I don’t know what to do about my job! Please answer! Really need help!!?

Question by MP: I don’t know what to do about my job! Please answer! Really need help!!?
Kind of long, but please help!!

So I’ve been interning at this indie music management company for over six months now. I’m starting to come to a crossroads right now. My boss has been telling me that I’m going to move up. I even got a “promotion” at one point telling me that when he revises his business model, I will go on commission. But that was like 2 months ago.

Also, I am doing the same amateur tasks I started doing the first week of my internship. He keeps telling me that he has more advanced tasks for me, but he always goes back on his word. I am doing the same work that new interns are doing. I’ve been here for 6 months. They have been here for one month and WE’RE DOING THE SAME JOB!

Besides that, I feel as though he’s taking advantage of me because he treats me like his assistant. He calls me on my cell asking if I could work from home. Of course, I say yes because that’s just me and then I wonder why I did it. Besides, I’m not getting paid for this internship, but it is something I want to do in the future so that is why I keep holding on.

My question is: what should I do about this? How do you guys feel? Should I confront him or what? I’m just really annoyed and confused. Please help!! Please answer!

You should find another internship.

I have never heard of an internship that lasted 6 months – that’s more like volunteering.

If you are doing the same activities for 6 months, then you are not learning anymore & that I think is the point of an internship.
