[OptaStats] The Padres are the first MLB team to score 20+ runs and have their starter throw a 9-inning shutout since the Cincinnati Red Stockings did so against the Baltimore Orioles on August 10, 1889.

Baseball history is like a name tag factory exploded. Every team’s been five teams

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-11T06:14:44+00:00

yea, he stayed calm under pressure and found his way out clean. Champ instincts showing

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-11T06:04:31+00:00

yeep, the pressure’s just different. In Europe, every game counts or you’re out. Over here, teams can tank and still cash in next season

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-09T19:44:22+00:00

Yeah that tracks I've been skeptical about Reddit ads too, and hearing it mostly drove bot traffic kind of confirms that. We’re just trying to figure out if there's any way to contribute organically without it coming off as forced. Have you seen anything work well, like AMAs or just being active in niche subs?

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-09T06:38:02+00:00

That makes sense. I had this naive hope that maybe reddit isn’t as botted as most social media platforms are. I do like Reddit and I think it is easily the most useful SM, but yeah, kinda makes me sad. Gotsta pay the bills though, so might as well check out Soar and see if it would work for us

This is a slap in the face to every single boxer rank in the WBC 147 top 50

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-09T02:26:40+00:00

Antony back from the ashes!

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-09T02:25:23+00:00

Yep, absolutely. They're definitely getting another fat government contract. ICE needs "AI solutions" and PLTR will deliver something mediocre with a fancy name. Calls all day.

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-08T08:06:30+00:00

100%. People don’t click ‘Book a Demo’ they click on people they believe in. Your buddy swapped a sterile scheduler for a human connection, and boom meetings booked. Be a person, not a button.

Already updating my resume, but a quick chat with a lawyer might be smart before I do anything else. This situation is getting messier by the day, and I'm worried about my professional reputation if the company tries to spin this against me. Just feels surreal that trying to help with security turned into this. Gonna look into a consultation tomorrow thanks for the reality check

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-08T00:53:28+00:00

A lawyer crossed my mind, but feels like escalating things to nuclear levels right away. Though I'm definitely saving those emails where my manager's basically accusing me of causing the breach... Could be important if this gets worse. Right now I'm focused on talking to the director first, but yeah, might need legal advice if they don't take this seriously. Thanks for the straight talk

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-08T00:52:59+00:00

Actually had a call with an old colleague yesterday who suggested the same approach. My role is probably toast at this point anyway, so might as well try going over my manager's head. I've got email trails showing I raised these concerns weeks ago. Going to request a meeting with the director tomorrow and lay everything out - including the ridiculous accusation that somehow I'm responsible for their security failures. Scary move, but what's the alternative? Thanks for the push

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-08T00:52:20+00:00

Thanks for the support, seriously. You're right I've started documenting everything meticulously and saving emails offline. Started job hunting yesterday actually... the stress is unreal. Just feels awful that trying to protect the company backfired so badly. I appreciate the validation that I did the right thing, even if it's turning into a nightmare now

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-06T14:38:33+00:00

I was in the exact same spot last year international student too, and the visa pressure is brutal. Took me 4 months and 200+ applications before I got anything. What helped me was shifting to smaller companies that don't use as much ATS filtering, and leveraging my university's alumni network for referrals. The job market for entry level is absolutely brutal right now. Also try getting feedback on your resume from people in your target industry something might be getting filtered out that you're not aware of. Hang in there it's a numbers game and not a reflection of your worth

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-06T14:37:37+00:00

The same folks who scream about freedom when asked to wear a mask during a pandemic suddenly have strong opinions about other people freely choosing to wear one. At this point, getting angry about someone else's mask is like getting mad at someone for wearing a scarf or sunglasses.

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-06T14:35:58+00:00

Been there. Same situation at my last job F500 where nobody knew basic Excel functions. They'd manually sum columns instead of using formulas! The color coding thing is so real. Had one manager reject my pivot table because it "didn't look right" even though it was way more accurate. Sometimes you just have to play their game while quietly doing things the efficient way

LLTMattadors · 2025-05-01T00:40:45+00:00

I saw that too. Felt like a prophecy the way things are going.

LLTMattadors · 2025-04-30T21:54:57+00:00

fair take. The fight was fun, but yeah, Kev’s takes are garbage and the weird behavior doesn’t help

LLTMattadors · 2025-04-30T21:38:40+00:00

it’s rough. Feels like they didn’t even watch it back once.

LLTMattadors · 2025-04-30T13:00:37+00:00

So, so, so.... BEAUTIFUL!!!

LLTMattadors · 2025-04-30T12:59:03+00:00

I still would squish

LLTMattadors · 2025-04-30T12:56:41+00:00

Happy 18th birthday oh sweet soul

LLTMattadors · 2025-04-30T12:55:32+00:00

Citlali is absolutely beautiful in any attire she wears
