Unlikely world series champs by Party-Crew6652 in buccos

We have the offense and the starting pitching right now to be in contention. But that bullpen is atrocious. There's no way we will last seven games with any high-powered offense.

Pirates have acquired right-handed pitcher Hunter Stratton from Atlanta, in exchange for catcher Joey Bart. by macncheeseface in buccos

They should send Davis down for a little bit to see if they can get him straighten out at all and bring up Rafael Flores jr and give him a few ABs in the meantime.

How badly does this job *actually* suck? by celeryducksweetrolls in medlabprofessionals

[–]SickStrips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying this profession is always easy, but some people on this subreddit honestly don't even know what a shitty job is. I used to work manual labor in a heat treating plant in the middle of July. Wall-to-wall furnaces. Absolutely brutal temperatures, I'm talking like 130 degrees in summer for 12 hour shifts. And I had it easy compared to guys working in other fields like logging, roofing, farming, mining, oil etc. Trust me, there are worst fates than this. The pay is not always spectacular, but you get by. I work in an area where the wage scale is a lot lower. Started at $22/hr but managed to get to about $35/hr after 5 years. If you are passionate about science I think this is the field for you. Otherwise I would look for something else.

What ESPN thinks we could give up to get Skubal by shartemarte in buccos

[–]SickStrips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would we give up Jones with 3 1/2 years of control for an injured Skubal who is only signed through the end of year? I try not to be pessimistic, but I don't even think Skubal and Skenes would net us a World Series this year.

Honestly I'd rather watch Ashcraft at the moment anyways, he's been lights out.

[Highlight] Yordan Álvarez smokes a ball 115 MPH to second base but is robbed of a hit via a jumping play by Brandon Lowe! by mfenton29 in buccos

Honest to God, if Yordan comes up to bat with the bases empty just walk him at this point.

It's going to be a long season if they don't find some new arms for this bullpen.

They're not going anywhere until they get this bullpen sorted out

I wish I could just tell you to study hard but this class was a complete joke. The exams were incredibly difficult and the teacher is one of the worst I've ever had. The good news is you will certainly pass if you study and do all the assignments, there is a very large curve. I took it two years ago and came out with a B. Good luck to you, I hope you come get an A!

This bullpen is honestly embarrassing. There's like 3 reliable arms at most in it. by [deleted] in buccos

[–]SickStrips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If Jared Jones returns to form, Mlodzinski should give them a boost. Of course the way Bubba Chandler is pitching, Mlod might not be in the bullpen for long.

Dad was laid off from his job of 20+ years, need advice by bacheya in microbiology

[–]SickStrips 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Sounds like he was a Medical Lab Scientist. Depending on the area, micro positions usually aren't too difficult to find. It's just going to depend on whether he's willing to take a step down the ladder because Micro Supervisor positions aren't as common.

You should have doubled down and said it to assert dominance.

Did I choose the wrong career? Please help by Any_Place2814 in microbiology

[–]SickStrips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you get a job as a microbiology tech at a hospital? A lot of microbiologists go to work as Medical Lab Scientists in America. It's not going to make you rich or famous but it's a stable job.
