That most of us have stories of more freedom as kids makes it so weird to me that this is happening.

Come on, we all know that the dried fruit ranking goes:
1. Mangoes
2. Apricots
3. Pears (I've never actually had a dried one, but fuck it, pears are delicious)
4. Raisins (but never in cookies. HOW DARE YOU LIE TO ME AND PRETEND TO BE A CHOCOLATE CHIP YOU STUPID RAISIN)
5. Bananas
6. Pineapples
7. Apple Rings, because they…
Obama sucks Bush sucked most of our representatives and senators suck. Until campaigns aren't won and lost by money contributed and campaign spending our entire government will continue to suck.
It's not even a matter of, "students can take part-time or work-study jobs if they choose, an option that's simply not realistic for athletes during their seasons", it's a matter that they aren't even allowed to get any job during any part of their collegiate career that earns more than $2,000 per semester.
Ha! And there's no winning, because if the staff understand what plain means, you look like you're insulting them.
Quite honestly, GM makes the Feds look positively efficient by comparison.
At this HUGE company, the "manager" you were speaking to was probably someone like me - not really a manager, but a very competent rep who got slightly more pay, no more privileges (no flex time, same adherence requirements, etc), but got to take about 500% more shit.
It still IS all kinds of terrible. I haven't even begun with the Tales of Terrible of working there - but being forced to take it while customers called us "bitch," "cunt," "whore," and in one office, even "n****r" was company policy across the board.
The summer after I graduated from high school, I worked in the restaurant of a Marriott hotel. A lot of the time there would be business men staying at the hotel for weeks at a time, and they would spend quite a bit of time in the hotel bar. They were generally nice and tipped well, so we didn't really mind that they…
This is going to be a very interesting off-season. If LeBron does go to a 3rd team, I wonder how people will treat his legacy, especially if he only wins another championship or two. Key word is "only".
Tim Duncan has been my favorite player since I got back into the NBA in 2003. I never understood why people thought he was boring. I get why they thought the *Spurs* were boring — I watched every minute of that 2005 series against Detroit, for example, and it was just brutal — but Duncan himself has always clearly…
Exhibit A - The Seattle Mariners.
I hear you there boss!!! I was far from a varsity athlete at the SEC school I went to. (If I had played, I would have been the last singles tennis player, without a scholarship, on some directional school somewhere...so fuck that.
I hate how a lot of people are going to rail on UNC like it's the only school that does this. I went to Penn State, whose alumni pride themselves on "academics first", but I had players in my classes, and most of them weren't seen for weeks, especially the better ones.
The time has come for NCAA coaches to be "amateurs", too. Why professionalize any part of college sports? Tell dadgum Roy he's got to be a "faculty-coach" with a regular teaching/research course load in order to be a coach, and see what happens. Oh, and he'll be paid based on his teaching and research, but not…
Seth MacFarlane sucks.
I would totally support legislature making it completely legal for women to knee a guy in the balls when they pull this shit. Who's with me?
As a man, I want to start a new gender just so that I don't have to be associated with assholes like that. I don't think that I've had a single friend that is a woman who doesn't have a story like that or worse.
