Working for Free

Yesterday (the seventh day of Winterim), I interviewed one students, YoungJeong, from Korea, who is part of the "Total Mountain Experience" program. He told me about how they work on the ski mountain for two hours each day in different places every day. From one day to the next, they might work in the ski or shift shop:


They might also work in the cafeteria with Joe, the professional cook:

... or in customer service.

Everyday when students finish their job, they are allowed to take a break and ski on Wachusett Mountain. Though not compensated for their work, the students gain valuable experience in the service industry.
Comment plz and Thanks for reading this blog!!!
