This intern is going to new heights for her job because, she claims, the 600-mile commute is more affordable than paying rent.
to catch her early morning flight, the 20-something argued that she would rather catch a flight every Wednesday and be able to spend time with her family.“A lot of people also think that I’m probably driving myself crazy mentally and physically getting up that early and taking two planes a day, but it honestly is not that difficult for me,” she added.“I understand this is a really untraditional thing to do, but it works for me,” said Celentano.
Breaking down the costs, she claims to be paying an estimated $100 per week on flights, $100 on Ubers and only $25 for food, ringing in at approximately $2,250 for the 10-week internship. “I think the most difficult part of this commute is not getting up at 3 a.m.,” she said, lamenting the hours-long wait at the airport before her flight home takes off. “The most difficult part is definitely having to wait for a couple hours at the Newark airport before my flight home.”
