I just randomly remebered how my internship last year was a terrible experience. 

I was asked to wash plates twice, I ran errands for fuel whenever they took light, I was asked to buy food multiple times, and also dealt with senior officers who were intrusive. To make matters worse I wasn’t paid a dime for three good months. It was honestly really terrible. 

Is this a common experience for interns? And has anyone experienced this?

My department don’t go on internship  so I did not experience it
