I had a couple bosses and though they were mostly apathetic to the interns; only one in particular was helpful when I reached out.

The other interns told me there is a "high turnover rate" and I know why. There was a fashion assistant that didn't seem to like brushing her hair that would routinely walk to the back room just to tell interns their work looked "like ****." It isn't about needing to be thanked, but to literally be shooed away ...
