Re: Re: AAI letter to RIAI-unpaid work

so

architecture in Ireland becomes exclusive to those from particular social strata,

again. the general reputation of architecture as rich out of touch d4s persists where only people on daddy’s buck can afford a internship. (lets face it how often do you hear fn architects). people continue to avoid architects… engineers and technologists and the local construction teacher get the work… better?
i dont think i was calling for every intern to be on minium wage and full time employment, just given just rewards for what they do. a bit here and there if its a pay job. offices have people on 65hours a week, doing tenders documents etc for nothing. are you telling me that isnt exploitation? they were also at this before the recession so at least for some firms money drying up is not a excuse
