ESPNo thank you

I work in a tennis pro shop.

I like it. Generally.

You know what I don’t like though? Watching ESPN allll freaking day.

Seriously. If I have to watch ANY more male-focused advertising, I’m going to change the channel to WE (Women Entertainment Network) and let everyone be graced with Nuva Ring and Tampax commercials. We’ll see how much everyone likes that.

I actually might not do that.

Cause I might get fired.

I’ve thought about it though…

Actually, in case you all wanted to know, I’m writing this at work. I just looked up and was subjected to yet another Axe commercial; some girl ripping off some guy’s clothes. Typical. Since when did that ever happen? My brother’s worn Axe before and I think I’ve only seen girls run away from him.

Now I’m watching a segment on Top 10 greatest touchdown dances. As you might have guessed, it’s very intellectually stimulating. I’m pretty sure I just watched a 400 lb man use an invisible lasso to reel in a player half his size. My brain is rotting…
*Fast forward to like 22 seconds.

See what I mean?

I’ve made failed attempts to sneak the national news on but someone always has to ruin my life and be like “Hey I think the game’s on blah blah channel” and I’m like “hey I think the game’s on channel Get-Out-Of-My-Pro-Shop, you idiot.”

…actually I don’t say that.

but it makes me feel rebellious and cool to pretend I do.

Technically I have no right to care that people want to watch ESPN in a pro shop. Actually, it makes a lot of sense that people do watch ESPN in a pro shop, but I just need to release my frustrations. Ya know?

’nuff said.
