Intern Chick

My current internship has me on lock down.  I go in there three days a week only, and sit at my desk, and waste away (I really am trying to make the best of it, ever since I posted about it).  So when I send people my resume, or mention where I've worked, they're completely excited about it.   Then the big question comes..."what's your availability?"  I think every time I've told someone I'm only available two days a week they've had to stifle the belly laugh rising from their throats.  They think that the time spent training me, or should I say "wasted" (probably their word, definitely not mine) will not be worth the time that I can put in.  What they don't know is I'd do anything for that internship--hell, I'd come in the office every day and give them a foot rub just to be given the opportunity to network with other A&R's.  

I can't necessarily leave my current internship...is that even in the rule book??  I keep hoping for it to get better...I keep hoping for someone who will give me that chance, that 2-day-a-week chance to prove myself.  So last night, I sent out 6 messages, 6 because it is my lucky number (yes, I completely realize the ridiculousness of this, but like I said--I'm at my wits end here!).  So far, one person has read the message and not responded, 2 people have asked me to send over my resume, and I'm still waiting on the other 3.  If something doesn't come out of this, I think I might just have to turn my resume into a billboard sized sign, dress in some crazy get up, a la Naked Cowboy in Times Square, and wait outside someone's office for that chance.

Someone please tell me this is a bad idea--the more I think about it, the more normal it seems.
