Tuesday’s good reads roundup

Poor Tuesday. Lost in the sea of a shortened work week. It’s not the dreaded Monday. It’s not Hump Day/first of July. It’s not Thursday, which this week is Friday. It just sits there, waiting to be ignored.
The news stops for no one, however. And once again the news world was buzzing with huge stories (another plane crash, Franken being declared a winner of his race). In all that were plenty of stories about jobs, job search and the workplace. Here’s what we enjoyed reading today:
- A new minimum wage goes into effect this month for many people.
State minimum wage going up a quarter - If you’re looking for work, why not advertise on the back of your car?
Another Sign of the Times - We Work Buzzers would never, ever think of uttering a bad word.
What the #%@&!?: The problem of profanity in the workplace - Dumb economy’s depriving children of the joy of fireworks (and boring car trips to relatives they don’t care for).
