doing a virtual internship at a boutique and he makes me do like non-time pressing tasks. Everytime we engage in emails he reponds like days later - I typically ask a clarifying question when he initially emails me something to do and he'll respond like 3 days later at 10pm.
Is this normal? - obviously I'm aware I'm a lowly intern doing unimportant stuff and he has 100 other things on his mind
