...and she plays a radio telescope operator at an observatory.

LOL, I think that's what they call, "casting against type".

Don't have to worry about that too long. Thanks to Obama, tracking the companies that are going to have to reduce hours to survive under his policies is going to become a full time job.

I’ve honestly never heard of Filion or Savage before. I have heard of Sarah Silverman before, unfortunately. She is easily one of the least funny people on this planet.

A real shame to see one of my favorite actors (Fillion) exposing his ignorance like that. For those who care, on “Castle” he plays the title character, a “famous” mystery writer who occasionally plays poker (or did early in the series) with well-known screenwriters. In-show, he’s rich enough to buy a New York restaurant on a whim, and lives in a downright huge apartment in the city. The show is ok, not great, and is *really* formulaic, but he is a good actor, so it is still enjoyable.

Obamacare has not even started yet. This ONE Wendy's restaurant probably just is not doing enough business to maintain the hours they give to their employers. Both sides are exploiting this decision, but that is typical.

My employer has “only” a $25,000 annual limit ,so got a waiver because obamacare mandates over a million $$ annual medical limit.MY employer certified that coverage at that level is unaffordable..

I got a notice from my employer provided insurance in Oct, 2010 that my premiums were going up 30% starting Jan 2011, one reason given explicitly was that due to a provision in the "affordable care act", going into effect as of Jan 2011, that required no life time limit. It was previously $5 million limit.

The other reason, also explicitly stated was that, up to 26 year old children must be included on the policy.

My premiums are now almost 50% higher than they were in 2010.

I cannot afford any more of this "free" insurance.

He’s an Alberta, born and bred,so you’d think he’d know better.

Well, even (at least) 20% of native Texans voted for Obama. Some of the city folks in Calgary and Edmonton lean left.

I hope the Wild Rose party got a new chair after last year's debacle.

Where they get their ‘news’....

The Center for American Progress is a progressive public policy research and advocacy organization. Its website states that the organization is “dedicated to improving the lives of Americans through progressive ideas and action.”. The Center presents a liberal viewpoint on economic issues. It has its headquarters in Washington D.C

Its President and Chief Executive Officer is Neera Tanden, who worked for the Obama and Clinton administrations and for Hillary Clinton’s campaigns.

Its first President and Chief Executive Officer was John Podesta, who served as chief of staff to then U.S. President Bill Clinton. Podesta remains with the organization as Chairman of the Board. Located in Washington, D.C., the Center for American Progress has a campus outreach group,

Campus Progress, and a sister advocacy organization, the Center for American Progress Action Fund. Citing Podesta’s influence in the formation of the Obama Administration, a November 2008 article in Time (Jay Carney) stated that “not since the Heritage Foundation helped guide Ronald Reagan’s transition in 1981 has a single outside group held so much sway.”

It’s not just Wendy’s - all fast food restaurants are letting full timers go as well. My daughter runs 5 McDonalds and her heart grieves for the people she has to let go or cut back - but these are the times obummer gave us.

Yes...Wendy’s is not the only place....many fast food chains are dropping hours (to below 29 hours) on part timers, and laying off full timers that are on benefits...

If actors and actresses knew anything about numbers, business, economics, etc. would they pay such horrendous fees and percentages to agents and business managers? Actors and actresses are the last people anyone should look to for advice or an opinion on business. Go back to memorizing your lines and working on that pouty face look sweetheart. Real businesses have to deal with real world income and expenses. obamacare has upped the expense side, gotta cut other expenses to balance the books.
