Also, I'd say to not begrudge being a rookie. Everybody has to start at the bottom of the totem pole and wage scale. So, don't feel like you're being taken advantage of by working for free. You're not because you're gaining something very valuable to you…experience.
Finally, since you're going to work for decades anyways, you might as well find something that you're passionate about. It's often been quoted that you should 'find something you love to do, and you'll never work a day in your life'; well, this is partially true, you should find work you enjoy, but you have to find something that pays decently as well. Who knows, maybe like A.J. Smith of the Chargers, you'll find something that will ultimately pay you millions for what you would do for free.
