I wouldn't be so quick to judge if I were you - would you be happy to try and support yourself on minimum wage your whole life, or would you be happy that you helped out such a great place
for free for
4 years giving of your vacation time because you just wanted to help out
when you could? It's just reality, It's not a job that would pay the bills, and it does not in any way make me a "sell-out" for choosing a job that could support myself, a family, and even my reptiles - which I could not afford if I stayed at the zoo. That zoo is small, seems to have more volunteers than employees, so I might not have even got a job there. I never even asked to be hired, because I just valued and loved the experience and education gained so much that I didn't care that I wasn't getting paid to work, and work hard - so please don't judge me because you really don't know the kind of person I am.
