This boss was particularly unimpressed by one of their interns, though. This fella can't do anything right! Especially in a day and age where Google can answer any question, there's just no reason an intern shouldn't be able to do simple tasks like fixing the formatting of a deck or summarizing “key numbers,” whatever that means. Plus, even if Google doesn't have the answers, this would teach the intern to determine the best person in the office to direct his question toward. Basically, there are tons of valuable lessons to be gleaned from an internship, but you have to want to learn. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink! And in this boss's case, they can put the intern in a desk chair, but they can't make him do a drop of work when he's feeling the entitlement of being Daddy's special boy.

Today I ****ed up by giving my intern a “shape up or you’re out” talk… and finding out he’s our biggest client’s kid

It's wild that this person's boss didn't step in earlier to provide them with such crucial knowledge! Very odd… it makes you wonder if the boss was trying to toss them under the bus.
I also wonder if the client would actually care if their kid succeeded here or not. The kid's got that company on his resume now — he can easily hop to another internship, or maybe even net a job that way (though he'll need a different person to give him a good reference!).
