LMFAO I love it when J. Cole gets hate for saying something and then yall GOATs vindicate him the next day😂😂😂😂 first Jay-Z then Michael Jordan. Now yall left conflicted
Some of you MFs are so bothered by everything J. Cole related.
- He sells his mixtape for ONE dollar - “why is he charging for a mixtape?!”
- He raps competitively - “he CAN’T call himself the best or be taking shots. I don’t wanna hear it!”
- His fans call him the best and show excitement for his new music - “J. Cole fans are so annoying because why are they calling him the best? Bots!”
If Cole ain’t for you, go sit down somewhere and STFU!
Nobody is forcing your goofy ass to listen, purchase, have an opinion, or respond to anything he does.
“Can I bring my baby to the interview?”
The message came in at 11 PM:
“Hi, I have an interview with you tomorrow at 2 PM. My childcare fell through. Can I bring my 8-month-old? I understand if you need to reschedule.”
Old me would have rescheduled.
Unprofessional. Distraction. Red flag.
New me replied:
“Absolutely. See you tomorrow.”
She showed up with her baby on her hip.
She apologized three times before even sitting down.
Ten minutes in, the baby started crying.
She tried to soothe him while answering questions.
She apologized again.
I stopped the interview and said:
“Hey. You’re managing a fussy baby, answering complex questions, and staying calm under pressure. That’s literally the job. Handling chaos while staying professional. You’re already proving you can do it.”
Her eyes filled with tears.
We hired her.
She’s been with us for a year now.
The most reliable team member we have.
Why?
Because when you’re used to handling a screaming infant at 3 AM and still showing up to work the next day, workplace stress feels like nothing.
Working parents, especially mothers, are some of the most organized, efficient, and resilient people you’ll ever hire.
Yet we lose them because our hiring processes are built for people with zero caregiving responsibilities.
If your interview process can’t accommodate a parent facing a childcare issue, you’re not filtering for professionalism.
You’re filtering for privilege.
@DevaronPerry Of course! Obviously like we’ve all been saying that it’s really contingent on Mobley becoming more aggressive and the focal point so we can see what he truly can grow into, but this team has so many options along with Garland being empowered to look for his shot more
@DevaronPerry@ItsCavalier_Pod@BleavNetwork@AcrossCavs@FearTheSword Listening to the pod & you made the Steve Kerr comparison. I know it’s early on but I agree and have been making this comparison for months now. JB was like Mark Jackson, creating a great defense and built in discipline and now Atkinson, like Kerr, is opening up the offense!
