Haha!! In my adult league if the margin is 5 you can keep scoring, they just don’t add the goals. And if you’re the losing team you field an extra player. I’ve been in both the winning and losing side of this. Just grateful I get to play like a child!

Sadly enough

I see this all in aspects of child development. Check this out...this happened this week:

Backstory: After our youth football (soccer) team scored to make the result 7-0, our coach instructed the kids not to score anymore (this was not mandatory...he did it so as to not further run up the score). Well, our kids' instinct is too push forward so...

Just called the Porsche dealer today, the receptionist answering the phone was incompetent and the Finance person couldn't even quote warranty prices in a competent manner.

It's likely a culture problem. In America, some people in certain jobs that they view as temporary really don't take pride of ownership.

I expect my watch salesperson to know a fair amount about the watch. Go to some of the "best" dealers in America and I doubt half the sales staff know what anglage and perlage is.

If I am a coach and my team wins 7-0 so it is nearly impossible to reverse the result I would give minutes to the players that usually are sat. If, even with that, my team keeps on scoring I do not have a problem. The other team has a problem. They must i... 

I see this is an international problem.

I got nothing but an additional scolding. Times have changed.

Haha - very good! You look for the details, obviously!

Is this the time and place to tell the story of Dad . . .
