benefited from having held a job before then. Summer work, after school work, whatever. You learn fast and know how to behave by the time you graduate and go on to full-time work. I started hiring myself out to work in the harvest at age 9, babysitting at about age 12, after school office work at age 14, summer full-time work from age 16 on, part-time work during most of my college years. I was very experienced as an employee by the time I graduated.
