NYWEL Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 It might not be the solution but, boycott Providence could be a key, it goes from not buying new kit, black taping or removing the sponsor. We will not support this company Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does this CEO salary mean it’s not really a non-profit? Non-profits means revenue=expenses. That’s it. It doesn’t mean executive salaries are capped. In the real world, $11.5M is pretty cheap for a company with more than $20 billion in annual revenues. If you were to give $11.0M to the rest of Providence’s 120,000 employees, each person would get an extra $80.00-$100.00 a year ($8-9 a month) at best. A company with 120,000 employees with, say, an average salary of $60,000 (which is probably low) would have a yearly labor bill of $7.2B 3 1 2 1 Quote Smart is believing half of what you hear.

WBeltz Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I’ll say it at least looks better than the zuliliy ad they had before. I know that the XBOX one was a classic in terms of the shirt aesthetic, but I’m not gonna get into the logistics about Providences shady practices.

Sportswashing for healthcare conglomerates and insurance companies have gone on for far too long. I’ve had enough. Wake up, the rest of the civilized world doesn’t put up with medical care that serves only grifters and religious zealots. 2 1 1 Quote My teamsNCAA: Washington StateMLB: Seattle MarinersNFL: Seattle SeahawksNBA: Portland TrailblazersEPL: Liverpool FCMLS: Seattle Sounders FCNHL: Pittsburgh Penguins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take some :censored:ing xanax. Never defended anything Providence did in my post. You literally have no idea what my thoughts are regarding their service. They have an incredibly diverse executive board, which is hard to hate. The Chief Medical Officer at Providence is a woman from Lebanon. Kaiser has met every need my wife and I have had for nearly a decade but apparently that makes me a bad person in tankieworld. 3 1 Quote Smart is believing half of what you hear.

My wife has forbidden her from soccer (due to the boredom we’d be subjected to watching it). But, this is a Galaxy household if there was a rooting interest. Now, hockey/softball/basketball/volleyball on the other hand, those are fair game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
