Women are taking pay cuts as companies mandate return to office Researchers are identifying several key factors behind why gender pay gap – which had narrowed steadily over the years – has suddenly widened.

After decades of progress on closing the pay gap between men and women, it’s now widening. For the first time since the 1960s, the earnings gap between men and women has widened two years in a row, according to recent data from the Census Bureau.

It’s very annoying how exercise and eating a healthy meal instantly makes me feel better, but I seem to forget how to do those things every day.

5 Minnesota county sheriffs sign agreements with ICE to provide local assistance As of April 8, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has signed more than 400 agreements with law enforcement agencies across the country.

Several local law enforcement agencies are now working with ICE to identify, and in some cases, arrest immigrants set for deportation.

Coca Cola Oreos taste like the real thing and have pop rocks so it’s like it’s carbonated!

Yes!

Please urge the governor to actually negotiate with unions instead using DOGE like tactics on his own state workers.

Do democrats just say they support labor or do they use them as political pawns in state and local politics?

We all know that you can’t even afford the office space and new equipment to set up two ergonomic work stations.

This is a bluster and a cheap negotiation ploy to balance the budget taking a DOGE shaped sledgehammer your workforce.

It’s about securing a childcare spot that they can pick up and drop off their kid while shifting their schedule later or earlier as needed. People have already secured times for the summer and the waitlist for new times is months out. That’s what they’re talking about.

It’s worth pointing out that all summer child care sign up dates are long past. It’s really easy to take a lunch break, grab the kids at 3 pm (which is when a lot of camps end the day) and finish work.

Extended care isn’t always available and adds expense if it does.

It’s so productive to incentivize workers to spend an hour every day walking across town to buy nasty Chipotle.

Not that we have any time or money to routinely do this with the insane cost of living.

This is just placing the financial burden on government workers.

About conceding to corporate business interests and landlords.

Well this feels like a total betrayal in retrospect. How disrespectful to wear a MAPE scarf, stand in solidarity with us, and then do this?
