    TLDR from the actual interview with her:

    • She did lose the internship. He did try to get it back for her but it didn’t work.
    • She eventually ended up working for Boeing, but on commercial jet engines rather than space stuff.
    • they called her to rescind her internship while she was at her brother’s wedding

        Nothing wrong with that, need to keep in touch with friends somehow.

        Posting shit like this on a social media account tied to you irl is just being stupid, that’s what burners are for. If I said shit like this to a higher up at a company that I just received an internship at (even somewhere with waaaay less prestige than NASA), I would not be expecting to keep that internship.
