Meet Toronto Blue Jays’ pitcher Anthony Bass. Anthony is at the moment in the center of a $3 million deal, however that apparently doesn’t enable him to get his pregnant spouse some assist whereas she travels with their two young children. Check out this current put up Bass placed on Twitter knowingly and of his personal free will.
Pretty tone deaf, contemplating how down-sized flight attendants and airline employees have been since the pandemic, and that airline cleansing crews, which can or could not have the likelihood to scrub your aircraft earlier than you board, could make as little as $24,000 per yr.
So enable me to take a second to sympathize with Bass’ spouse. I’ve made a cross-country journey with two young children (three and 18 months at the time), and doing it alone utterly sucks. Hats off to all the single dad and mom on the market. Kids this age make messes as simply as they breathe, in some way managing to throw issues round that you just weren’t even conscious of them possessing. They appeal to chaos in all its varieties. And I even lower Bass a little bit slack on this one. We all take to Twitter to vent sometimes, justified or not. I’ve executed it. You’ve executed it. All it takes for us to chill down is a couple of sympathetic replies, folks telling you that they agree that what occurred to you was the biggest injustice in the world, after which it’s over.
But right here’s the place Bass, who has “Christian” proper up prime of his Twitter bio, went manner over the line:
So Bass is out right here attempting to get somebody who undoubtedly makes so much much less cash than he does for a a lot extra disturbing job, disciplined at greatest and fired at worst. All as a result of he doesn’t assume his spouse ought to have to scrub up after his youngsters. And he simply retains doubling down and tweeting by it.
A standard individual would see that an enormous proportion of individuals have been telling him he was flawed, and stand down. But not Anthony Bass! He’s out right here thanking the (only a few) individuals who supported him and attempting to get an over-worked flight attendant in hassle.
This is the place I let you know that, for all Anthony’s robust opinions on what flight attendants ought to and shouldn’t do, he sucks at his job much more. Bass’ ERA is at the moment 7.11, and his WAR is -0.2. So he ought to positively be capturing his mouth off about how effectively another person does their job. And that’s when Twitter consumer @e_munson stepped up and have become the hero we would have liked:
Only a Mets fan might clap back with this quantity of sheer darkness. God Bless New York.
