Hypothetical: Internship
Assume that you decided to get an advanced degree in bioagrigeonumismatical engineering, with a minor in history. As part of your degree program, you are required to do an internship in bioagrigeonumismatical engineering.
The school lines up a lot of internships, and you study them and make your applications. You apply for temporary bioagrigeonumismatical engineering internships as follows: 1. Playboy needs a bioagrigeonumismatical intern for their "Bi-curious Supermodels Romping in Aruba" photo shoot. 2. Lamborghini needs a bioagrigeonumismatical intern to drive their newest model around the nation and monitor public reactions. 3. The Kansas City Chiefs are experimenting with a new bioagrigeonumismatical department, and they want to test the concept with some interns before they start offering big salaries to them upon graduation. 4. Seaborn Cruises needs a bioagrigeonumismatical intern to serve for three months aboard their renowned "Cruise of Opulent Luxury" that will sail the Mediterranean over the summer. 5. Famous management consultant Subagatti Misrwathornaportapatti needs a bioagrigeonumismatical intern to work very closely with his clients who are participating in his "Rich, Lonely People Without Heirs: How to Find a Worthy Acquaintance to Leave Your Estate to" seminar. Sadly, you had a typo on your resume, which stated that you have a "genious-level IQ", and in your cover letter you mistakenly said, "Your and idiot if you don't hire me." As a result, you didn't get interviews, and these internship positions were filled by other candidates that you tutored on weekends, and who aren't nearly as knowledgeable about bioagrigeonumismatical engineering as you are. You trudge to the internship office, and you find that there are four internship opportunities left. No one applied for these opportunities, so you can have your pick. They are: 1. Outdoors bioagrigeonumismatical monitoring 100 miles north of the South Pole, where it's now winter. 2. Outdoors bioagrigeonumismatical monitoring 200 miles northeast of Timbuktu in the Sahara, where it's now summer. 3. Underground bioagrigeonumismatical monitoring in the world's fourth-deepest coal mine, 200 miles northwest of Xian, China. 4. Urban bioagrigeonumismatical monitoring at a leper colony in a low-income neighborhood in Calcutta, India. |
