I mean...are they arguing they aren't busy enough? Taking tickets for the Pirates can't be hard work. Can it?

yikes

I know a guy who worked at Busch stadium, up till this season(car got broken into, he said frick it, im done).

They make $25 an hour to be ushers.ticket takers, etc there. There is a union, but i dont think he paid anymore than 10ish dollars a month.

you can make more, and they had some decent perks.

for $25 an hour, i dont think it's a bad gig, but those fricking summer days do get brutal.

i worked game days for the reds 10ish years ago and everyone was making $10/hr. i believe that's gone up to about $12-$15 or so but definitely not anything like you're talking about.

The Pirates are nothing more than a training team for other, bigger teams more committed to winning.

It’s a shame that they are an actual MLB team that doesn’t even try to win. They just… exist.
