A woman who’s chosen to say nup to the cup because the racing industry is just ‘animals being exploited by the rich’ has come to the startling realisation that she too, is an animal being exploited by the rich.
Despite being reasonably well paid with her tech sales position, Amelie Waterdeep, 29, says she knows for a fact that she’s made her boss an ‘absolute fuck ton’ of money this year, and certainly a lot more than the measly $150 bonus she got last month.
Now, sitting in her small office cubicle as she explains to her older coworker why she didn’t want to participate in the office sweepstakes this afternoon, Amelie is starting to notice a few too many similarities that have her reevaluating her life.
“I can’t support racing, not when it’s just a drug fuelled, profit driven industry that sees horses as expendable assets, existing only to line the pockets of rich people”, says Amelie.
“Like sure, they may toss a bit of extra molasses in their oats when they’ve had a win, but that’s nothing in comparison to the earnings they’ve made off the back of the horse’s labour.”
“And then when they no longer serve their purpose, these rich arseholes don’t give a fuck what happens to them!”
More to come.
