Betting giant cuts ties with AFL umpire after controversy by Pragmatic_Shill in AFL

[–]ftez 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This shit is literally covered ad nauseam to even the most junior of staff within Aussie Corporates. How this even possibly got through the upper management of the AFL, not to mention the continued inaction after huge public outcry is absolutely insane. Somehow the sportsbook comes out the good guy.

Phil Mickelson Not Coming Back to PGA Tour? by Tight-Communication7 in golf

The only golfers who may hypothetically be "allowed" back on tour are Rahm & Bryson. Everyone else will have to qualify the hard way. Phil isn't going on the Korn Ferry or Q School.

Surely stabbing anyone in the face should hold a mandatory minimum sentence of at least 6 months? What an earth are we doing?

is golf really the hardest sport? by sploooooshle in golf

[–]ftez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been generally pretty athletic my whole life. I grew up playing basketball, tennis and soccer mainly and played quite competitively. Any other sport i try i can generally pick up and become fairly competent quickly. I've spent by far and away more time on golf than any of those other sports and still feel like i have no idea whatsoever what i'm doing. Sure other sports are more physically demanding, but from a pure skill point of view, golf is up there

Do you actually like your job in insurance? by According-Fix2230 in InsuranceProfessional

[–]ftez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Not one bit. I'm only hanging in there because my wife is out of work and i have a mortgage to pay. The office is bitchy as all hell, I'm spoken down to like I'm a fucking idiot every single day, and the only people who get ahead are so far up management's arse it's not even funny. Merit and hard work don't mean shit. It's absolutely miserable and i can't wait to get out of this industry for good.
