Internships should also be paid. I'm getting my educator license, and when it comes time to teach for a year, they're going to pay me to do that. I'm not sure how much, but it beats nothing at all.

Internships absolutely should be paid, otherwise it's exploitation.

It's sad because in most instances it is exploitation. :(

Any work rendered should be paid. Period.
To F* H* with 'doing it for experience/exposure' neither of those pay bills. :}

Foxes are clever, perceptive, and shrewd. You're happiest working behind the scenes, pulling strings and watching others dance to your imperceptible tune. Independent yet highly social, you glide among your circles of acquaintance with ease, sharing your sharp wit or a delicious piece of gossip.

I'm a professional illustrator, and I have heard the exposure arguement from all sorts of people. The most recent was a retired professor that wanted me to do abstract work for a book of poetry and he told me straight up that he wasn't getting paid and neither was I and I didn't mind that for a moment. Then I got to thinking about it, and I started to mind it more and more lol.

Well, he's 60+ years old and he taught writing in college for some time. He promised me three copies. I just have projects I want to finish because I know I'll at least make some money from them. :/

Projects that make money are priority. I find that I'm not motivated to do work if I'm not getting any monetary gain from it.

The only time I do not expect monetary gain from something I make is when I do it for my own leisure or it is made explicitly to be a gift. :}

Yep. And those are all non-work related things, they're the rest of life.
