Just got an internship in a big company. Related to web development but they want me to use/maintain legacy jsp, servlet code. Should I take it? There are other departments too but I have been put in this shitty one.

    Accept - but let them know not to be surprised if their jsp code turns into python or whatever language you're sharpest at.

    Unfortunately, that's how internship become nowadays! Companies looking for someone to do the dirty work with minimum costs.

    Keep in mind - when hired to do legacy support with promises to do new stuff, you will most likely only do legacy stuff.
