Site Rating 4 Stars The Guest Services internship for the Houston Astros was a blast. I had an amazing time working with the guest service staff and meeting new people. My supervisors were fun but tough. They taught me a lot about time management, being professional, and did not just give me a grade. The reason I must give them 4 stars instead of 5 is because my supervisor would get frustrated sometimes and would be hard to work with, but Overall it was a great internship.
