    1. I don’t find it humble bragging. That’s her way of saying na kahit inalis siya, sobra sobra yung naging kapalit. She’s blessed to find an employer who appreciates her talent and skills.

    2. Parang hindi ako convince na inalis sia dahil mataba sia, she underperformed kaya sia inalis or someone is better on her place.

      Kasi di ba nun nahire naman sia mataba na sia.

      Ang daming mataba na okay naman ang work.

      Isa na naman to nagcrecreate ng imaginary discrimination.

    3. I agree with you 1254. It shows that you can find value elsewhere. Mga bitter talaga mag isip ang iba.

    4. 12:15 Negative mindset ka kasi teh. Yun lang yun.

    5. Need nang attraction ng PBA kaya dapat sexy

  2. Nakakahiya ang Pinas sa paglalagay ng looks sa criteria. Di naman uso yan sa ibang bansa. Pero i think it’s like a dress code ng trabaho yung inuutos sa kanya. Like, hairstyle etc. Like kung FA ka. Need naka pusod. Susunod ka. Yes, I know toxic rules pero rules are rules. Kung di ka talaga susunod. You need to leave that toxic place. Wag ka mag reklamo pag inalis ka. Dapat unahan mo sila if you think it’s toxic, leave.

    1. At 1:20. Agree! Unfortunately, only in the Philippines. Ay, only in Asia pala.

    2. Im sure you havent event travelled the world

    3. Jusmio anong hindi uso sa ibang bansa? Kahit saan uso yan hindi lang sa pilipinas. Mas matindi pa nga sa america. Kung makapag down ka naman sa sarili mong bansa

    4. kung totoo ang kwento. why would she even be hired kng ayaw nla ng mataba?

      Delete
    5. Thing is she was hired already. Tinanggal lang. Kung may ganung requirements in the first place sana sinabi sa simula qualifications na kailangan for the job or at least sinabihan sya she needed to look a certain way to keep her spot. Hindi yung tinanggal unceremoniously.

      Delete
    6. 8:17 She started daw 2022 so possible na balingkinitan pa siya and just gained weight over the years. Gets mo?

  3. Medyo chubby ako pero come on may mga trabaho talaga n mas maganda sa mga fit like if nasa tv. Masakit s mata and unhealthy tignan. Like mga stewardess, wlang mataba db.

    1. not true. i flew PAL before and may matabang FA sa flight na yun.

      Delete
    2. Maraming obese na flight attendant dito sa US since after the pandemic ( based upon my observation as I travel a lot for business ) Also , based on my experience , the “more attractive and fit FA are way nicer and treat you like a “royalty “when you are in the FC seat. Please don’t bash me but the more “fit and attractive “ type of FA are way nicer and more genuine when it comes to dealing with passengers.

      Delete
    3. Meron mga chubby.tey travelling Europe.madami sila.seen many already and I like the fact na hindi puro tikling ang flight attendant.

      Delete
    4. Actually may nabasa akong mga comment sa ibang site sa issueng ito na di naman daw sa pangba-body shame, kaya lang medyo off daw talaga panuorin na ang lapad noong nag iinterview sa mga player and mga lalaki pa talaga yon.

      Delete
    5. Asia lang may ganung standard when it comes to flight attendants. Tho super rare may malaki pa rin ang built (saw some sa CP at AA). If sumakay ka ng airlines from North America or Europe (especially Europe) walang ganung standard.

      Delete
    6. Clearly you haven’t seen US FA’s

      Delete
    7. Sa United airlines ang tataba ng stewardess.

      Delete
    8. Here in the US, they don’t care about looks ng FAs. And we always fly Delta. And those times we flew United or AA, wala din pake sa looks. That says a lot about Filipino mindset na dapat baguhin

      Delete
    9. napunta sa airlines ang topic. guys, criteria yan ng company. if you dont like it, apply in another that suits you.

      Delete
    10. 1:31 AM - NAPAGHAHALATAAN NA DI KA PA NAKAALIS NG BANSA. HAHAHA. SA WESTERN WORLD, MADAMING CHUBBY AT DI GANUN KAGOOD-LOOKING NA F.A.S. I USED TO DATE A CHUBBY FA. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

  4. This is really true in the entertainment industry. Watch the movie Bombshells. It is about the sequel harassment that happened in Fox News Network.
    Even st a rival network in the US, a very qualified host was removed after years of success in working on their show and was replaced by younger and slimmer new host.

  6. may work na dapat fit and pleasing to the eyes.. ako ei tabain na pero choosy sa mga taong want kong tingnan sa tv

  7. I like watching sports and isa sa mga pet peeve ko yung walang alam o basta lang isinalang dun tapos hindi nag rresearch and yung hindi neutral or biased. Mga top of mind na naisip ko na nabwiset ako habang nanonood is yung coverage nung lumalaban sa Olympics si Caloy. Gets ko naman na Pinoy kayo and biased towards him pero tumitili pa tas kahit ibang competitors na nagpperform, si Caloy pa rin bukambibig and yung scores ng ibang competitors puro in relation to Caloy. Nag effort talaga ako maghanap ng coverage na hindi local commentator. Isa pang nabwiset ako is nung FIFA Womens Wold Cup nung lumaban Pinas. Halatang kung sino lang sinalang pero konti lang alam sa football kaya ni mute ko na lang kasi on air nagtatanungan pa kung paano offside.

    Sad that she lost her job dahil sa weight nya. Since she got the job na, sana man lang if may preferred look sila sinabihan sya and they let her lose weight and let her keep her job. Good for her that she found a job na mas rewarding at mas na appreciate talent and skills nya.

  8. Connie Sison and Jessica Soho are plus sized? But mainstream news sila not sports.

  9. sos ang pretty nga. and she's not mataba. sobra yung nag-fire, akala mo perfect. inggiterang' yon. na-intimidate kay ira.

  10. Kung eye candy ang gusto ng management sa dugout wala kayong magagawa, dahil sa entertainment sports ka assign , they want a young eye candy next to a tall athletic players para maganda ang registry sa camera, haba naman ng pa essay mo hindi mo naman na meet na standard nila. If you really want to cover play by play you should be sitting down and analyzing the game not interviewing the players dahil those jobs are only fit for starting reporters. Peace✌️

  11. They say you gain 10 pounds when on TV.
    So valid naman ung job requirements. People want to watch who's aesthetically pleasing to watch --- pretty face, sexy lean figure, gorgeous skin, etc.

    Ganun talaga. Rejection happens anywhere and even to the best of us, that's why we can't be complacent.
    Nobody is indispensable.

  12. mataba agad di ba pwedeng happy lang?
    sis so pag payat ba sad?

    mas maganda pa kung sinabi nyang “mataba agad di ba pwedeng napasarap lang nga kain? 🤪😂

    1. Ibig sabihin siguro niya eh mataba dahil naging happy lang siyang kumain. Ang sensitive mo naman beshy.

    2. Hahanap at hahanap ka talaga ng ikaka-offend mo noh, 6:49?

  13. Kung magaling ka, kahit medyo majubis di ka aalisin. Pero kung di na kagalingan tapos majubis pa and sa TV work.. ayun lang! mabuti na lang din na nakahanap ka na ibang lilipatan.

  14. i don't condone this toxicity in a workplace but she said it herself, medyo valid naman pala ung weight reasons. but on point sya sa women bringing other women down.
    i've heard the same story kay Hazel Hottie, nakwento nya sa radio show years ago when she was still a courtside reporter same kwento about hair and make-up. so this mist be true.

  15. Hindi ba si Erika Padilla ay PBA reporter na full figured rin pero she still was a courtside reporter for 6 years? I'm not ivalidating her experience pero may iba rin naman na successful in their field

    1. Erika's face is pretty. Filipinos though we are very critical of weight, face card pa din ang gusto.

      Delete
    2. The moment you compared her to another, you're already invalidating her experience.

      Delete
    3. 10:10 not invalidating at all. I’m just curious why some plus sized women in the same field didn’t have the same experience as Ira. Ira keeps mentioning in her post na body type ang basehan pero clearly it doesn’t apply to every plus sized women na nagapply to be a courtside reporter

      @5:59 you have a point

  16. She wants the job but on her own terms. Gusto niya pinupuri pero ayaw ng constructive criticism. She better put up her own company para siya ang boss.

    1. Nah. What the female boss is saying isn't even constructive criticism. Kung constructive yan, focus on the skills, reporting method. Hindi sa itsura.

    2. 4:45 how you look in front of the camera doesn't matter???? Dear, let's get real. People will watch you, not just bec of your interviewing skills, but how you register in front of the camera.

  17. syempre kwento mo yan teh. bidang api ka dyan

  18. The woman perhaps was being discreet to say she's fat but in reality, the Ira isn't pretty enough for the camera.

    2. Was about to comment this… based sa photo…

  19. FYI, there are certain positions/ jobs and workplaces that require face value and fit body. in this case..it's sports. in my own opinion, the female who kicked you out has the right criteria. ang mali lng, they should have told you "to trim down or else", para my heads up if you are really willing to stay.

    1. I do not think it is the PBA Director. Head of a Network daw. I kinda have an idea who she is kasi laging bida bida yon pag PBA games. Mataas kase ang katungkulan.

  24. Baka naman di ka talaga magaling at pasaway ka based na rin sa story mo. Baka magreact yung sinabihan mo ng slim lang pero no experience at mas magaling ka dun lol Magtayo ka ng sarili mong company. Para ikaw mag judge. May chubby jan na reporter eh yung Erika

  25. anak siya dating PBA player, palagay mo hindi naging advantage ang surname mo at nakuha ka based on pure skills. siyempre ikaw ang bida sa kwento mo
