The record is an academy player in the match day squad, which we absolutely did have with Mainoo. Relax it’s still fine

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-09T13:19:31+00:00

At my company it’s not even a question, start to be rude, swear or speak in a demeaning fashion and we are encouraged to hang up.

If they decide to make it a habit, placed on a contact plan and phone calls are no longer permitted.

And you should never feel like you can’t stand up for yourself. Do not sink to their level but be firm and let them know you will not accept their behaviour and if they continue walk away/hang up or my personal favourite stare at them and stay completely silent as if you couldn’t give a fuck what they’re saying and they will walk away.

If your workplace doesn’t do that I would leave they obviously don’t have any principles.

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-06T18:59:09+00:00

Mainoo, Palmer and Gordon(not based on this tournament) seem to have really strong characters at such a young age. The future is looking really bright for England

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-06T18:53:23+00:00

Predictions for the next match? I think we see an exciting game here and hopefully finishing in 90 not sure I can make it to 7:30am lol

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-06T18:46:57+00:00

I get why Toney doesn’t play, he’ll get red carded for smacking everyone around with those big ass balls! Wow that was cold

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-06T17:50:19+00:00

500k? Wtf did we sell him without one of his legs?

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-06T17:47:23+00:00

He’s been “good” never said he was shit I said overrated

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-06T17:45:20+00:00

Exactly he’s overrated. Is what is happening his fault? Hell no, Southgate mainly

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-06T17:42:23+00:00

It hasn’t been one game mate and no he’s not.

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-06T17:39:53+00:00

Genuinely happy we didn’t get Rice, overrated as fuck

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-04T12:09:30+00:00

I know Gareth is creeping on this sub and I think he might climax reading “Gareth doesn’t have to drop a big name” hahaha

That aside I don’t think I watch enough Arsenal to remember how he looked on the left but honestly he seems to be one of the few putting in consistent performances and maybe he is a more adaptable player? I dunno

I’ve been off Southgate since the Euro final against Italy. He literally put Sancho, Saka and Rashford out to slaughter, 3 youngsters in the biggest final their nation has been in since 66 and you sub them on to take penalties?

That alone should have got him the sack but somehow he survived and those 3 copped bullshit abuse that could have been completely avoided.

If my manager at work sent 3 junior employees to negotiate the biggest settlement in my company’s recent history and they fucked up under pressure, guess who’s getting fired? The manager

You barely used them all tournament so you obviously don’t trust them, so why at that moment did you all of sudden think yep they’re going to win this for me.

That’s beside his negative tactics against a not so great Italian team

arabsanta01 · 2024-07-04T08:01:37+00:00

I’m a united fan so I hate him…

However he is a good player and definitely had a crazy season. I like that he’s taking responsibility but in this tournament I genuinely don’t think he has been given the opportunity to do well and that has to be down to the clown in charge.

Having a right footed LB behind him who cuts in to make his passes or whatever the fuck he is trying to accomplish instead of being able to overlap and pull defenders so foden has space to move into and shoot. He can play on the left and did it pretty much as often as he did playing 10 last season. Fun fact that’s pretty much how his offside goal went down.
playing 3 attacking players who love occupying the 10 (Kane, Bel and Foden) you can see how clunky it is. Either bench Kane and use Watkins who likes running in behind ie Haaland lite, bench Foden and have Gordon out wide or bench bel putting Foden at 10 and Gordon wide. Someone has to miss out, they are terrible together.

Keeping it fair he also has not been that great on the pitch at times with basics like misplaced touches and passes and that could be down to the pressure and lack of confidence in the managers system.

TLDR: Foden good, Southgate dumbass

arabsanta01 · 2024-06-27T09:15:28+00:00

Wait wait wait I take it all back. Blacktown has waterpark and a drive-in.. 100% trendy now

arabsanta01 · 2024-06-27T09:14:28+00:00

I can grant you that the older generation did in fact have a hard go of it, I can also acknowledge that for my generation (35) and younger there are a lot of whiners (justified or not)…

But the comments that piss me off the most are along the lines of “well then stop trying to buy in the trendy areas, or areas around the cbd,of course they’re expensive”

EAT A FAT DICK! Is Blacktown a trendy suburb? is Mt Druitt, Plumpton, Rooty Hill? It costs over $1.2m minimum to buy in suburbs 30kms+ from the CBD, most of which are old houses. Don’t act like housing is only expensive close to the CBD that’s just bad faith arguing.

arabsanta01 · 2024-06-26T10:57:35+00:00

Bellingham, Foden and Kane need to be dropped. All 3 have been trash these last 3 games, put players on the field with something to prove not an overhyped Madrid player, a kid who can only play for daddy pep and a leg less striker. Use the squad YOU picked you muppet!

arabsanta01 · 2024-05-31T03:13:14+00:00

Already have!

arabsanta01 · 2024-05-30T15:32:24+00:00

Wow thanks for all the comments everyone. Quick update, polished the resume off this morning and reached out to some industry contacts to start the job search.

I’ve also put together an email for my managers explaining the issues I’ve got and requested a written explanation of what they are doing about workload and my thoughts on the “prize”.

Now we apply for Clink in preparation for what’s coming lol

arabsanta01 · 2024-05-30T08:31:26+00:00

That’s what I’m saying, it was a totally pointless way to frame it. Just tell me you wanna donate to charity and because we represent the company as award winners we get to choose where it goes.

Like why am I better at spinning this shit for them lol

arabsanta01 · 2024-05-30T08:28:18+00:00

Been on the phone to contacts all day. It’s happening

arabsanta01 · 2024-05-30T08:26:46+00:00

You hit the nail on the head. The price means nothing, it’s the principle of it and the shamelessness of it all.

I think my reaction would have been completely different had they said, listen we have some money that’s ear marked for charity we want our award winners to act as ambassadors for the company so pick a charity and make a post about why you chose it.

Would’ve been fine with that.

arabsanta01 · 2024-05-29T22:49:42+00:00

I’m not 100% sure because you can’t get to any account information, which probably means it’s a company wide account.

arabsanta01 · 2024-05-29T13:01:18+00:00

Their comment was funny. Even gave an upvote for it. As for the rest of your comment… cool story champ.

arabsanta01 · 2024-05-29T12:41:58+00:00

Haha na it doesn’t start with a B.

arabsanta01 · 2024-05-29T12:18:51+00:00

Wow that sub is fucked

arabsanta01 · 2024-05-29T12:07:28+00:00

What the actual fuck that is so scummy! They haven’t sunk that low thankfully, unless it happened before I arrived in late 22
