It was a great growing experience. I learned a lot about myself and business in general. I really feel like it put me ahead of my peers.
What I wish was different
The hardest part was the part of town I was in. Some people are more accepting of what you are trying to do than others. Plus, I never had any real big paint jobs like other interns did. So I’m order for me to make the numbers they were making I had to work harder.
Advice
Don’t do it just for the money. If that’s the only reason you’ll quit like a lot of people did. You have to have a lot of motivation and perseverance to stick it out to the end, but if you do, it will totally be worth it.
