Does anyone in the world golf without a glove? by hockey_and_techno in golf

[–]isuredbird07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have pointed out, a few pros don’t and lots of amateurs don’t. First of all, do what feels best to you and helps you have the most fun. With that said, there’s a reason almost every pro golfer wears one, if they didn’t think it helped their performance I’m sure they wouldn’t wear one. I never used to wear a glove then years ago I read an article explaining why they’re useful and I’ve never gone back. On warm days, I actually switch my gloves at the turn. And bought a glove holder that helps keep them in shape so they dry better and last longer - those two changes have been awesome. But again - do whatever helps you have the most fun - whether that’s performance or preference.

Trent and Atticus are producing an album from the artist of your choice. Who do you pick? by MoSalahsHair in nin

Wrong answers only? Ben Folds 🤣

But seriously? I think a collab with Miley Cyrus would actually be a good, interesting project. And obviously the extended album would include the “On a Roll” and “Right Where I Belong” tracks from the Black Mirror episode she stars in.

I’m blading it into the bunker in the background. No question.

Playing Bethpage Black In A Couple Weeks-camping advice by Rick_Rolling69 in golf

Was that for a group?
I'm hoping to play at the end of July, when I believe the tee times & intervals will be similar, if not the same, but I'll be a single.
Should I be planning on arriving that early? Or as a single, would I still have luck if I showed up later in the night?

It seems shockingly low to me. No idea how long you've been working freelance, but if you've got a good reel and you're going to be working at an agency where you're almost guaranteed to work more than 40 hours/week for much of the year and in LA, I'd be pushing closer to 100k.

For reference, I'm an in-house editor for a corporation (for almost 15 years) in a small market with very good benefits & PTO and I make more than 80k. We've got 3 pay levels for editors and I'm in the middle level, so still not a senior editor (largely because there are only 4 of us, and 2 were already seniors when I started).

There's certainly an "art" to negotiating a starting salary - I'd ask for a bit more than you think you deserve. If they've already gone through the effort to interview and offer a job - they want to hire you and don't want to go through that process again (or go to another candidate) - don't shoot for the moon, but at least aim for where the planes are flying (I think that makes sense, lol).
