Internships are usually a part of every adolescent’s education.
For some, they inspire, for some, they are off-putting, and for others, they are much more boring than one expected.
In the case of one 15-year-old named Eddie (aka Edward) though, his internship ended up being quite an experience.
The teenager did a work placement with Southern Rail UK to get a sense of what a career working on the railways is like. As part of the placement, he took over the railway's Twitter to answer customer queries.
Hi, Eddie here! Here on Work Experience and ready to answer your questions! 😊

The questions posed to Eddie tended to not be on the subject of railways, but he remained enthusiastic and up for the task.
