Student exploitation Memes

The eternal developer nightmare: being asked to build something "for the experience" while someone else profits from your work. That school project is basically saying "Hey kids, compete against each other to build our website for free, and maybe we'll give you a gold star!" The kicker? You're not just doing unpaid work—you're doing unpaid work with the added pressure of a competition. It's like being asked to interview for a job by building their entire product first. Next thing you know, they'll ask students to "redesign the school's enterprise database system for extra credit."

OH. MY. GOD. The AUDACITY of schools asking students to compete in creating their website only to STEAL THE WINNER'S WORK! 🙄 It's the corporate equivalent of saying "Hey kids, design my logo for free, and I'll give the winner a shoutout on Instagram!" Except the prize is... absolutely nothing but the privilege of having your work exploited! Congratulations, you've just experienced your first taste of the tech industry's favorite pastime: getting professional work done for the bargain price of a gold star and a pat on the head! 💀
