Since the pandemic, employers have been engaging in certain types of quiet maneuvering like “quiet cutting” and employee surveillance to assuage the needs of business and stabilize their workforce. A recent study reveals that 79% of employees say they’re under pressure to perform to “show” they’re working. Many workers are retaliating with quiet workaround tactics of their own such as “quiet quitting,” “coffee badging,” “quiet vacationing” and “shadow policies.” First, It Was Productivity Theater As the quiet tug-of-war continues, so does the suspicion and mistrust on both sides.

It can only exist until the majority discovers it can vote itself largess out of the public treasury.“ If only...

It seems to be the controversial topic of the ages...only it has worsened since post-pandemic. It's the great remote work divide...also dubbed "The Great Return" and "The Great Office Return" by others. Although in theory, remote work has essentially been in existence for decades, it has only become a hot topic of late, and become aggravated even more, with the recent headline-grabbing strides of big-name employers who dared to mandate employees to return to office-based work (affectionately known as RTO)—or risk losing their jobs.

In 2015, retired Catholic priest Paul-André Harvey from Quebec's Chicoutimi diocese pleaded guilty to 39 charges of indecent assault and gross indecency. Most of his victims were girls between the ages of eight and 10. Harvey was sentenced to six years in prison.

He claimed that church officials were aware of his crimes for years. When complaints surfaced, Harvey says he was simply moved. Records show between 1963 and 2002,...

Jackson surprised. In Fischer v. United States, she broke with the court’s other liberals on Friday and joined a 6-3 ruling for the Capitol riot defendant in the case. “Our commitment to equal justice and the rule of law requires the courts to faithfully apply criminal laws as written, even in periods of national crisis,” she wrote in a concurrence, “and even when the conduct alleged is indisputably abhorrent.” Chief Justice John G.

CHAUTAUQUA — Having experienced the White House during the time of three different presidents, Andrew Card Jr., former chief of staff, has seen the changes in the political state of America during his time in the position.
