We are the gate keepers to published fiction, grant proposals, blog items, spread sheets, press releases, government research, news compilations, and innovative policies. We work at $8 an hour (if we're lucky) to create quality work that our bosses get credit for. We impact national and international financial markets, media outlets, lobbying strategies, publications, you name it.
The 18-20 something SIs and YPs (young professionals) do the grunt work. Up the pay, bosses of the world - you get raises for our ideas.

This is very very true. We interns may be at the bottom of hierarchal totem pole, but we have direct access to a ton of the really important things our companies/bureaus/politicians produce. We truly are a secret stash of movers and shakers..SO BE NICE TO US!
HINT: When you ask for a title while speaking to one of us on the phone, and we decide not to lie to you and disclose that yes, we are in fact interns DO NOT scoff or make some other verbal equivalent to rolling your eyes. WE are the ones to have the power to forward your call or give your message to "someone who actually matters", so BE COURTEOUS. We may not yet have the title, but we sure as hell have the power.
