I interned in the Education Department at the Met while I was in high school! To this day, it was the best job I've ever had. I always tell people working there was like working in Heaven. When I worked there, the museum was closed to the public on Mondays, but the employees were free to go up to the galleries. Having the entire museum to myself was one of the greatest experiences of my life. Did you ever get to do this? What was it like for you? Any particular areas that you gravitated to? European paintings, modern art, and the Egyptian sections were my favorites.
