While it's true she doesn't earn much in her non-paying internship, at least they match her IRA non-contributions. Sometimes, it's not the salary, it's the benefits!

She actually chose not to do an unpaid internship, which is kind of odd given how "awesome" they can apparently be, lol. Sigh.

No doubt her brother is Hamilton Pffaf. And their dog is Franklin von Pffaf. The cat? Jefferson von Pffaf?
The cat? I'm picturing...
