ALL THAT ON THE FIRST DAY????? There's NO reason to be this hostile, let alone for a first infraction on a brand new intern.

In all fairness I’d love to read what they wrote. I don’t think this is a fair analysis

People don't see interns as a person to teach, but free labor to exploit.

Isn’t an internship specifically set up to be a mentoring and learning opportunity or have things seriously changed?

The intern no doubt shared those texts with their advisor or a teacher or parent--and was told to drop out. This was unacceptable and CRUEL.

Problem is, my reply would be extremely unprofessional… and when you’re fresh out of uni and it’s your first job you take these things to heart. That prob would’ve made me cry tbh

I'd be sending this to HR and be like "I think you need to coach this manager on how to properly manage, guide, and teach interns"... or I would say that to the manager themself while I quit and give them a link to a "how to be a better manager" article lol

I advise student media at a university. If this happened to one of my students I’d blacklist the company they were interning for.

What a horrible way to treat someone on their first day! That intern was so polite and trying so hard to do good. I really hope he spreads the word so others don't take that position.

The funniest part of this is the alternate universe the employer has imagined where people are dying to get into JOURNALISM

Judging by the spelling and grammar, on first glance I would’ve assumed the intern had 30 years’ experience and the boss did not. Aside from the bullying, his texts were actually painful to read.

Improper English in the first sentence by saying "in your street" instead of "on your street" from a boss in journalism criticizing an intern is so bad...

The intern probably showed too much promise and the manager felt threatened

Classically trained journalist here. I never learned anything by “reading articles.”

everything the "boss" wrote is all kinds of wrong but the "drama and tears" comment was crazy. there was literally no drama or tears in sight. it was a direct and professional message. the boss was the one trying to manufacture both drama and tears.

Oh, HELL, no. I'd go to HR and leave the internship. This is verbal abuse.

Crystal-FND Mama's Journey :
This manager got told he was getting an intern rather than being asked did he want to mentor an intern and it shows. That level of open hostile shows he never wanted to mentor in the first place.
