A Healthy Intern Is a Productive Intern
Most of our interns come straight from kitten college, so they don’t usually have the best eating habits. Not Fred here. He’s laser-focused on fitness. We tried to tell him that cats don’t actually need greenery but apparently the fitness influencers on Instagram disagree. And of course, they know better.

Cross Department Friendships
Interns start out doing basic work, but most eventually drift to departments that match their personalities. Fred’s special skill is getting along with everyone so he’s really a cat of the people. This has led him to spend a lot of time with the security department. They don’t have a lot to do, so they…

Job Titles Are Tough
Finding a job title for interns is difficult. I mean, we can’t just call them interns, right? Sometimes, we try harder than others. In this case, I think Lucy’s manager was either confused or lazy. I know she’s very artistic, but just giving her the title of “Paints” is a new low. If she hadn’t…

Customer Relations Part 1
Sometimes interns have to talk to customers. It’s not often, but sometimes it’s unavoidable, much to management’s regrets. Interns, unfortunately, have rarely developed filters for what customer’s should and shouldn’t know. Sometimes these customers don’t know how to interact with others and while we’d all like to tell them, doing so doesn’t usually help. So…

The Milk Bar
Some days can be tough. At the end of the day, you just can’t wait to get out of work and think about anything else. And maybe you just want to go some place where everybody knows your name. We work our interns hard and they all have their favorite bar where I sure hope…

Work Fatigue
Sometimes we all don’t feel like going to work. And on those days, maybe we clock in, even when aren’t technically all there. But it still counts! Manny here is taking that to heart. He’s at work…somewhat. But that arm is all he needs to punch the time clock and get credit for being there.

Never Sell Alone
The business world is full of bullies. No one really likes it, except the bullies, but it’s true. We work hard at Kittinterns Inc to weed out employees like that, but other companies aren’t so stringent. We sell in teams so when the competitor shows up, tries to make us look bad, and even makes…

Promotion!
Sometimes you see an intern that just has something special. They’re a natural leader or are gifted with a special talent for your industry. In this case, Manny distinguished himself as the best at getting gains, which is one of the primary focuses of Kittinterns, Inc. So we had to promote him to head intern!…

She’s always very concerned when we take them for their company-mandated training(weigh-ins) but she also volunteers for all the work(pets) we can give…

Dictation
Many interns can be expected to take dictation from more senior members of the team. This offers them a great opportunity to see the process that big decisions take from inception to execution. It also allows those with experience to pass that on to newer team members and gives the new members the opportunity to…
