Conclusion:-Though we’ve all done it, bunking the office, but don’t over do it. Suppose it your loss, not your firms.
Many friends of mine used to cradle about the low stipend given to mid-size firms. But honestly the goal of article ship is not to earn money, it to get as much exposure as possible. The money will automatically come when you have proper knowledge.so try to gain knowledge first.
