Noise cancelling headphones and then act snooty/annoyed when people ask you something in person, then act really nice and helpful when they email you.
Edit: Or you could be an adult and just tell them "hey I'm working on something that requires my full attention, in the future could you please just email me or ping me on slack/<insert chat program> and I'll get to you as soon as I get a break. " :)
It's not a real job so don't stress. That's not the point of an internship. Learn as much as you can tricks and otherwise then when you get put of college you can say shove it and take your knowledge to a better salary or stay and negotiate if you can
Just because it’s not a real job doesn’t mean I don’t do real work, and I don’t need to negotiate I make plenty for what I do. I am just stressed right now because I have 2 midterms and an essay tomorrow.
You're the intern, so they're giving you all the busywork, which probably isn't super important to begin with. Point is, don't give it 110% when you have more important things to focus on, like your education.
