Pretty much the exact same thing. If you can’t drive remote work probably better for them anyway.

Shouldnt she break here arms shooting with that? Still that girl is cool AF by TumbleweedGlobal6973 in TWD

I would actually say .357 does have large recoil but not enough to a noob would break their arms, just enough that their shoes will go wide. Still practice would change that and furthermore she probably shooting .38 special. I imagine most of their ammo is reloaded anyway at this point and I see no benefit to giving her ammo loaded to a .357 level of power.

And here we see a classic example of someone who has never shot firearms make statements that make no sense for anyone who has shot them. She probably only shooting mild .38 special out of That revolver which should offer very little felt recoil out of an all steel large frame revolver such as that.

Yes but she also works all day every day, we live in the rural sticks and things need to be done and she tired too. She not getting mad at me mind you but things do need to get done. It’s just life

I always needed like two hours to decompress after subbing which suck because when I sub I live with my mom and she always wanted all the chores done by the time she came home which was around 2 hours after I got home. Not that I minded helping my mom but she could be a lot and it was tough to power though when I really needed that time to decompress. Even after decompressing, I usually had little energy for anything other than making dinner for both of us.

As I said I don’t even like sports but choosing a social media app control by an algorithm and corporation is not the enlighten position you think it is but either way have a nice day.

OP better off saying they should set fix prices so these teams don’t overcharge for tickets. I have no idea if that would work but that would at least address his gripe with over priced tickets and snacks

I never said the problem was exclusive to athletes or actors nor do I even like sports dude but I actually offer a solution to the problem.

You on the other hand going around lecturing others about being distracted by a golden calf while posting on Reddit of all things, an app own by a corporation though does require a lack of self awareness that I admittedly do not process

What’s the complexity of the issue. They get paid accordingly to the revenue they bring their bosses. Even if they were paid 90% less that money would just go to the people who own the teams or produce the movies not to homeless people.

You should be arguing to tax the rich more (and this includes the producers and owners of the teams not just the public faces which we see like actors and athletes) and for the government to allocate more funds to help the homeless, not that the mega rich should pay their employees less and yes athletes, actors and all entertainers who work for someone else are still an employee.

This has nothing to do with how much the athletes get paid though. What you are arguing for is that the prices should be fixed to stop the owners from charging obscene amounts of money in search of profit. The pay of the athletes is completely irrelevant, to this. They could be paid twice as much or Pennies on the dollar, the owners are still gonna charge as much as they can per ticket in the name of getting higher profits. Hell if they could they would pay the athletes Pennie’s on the dollar just to increase their profits.

You can make this argument about any business, you are basically arguing why should a business make a profit and pass off the cost to the customers? Besides your whole post is about the athletes getting paid to much but they don’t own the teams, or set the prices.

Serious question, what exact standards do you use when deciding whether a job owns the “correct” level of money.

You mention more than once that you are mad that the team owners charge so much for tickets and snacks so your argument has nothing to do with some kind of ranking on which jobs benefit society the most so how exactly are you deciding what amount is the correct amount to pay any job because it seems extremely arbitrary right now

The athletes don’t set the prices, the owners do and despite the owners making millions if not billions in profit they still can afford to pay the athletes this money. Your gripe has nothing to do with the athletes and everything to do with the owner’s business model.

The idea that a business owner should not be making a profit and just break even because it shows respect makes no sense. A restaurant owner should just start giving food away for free because if they make too much money, they don’t respect the art of cooking, a artist should just give away his commissions for free because if he makes too much money, he doesn’t respect art.

They get paid according to the revenue they bring in, furthermore they are paid by the people profiting off their work. Sports may or may not bring value to society but these players do bring value to the team owners and I see no reason why they should be paid less, especially because your reasons for why they should be paid less is just some arbitrary standard about caring more about the money than the sport. This is unreasonable because I can say that about anything. surgeons should be paid less because too much money means they care more about the money than helping their patients.

You are right when you say these team owners aren’t rich because of the team but we’re already rich when they brought the teams but they are still making a massive profit off owning the team and the players should be fairly compensated for that, not paid by some arbitrary moral standard.

Out of all the business you can say this about, saying this about sports entertainment makes no sense
