Just curious, how did a job that was intended for the hot 20-somethings that didn't know what they wanted to do in life become a career with expected benefits?

I honestly don't mean any disrespect to FAs ... just curious how that happened?

I'd like to see an internship program setup where 20-somethings work for 6-8 years while attending part-time college (paid for by the company). Then, once graduated, the company could hire from within the best candidates. If they weren't hired, they would move on and use their degree in another field.

Let me dream ...
