Massachusetts has joined 13 other states in removing the college degree requirement from many government jobs.

The Brookings Institute describes this move as “low-cost ways to open state hiring processes to more applicants and improve economic mobility for qualified workers who have been largely excluded from state hiring systems.”

Tom Hollander has earned a pretty penny in films and shows like Pride and Prejudice and the recent hit White Lotus, but nothing near Spider-Man‘s Tom Holland. So when he got a seven-figure check meant for the similarly named star, he had to give it back.

This is a payroll mistake of epic proportions, and

During the Cabbage Patch Craze of 1983, I wanted one for Christmas, as did every other little girl. I did not get one, but my cousin “Geraldine” did because her mom was a department store manager. (Even though the statute of limitations on policy-violating toy purchases from 1983 has undoubtedly passed,

Everyone hates the WebMD come-back-to-the-office video, except for me and perhaps the people who made it. It was actually made by WebMD’s parent company, Internet Brands, but apparently WebMD is the division we all know about, so that’s what is getting the press.

When I told the Random Recruiter I was quoting them, they replied, “Awesome, looking forward to it! I don’t do this often at all, but

Last week, we talked about doing things when you are scared. You’ve done it before and you can do it again. And every time you did something scary before, you did not die.

Yes, I’m being flippant, and yes, I realize that people die in accidents and blah, blah,

According to a viral TikTok video, Cloudflare — an internet security company based in San Francisco — recently terminated an employee named Brittany Peach. This is a prime example of why you should always assume your employees are recording your conversations. This termination did not go well, and I’ll tell you why.

Mark Cuban just announced he will give $35 million in bonuses to employees after selling a majority share in the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks franchise. This is considerably less than the $55 million Taylor Swift reportedly gave her employees at the end of her Eras Tour, but still a huge number.

Corporate America began losing its love affair with DEI — diversity, equity, and inclusion — departments in 2023. Companies in many sectors cut DEI officers and programs — in fact, one-third of DEI professionals lost their jobs in 2023, including reductions in DEI staff at Amazon, Applebee’s, and Twitter. States also began outlawing DEI programs in state-funded

Last month, Costco workers in a store in Southeastern Virginia voted to unionize. While it’s not Coscto’s first unionized location, it certainly isn’t the trend at Costco. Only 5 percent of Costco’s 208,000 employees are union members.
