Roast PAFC in house content production

[Expat power]

It's symbolic of the creative industry.

Think about the exposure and how great it will look on your resume

[backtozero]

We just can't stop existing to win premierships and making the community proud.

Seriously, what an embarrassment for the club. What the heck is going on inside those four walls.

Shameful. Koch needs to step down

 

[Duck Farmer]

Ooh look, Ports are looking outside the tent for once. Can't pay you anything though...

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Isn't basically every position at footy clubs unpaid except for the players, coaches and managers?

 

[PowerBaz]

Did they take the post down?

 

[Workingclass]

Working class battler club from the rough end of town eh?

Kochie's neoliberal conversion of Port Power Inc complete, except we f**k our own and can't even win a flag.

 

[manureid]

It's a pity most of the goals we seem to kick are own goals.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Did they take the post down?

Yes

 

[GoPorts]

This is some Trigg era Crows level of punching yourself in the nuts

Sure youse won't get any money but think of the learndings

 

[sobrave]

The club will have done three dumber things than this by COB today.

1. Not sack Hinkley
2. Not sack Koch
3. Not sack Jed McEntee

 

[PowerBaz]

So is Carr on an internship?

Only people who aren't paid at AFL Clubs are Board Members (other than a small honorarium, not enough to be a motivating factor) and a small band of volunteers.

I think short term unpaid internships can have their place when you have a very small company with only a handful of employees and a young student who would like to gain experience. But big companies like Port who turn over $60 million a year and simply use the word internship as a way to scam free labour, just no. Typical of the elitist club we have become.

Mmmmm … unpaid internships are legal, and this person even states two conditions/circumstances where they are … what you can’t do is dress up an employee relationship as an unpaid internship. If it is truely an internship, and meets the conditions of an internship, I don’t see the problem.

Because it's a massive company employing an obscene number of people on well above average incomes who take bucket loads of government funding for all manner of stuff, ask ~60k members to pay membership fees annually and constantly parade their ESG virtues and talk about what amazing people they are and what great work they do in the community. Don't then be cheap arse parasites scamming free work from young people, just pay them.

At least it makes you realize they see every single comment about Ken. Every one of them. Suck it.

The only time they are legal is if it's done as a part of a university course.
What the club was advertising wasn't that.

There is a thing called 'work observation' which is where an 'intern' shadows someone in a role they want to do, this is usually unpaid but it's also a specified and fixed time frame, like a few days, or at most, a week or two.

Work experience is generally for high school students and is unpaid, but has some very strict guidelines around times, locations, tasks, etc. The paperwork is hefty, even for something like a graphic designer.

If the club had presented this as an internship program that was based on a fixed number of weeks, 4 max, with a focus on young person learning new skills, then that would be ok. Depending on the person's situation then a small travel allowance would also be included.

This was an advert for a job without any pay.


The biggest problem with unpaid internships is that the only people who can take advantage of them come from a financially privileged background. People from lower socio-economic backgrounds, or immigrant families, or those from regional areas, are just shut out of the loop.

It's why the creative comms industry in Australia (advertising, design, marketing, PR, etc) is so 'white bread'.

Looks like Hutchy might be using an unpaid intern at SEN too...
