  • It’s an email account, not social media so I think this is a ridiculous take. It’s inherently private and only shared with people you explicitly send it to, such as family.

    For all you know they may not turn out to keep being your daughter forever. It’s kind of a gross overstepping of parental boundaries

    Such a shoehorned, irrelevant point that won’t apply to 99% of the population. This sounds like a you problem that you’re projecting onto others, and it’s honestly rude to say that it’s a gross overstepping of parental boundaries.

    If people don’t watch, then there’s fundamentally no money to be given to the players. If you want money to be given to the player, you need to watch.

    That’s how it works for women’s sports, and that’s how it works for men’s sports as well.

    Pay for all athletes is dictated by the viewership they bring in, not their performance. WNBA players actually make disproportionately more relative to viewership.

    You honestly talk like someone who’s never watched a sport in their life.

    tbf, Caitlin Clark is the only WNBA player that’s profitable, and she’s kinda limited salary wise by the fact that the women’s league in general is not profitable and heavily subsidised by the NBA.

    People will bitch about how the men’s league gets paid so much in comparison, then proceed to not watch the women’s league…

    If you want it to make money YOU need to support it 🫵











  • we think you’d be best with a bigger team with a better support network

    Probably dodged a bullet anyway since there’s only 3 technicians and they’re putting a lot of responsibility for the shit payment they’re handing out.

    That really seems to answer the question, and I don’t think you need to assume any discrimination from them.

    They’re a small team, they need someone to come in and hit the ground running. They feel like you’d need training/support despite your technical knowledge.

    Don’t get hung up on job rejections, just move onto the next. It’s a numbers game.
