How to Lose Fans and Alienate Teachers

Welcome back! By the end of it all, Jolly Ranchers will be my sponsor, but I hate em’. 🫥 

Because they taste like flavorful rocks.

If you’re anything like me, we eat starbursts instead.

Cause they different, flavorful, and easy to chew. That’s what B² is!

We take the hard out of the Ai and entrepreneurship and add a lil flavor.

B² helps you unlock your potential and rise with purpose.

In our first newsletter, I told you all we would focus on the intersection of Ai, skill stacking, and mental health.

THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT THIS IS. I PROMISE!
 

Jolly Rancher - This is going to take some time and go fast— kind of like this year.

I’m interrupting the regular format to bring you lots of memes and the worst of the worst from a billion-dollar athletic company branded off the back of THE Goddess of Victory and War. Asking teachers to work for free because “kids” is just low.

Now, they, who shall not be named, should know better, but they tend to follow the same equation time and time again.

For my math heads, let’s throw PEMDAS out the window, savvy?

The Clench

Nothing makes my butt tighter than corporate greed and ignorance. Here’s the rundown. A Redditor shared an email from The Goddess of War company inviting teachers to volunteer their time, skills, and services to the children of our future, in the form of essay grading. For FREEEEEEEEEEE.

Cue the audacity. Now Beehiiv has an issue with allowing embedded posts. I dunno what’s going on but just click the picture instead. 🫤 

Now, my good sis in education decided to answer the call.

The TLDR version of her response:

Her actual response:

Translation: FTK (iykyk)

Now, I don’t know who their in-house AI strategist is, but clearly, they missed an opportunity.

You mean to tell me that no one thought it would be more efficient to use AI to grade these essays?

I don’t even want to talk about it anymore.

What Have We Learned

Let’s hope that a healthy dose of common sense is always included, but as we know - it won’t. And guess who will be here to bring you another hot take?

In conclusion, while we navigate the world of corporate antics, audacious requests, and the never-ending quest for common decency, remember that B² is here to add a touch of flavor to your journey.

As we explore the intersection of AI, skill stacking, and mental health, we'll continue to bring you the latest insights, memes, and even the occasional hot takes on billion-dollar athletic companies.
