Finished my first week interning at a candidate's congressional campaign. Incredibly fast paced, and learned quite a bit about stuff relating to campaigning for political office.
Though working additional hours via weekend campaign events can sometimes make me a sad panda. Simply because I work 7-8 hours, Monday to Friday. And on top of that, I'm pretty much sacrificing my rest days to contribute more. But if I were to work in another campaign in the future, the possibility of working overtime will definitely be there. I can at least say I'll be well prepared by then.
Overall, though, this internship is well worth it.
