Edit: whoever downvoted doesn’t understand how bad and exploitive MMW is. I am not even exaggerating. And if MMW is mad, DM me. Let’s talk!

I did yes, they exploit interns. And no this isn’t just an y paid internship. Yes those can be very useful if you’re in the right industry but this place isn’t it. They aren’t connected with film industry giants, contacts or anything useful.

I interned there four years ago and they had me handle hazardous waste, sweep floors and do other interns jobs. This was 6 weeks into the position. So I quit! And they then harassed me on the phone! They never thanked me for my hard labor and just said goodbye. They then build a pavilion later that summer yet can’t afford to at least give interns a stipend or a clean working environment? They also over worked the higher up interns.

The students can be very snobby and so are the instructors especially the administrators who own the place.

When I say I recommend against, I mean this from my very unfortunate experience.

I will be glad to share with you photos in a DM too of my experience

Reply to Trump-loving candidate's election party 'devolved into chaos' after he conceded to Democratic rival: report - LePage, who previously served as Maine's governor for two terms, has a long history of making racist statements and also making threats of physical violence against his political rivals. by k11them

I bet you if trump were president or had the influence he used to have, LePage wouldn’t have conceded and he would have dragged this out somehow. And it’s good bc trump being nobody reallly shows these republicans they can’t just scream whenever they lose.

And he will do it. We always say he won’t just like we said Trump wouldn’t do what he did. It would be very likely he’d do something with our parks.

Also, when I served in the Maine Conservation Corps, a wonderful agency that fixes and builds trails across Maine and restored our parks and lands, they told me how difficult it was just to post a fucking photograph to Facebook, to get funding for simple things and overall the way it functioned was severely impacted and made miserable. Now Mills is in, they said they can get work done better and faster.

But I guess MCC isn’t important and big business is? Who’s gonna fix the parks? Who’s gonna keep the wood trails clean and working?

Or do we want no parks and just big old developed commercial centers everywhere like New Jersey?
