Lost internship position, feeling worthless

Ugh, so I just woke up this morning with the flu, after working 10 hours yesterday on a project for my lab internship and FINALLY getting some results.  I was excited enought to even want to go in today, sick, and finish my checks.  Then I open my e-mail and find a new message from my boss saying that he's letting one other undergrad and myself go because he can't supervise us.  WTF???  He NEVER supervised us, and we've both still been getting work done and learning a lot!  Plus like I said, I JUST got my experiment to actually work!  So I send him my current results and he replys back that I should finish my project before leaving.   fired me because I apparently can't be trusted to work on my own, then asks me to spend one more week finishing this project THAT I'VE DONE ENTIRELY ON MY OWN.

Well, f-ck him.  I'm still going ot finish it, but for my own sanity's sake because I want to know if this works or not. 

I just feel like a complete waste of space, totally worthless and stupid.  Poo.  At least I don't have to invite him to the wedding now!

  • I'm so sorry to hear that! It sounds like he wasn't a terribly nice guy, so it sorta sounds like good riddance!

  • Wow that really sucks, I'm so sorry. I'm a student too and actually at my internship. In the spirit of commraderie take my discount at the place I work for. It's 25% off at swimspot.com. My email here is vee@swimspot.com, send me a message so it looks legit and I'll give you the code and everything. I hope that perks your day up a bit :)
  • Aw man! That's terrible. Like you said, at least you learned something. I study filmmaking and we're taught that even if we screw something up, we learned what not to do. Not saying you screwed anything up, but the point being that you didn't actually waste any time! It was just not for the reasons you had hoped for. And hell, you're talking about doing experiments! That sounds like smart stuff! My experiments consist of mixing cereals and hoping I dont get sick after! :P
