Um. Can't the same be said about college?
As someone who comes from a poor family, couldn't afford college, and went the mentor-with-free-work route instead, your comment is particularly and hilariously myopic. :)
- s73v3r_ 8y agoNo, it can't. For one, college has massive amount of financial aid that can come along with it. And tell me, how did you eat while going the "mentor-with-free-work" route? How did you put a roof over your head? If the answer to those is "family", then you're not one of the people that my comment was about.
- bpchaps 8y agoI moved into an overpriced shithole apartment at 19 while working at a NOC in the city. Before moving out, I was doing a 5hr/day commute and paid rent to my parents. Pretty sure I'm one of the people you're talking about. Are you advocating against mentorship as a principle?
- s73v3r_ 8y agoI'm advocating against free work. If you do work, you should be paid for it.
