You do have "equivalent professional experience" just link them to your site.

I have professional experience, but I don’t know if I have “equivalent professional experience.” I mean, I guess I could apply for shits and giggles.

Sure you do. You write about sports on a website. They want people who write about their sport on their website. English is your native language and one of the gazillion things you study is communications, so one can assume your grammar is more than excellent. You've got 0 to lose and the whole thing is from home.

 

Starting opportunities don't get more perfect than this.

Fair, I guess I have labeled myself as “the grammar hammer” in the past. Y’all are really pulling for me :d

No, on Totallympics you often seem to be someone who doesn't much care about grammar or correct spelling of names and then brushing it aside with "I know it's wrong but I'm lazy" (even though a quick Google would be faster and less energy-consuming than explaining that you're lazy), but I have no doubt in a less informal situation than an online forum this is not an issue :p

Yes, that is correct. What write how I talk on here. I also really just don’t care about grammar mistakes if it’s not for a published statement.

One job is in Germany and the other is a 5-minute walk away from a train station I can reach with a pretty short and easy direct train connection. No thanks :p

I’m a sucker for international sports jobs. I’d fly to fricken Nauru if the NOC offered me job :p

    • I used public transit the entire time I was in Milan.   My first day was a doozy, because I had to two flights to reach Malpensa, and then the train into town was delayed, and then I got confused a station and boarded a tram instead of the metro, proceeded to travel in the wrong direction, got off, walked back to the station, found the metro, got off a station early, walked around a kilometer to my hotel, and checked in.   My colleagues mostly took cabs upon arrival, but I deduced to take the frugal approach. That said, I was a true public transit professional by the time I left Milan.   I actually enjoyed my rides to and from venues, because I'd just chat up fans and volunteers from different countries. It helped me learn more about the city too.   
    • It's the olympics, sleep is for the weak!    The first day i got there i was on a 12 hour flight from l.a to rome (flight that left mid day), lay over, another flight to milan, uber to hotel, then right away to speed skating (1500m men), then after uber to hockey venue for women's gold final, then after the celebrations uber to the hotel, i ended up being awake about 36 hours that day, the next morning i thought to go sightseeing in the center of milan, but ended up sleeping until like 2pm..... and had speed skating/short track that night 
    • I tried to get onto the metro multiple times and gave up    I had just arrived the day of from Bangkok (12 hr flight) and was just exhausted and wanted to sleep 
    • Plus, you missed out on a potential metro ride with me, which is quite priceless in my opinion 
    • My hotel was very close to Rho so was easy to get there, but it was so far from the hockey venue that after the women's gold medal match it was so expensive to get back, and also the next day after the usa slovakia semis it took forever, the asshole driver took the city and not the freeway  
    • Uber cost me $224 CAD to get back to the hotel from the OC. It basically prevented me from buying tickets to a speed skating session 
    • Romania's national team coach, Mircea Lucescu, has died half an hour ago He was in hospital since March 30th, just before the friendly match against Slovakia. Unbelievable how the life can have such turns...in March 26th he was in Istanbul playing the WC qualifying play-off vs Turkiye and now he died.    Thank you very much for every moments you bring us in your huge career (he's on 3rd place in a most trophies won in career, after Ferguson and Guardiola) and may your soul rest in peace, Mr. Lucescu. 
    • Satanyahu bombarded this synagogue in Tehran ...he is antisemitic     
    • They removed the original post and released an official message.   https://worldathletics.org/news/press-releases/athens-2030-world-marathon-championships
