A photo day? 

That used to be the norm.....

Yep. I actually laughed when I read through the replies and saw that she was just talking about a photo opp. Sad that folks have been conditioned to think that's something truly special.

Trout isn’t available so he’ll be played by a Japanese guy.

The Angels probably should have stayed in Lake Elsinore. The Quakes venue was nice but losing it to the Dodgers and getting stuck in San Bernadino sucks. 

The park is nice in Berdoo, I know because I live close by.  Be tolerant, please.

still can’t understand why someone would have season tickets to this current team, or even next year, especially now that Ohtani is cross town.

Imagine going into sales and not being able to take a rejection from a potential buyer?

Being rejected is one thing.  Having to take shit in the process is another.

Apparently, empathy is something you don't understand.

Is that really taking shit though? Seemed like a pretty tame response, especially compared to the expletive-laden tirades you get when cold calling

[Blarg]

I never give expletive-laden responses to cold calls. I do, sometimes, ask completely off the subject questions to derail their scripts. I figure the longer I keep them on the line the fewer annoying calls they can make to other people. Paying it forward.

Ghost of Bob Starr’s response was pretty tame. They probably just smiled, shook their head, and responded with some generic response.

If someone harasses or takes out their frustration on the sales rep, I can see why that would suck for the sales rep.

 

[Blarg]

The funniest one was a cold call that I asked not to call again and after I hung up he called again. So after I hung up again and he called back a third time I decided to try the number. He picked up. Game on. I kept calling his number and he was begging for me to stop. Since I had nothing else to do, driving out to spring training, he got an hour of phone calls.

Empathy is valuing other people's lives, even if it is random strangers you will never meet. Let me help you with visuals.

You’re the one who said I have no empathy because I didn’t see anything wrong with Ghost of Bob Starr’s email to the sales rep.

Have I ever personally attacked you?

He used the term annoy. For a journalism major you seem to have a poor understanding of words.
