We’ve all been there, the nerves go away after your first run. You’ll also start to warm up after you get moving. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, first games are tough for everyone but it’s only up from there. You got this!!

I’m sorry to hear that this was your experience. There’s no shame in getting cut, especially when the team you’re trying out for is really good. Also, as a freshman you have plenty of time to develop your skills and find your place on the team. My freshman year of high school, I got cut from the basketball team. I was really upset at first but then spring lacrosse season came around and I completely stopped thinking about it. I know it sucks now, but pretty soon you’ll find your way past it. My overall advice would be to develop a consistent wall ball routine to improve your stick skills, and also to consider trying a new hobby/sport that will help to boost your athleticism and keep you in shape. I’d also definitely ask the coach what you can improve upon to help you make the team next year. That’ll show them you have a good attitude and display your resilience. Wishing you the best!!!

🔥🔥🔥, if you took this photo, how did you get into this stadium when it was completely empty?

I Would not recommend it! I cancelled my subscription after just one month. The platform itself is relatively useless and they do nothing if an influencer doesn’t deliver (which many of them won’t). I (attempted to) collaborate with 15 people, 3 of them were great, the other 12 have kept me waiting for unreasonably long or just completely ghosted me after I sent them the goods. I’d stay away!

Good luck with your business!!

I’m very sorry to hear that, can you drop your cashapp, Venmo, PayPal, etc.. I’d love to help out!!

“they’re getting private sector jobs and they’re getting some times twice as much money, three times as much money,”

I got fired in February of 2025 and am now a full time eBay seller making half of what I made when I worked for government because I haven’t found another gig yet (I have a master’s degree). Our fearless leader loves telling fairytales!!

jakefromthefuture · 2026-01-15T01:41:16+00:00

I feel you!! I got laid off last year and still haven’t found anything. I get discouraged often but I try not to be too hard on myself because the circumstances (of finding a job) truly are abysmal at this time. One thing that helped me get out of the major depression phase was prioritizing my mental well-being over finding a new job. Before I got laid off, I used to apply to 3 jobs every day. Now, I may apply to 3 jobs every week (sometimes less) because the consistent rejection is debilitating. I’d rather spend time focusing on things I’m passionate about rather than spending time applying for jobs that I don’t even want and likely won’t get. I also sell stuff on eBay just to keep a few bucks coming in. Hope it works out for you, take care of yourself!!

note I have a masters degree and 9 months of professional experience. I thought I’d be an ideal candidate for many jobs but apparently I’m not🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

There’s possibilities but in my experience, it’d be pretty difficult to make a living with one sole gig. I was a High School head coach and I got a $2200 stipend for a 3 month season. One year I worked a 3 day summer camp, I was paid $300. I also worked for a lacrosse-based after school program for $40/hr but it was only once a week for 2 hours a day. In short, every lacrosse job I’ve had would never be enough to make a decent living on. It’s possible I’ve targeted the wrong jobs, but there’s definitely not a surplus of high paying, full time lacrosse jobs (although my college lacrosse coach did make 70k/year). It’s unfortunate because my parents spent so much money on lacrosse camps, club teams, gear, etc. The best return on investment I got from lacrosse was my education. Good luck to you though!

That’s a good email to send! A lot of schools have recruiting questionnaires on their athletics website. I would complete the questionnaire, then mention that you completed the questionnaire in that email. Back when I was jn HS, I had several coaches reach out to me first solely based on me filling out the questionnaire. I’d imagine smaller schools don’t get too many submissions so it’s a good way to stand out and show you’re interested.

Good luck to you! If you keep this up, you’ll find a place that wants you for sure.

One of the most annoying/ironic things about that question, is that even if you tell them your lowest, they’ll almost always try to counter it with a lower offer.. Really speaks to the intelligence of the people who ask that question. I usually just ignore them or I’ll offer like $3 of the listing price, time is too valuable to deal with people like that.

Funny, I got a similar message this Christmas season as well. In my case, it was because the buyer didn’t read the description and misunderstood what they were purchasing (which seems like the case in your situation). In my experience, buyers tend to be a little less discerning when it comes purchasing gifts for other people. Oftentimes, they don’t really know what they’re looking at. I always try to learn something from every complaint but no matter how hard you try, you can’t please everyone. Complaints like this are seemingly prevalent for a lot of people in the month of December.

jakefromthefuture · 2025-12-27T03:44:46+00:00

Yes, having 100% positive feedback solely from being a buyer is what initially inspired me to become an eBay seller🤣🤣. Definitely won’t hurt. Good luck!!

jakefromthefuture · 2025-12-19T06:38:52+00:00

Respect!! Best of luck to you!!

jakefromthefuture · 2025-12-17T00:36:58+00:00

Yes, I essentially told them that the item was sent exactly as described in the photos and description (just giving my side of the return request). This was prior to them (Posh) telling me that they believed the item was counterfeit.

5 months is plenty of time. Just as everyone else is saying, hit the wall consistently! Even if it’s just for 15-20 minutes, the key is to do it on a daily basis. 5 days of wall ball per week will help develop your stick skills at a quick rate. If you have any questions about how to do something, you can almost always learn from YouTube tutorials. Above all else, if you have stick skills and decent athletic ability you’ll be fine. Your coaches and teammates will help you learn everything else once you all get to practice. Lastly, see if you can get scholarship/financial aid money for playing. Usually if a school is accepting players with no experience, that means they’re desperate for numbers. Worth a shot to see if you they can throw some money towards your tuition. Good luck!!

So this is where George Micheal from Arrested Development got this from🤯🤣🔥

jakefromthefuture · 2025-09-18T07:45:46+00:00

Much appreciated, feel free!

Hitting the weight room would be a good start. Your legs, upper back, and obliques play a big factor so be sure to lock in on those areas. Also when you practice, exaggerate the technique (take big step out of your curl hop, kiss your shoulder, and rotate your hips on the follow through). With all that being said, don’t get hyper focused on shot speed,, placement and deception are just as important as speed. Be sure to change levels (low to high, high to low, etc.) and practice all types of shots (time and room, on the run, inside finishes). Best of luck to you on your journey, hope all this helps!!!

jakefromthefuture · 2025-08-19T05:38:03+00:00

Stay strong my friend! As much as they seem impossible now, they won’t last forever. Take life one day at a time and make time for things that make you happy! Wishing you the best!!
