Today, I found out that my company is paying more for hors d'oeuvres at one party than I will receive for my entire year long internship. FML

You're just an intern. Be glad they invited you. I'd be stoked to go to a party with free expensive shit.

This is when you put on your mini skirt and show some cleavage... Let the Negotiating begin!

Forget that! WATERMELON the CEO's house!

And the CFO too, since your complaint is with their budget. Pumpkin his house in October.

And then we burn his house down with lemons?

Stop bitching and enjoy the food. A lot of intern burst their ass off and get pay nothing.

For those who don't know how to say hors d'oeuvers, the way you say it is or-derbs

... presumably you actually meant: "or-dervs" :o)

Oh yea my bad I use my iPod for fml soo ya what he said^

I uses to use my iPod & now I use my iPhone. It's pretty easy to type the correct letter.

Hurrah for modern indentured servitude!

... lets compare, shall we? As an intern, you do work for a small group of people (possibly even just one person), probably require a fair bit of instruction, and can't create much value of your own; The hors d'oeuvers make lots of people in the company (and possibly customers too) very happy when they get eaten... I don't see that the company is obliged to pay you just because they have the money - particularly if they would have to skimp on the hors d'oeuvers as a result.

Awww nooo..that's just wrong. I'd ask for a raise...and from personal experience..if they don't give it, it's time to look for another job.

You signed up for an internship...that's what sucks about them. Get over it or get a real job.

I know how you feel. I am just starting an internship that doesn't pay me and I have to pay a lot of money for it!
