Except as far as the recording shows he didnt get her agreement to call her a b*tch. He got her agreement to say “I think Taylor Swift and I might still have sex” or whatever. According to her (and the video backs this up) she never heard the line after saying “I made that b*tch famous”

Except Kanye wasn’t recording for Kim’s sideshow; he was recording for his own archives.

It would seem that TS has an incredibly thin skin, if any of this is true. I only say that because she has made an entire career off of dating and dumping famous men, then writing a song about it. In fact, it just seems like most of her songs are hit pieces about people she doesn’t like for some reason or other. But…

Punishment is a fine, according to the gizmondo article.

Is it possible that many women’s salaries are affected by dropping out of the workforce or taking time off to have children?

I am 99.99999% sure that the header photo is a the TD Centre in Toronto, where I am currently sitting in my dumb office job. And I just turned 32...

like i care. i don’t wanna be a manager anyway. i need to have time to make babies. if i don’t have them by 32, it’s never gonna happen because my womb will basically have tumbleweeds rolling around in there. and no man will want me if i can’t have kids, so what do i need extra income for? if no man wants me, i don’t…

Uhm...who are they?

Then people who don’t have children should also get mandatory time off, to be taken for any event they choose. I certainly don’t want to be stuck doing all the work and getting no time off for important things in my life because I don’t have children.

Thanks! I just wish freelancers would talk more openly about their shitty pay so that companies might be shamed into paying them a fair wage, whether they’re being compensated for their time or product. I believe that if the very loyal readers of this blog knew what their favorite writers were paid it would definitely…

My company’s solution (Publishing btw) is to change all salaried employees who make under $47,477 to hourly. As an already hourly employee who is absolutely not allowed to work any overtime, not even .1 minutes, I forsee this not going over well with some of our editors. Our boss is pretty awesome in that she doesn’t…

If you can’t afford to pay your workers fairly, you don’t need to be in business.

I worked in tech for summer stock theatre as an intern. I got a $100 a week stipend plus housing and frequently worked 100 hour weeks.

Bill plans to repurpose an old iPod touch as the company’s “time clock,” which will cost “a grand total of $4.99.”

I swear I read this article already with the exact same title? Is this a repost? If it wasn’t on Jezebel, it was on a Gawker blog somewhere.

How will this affect retail managers/assistant managers? I’ve been wondering about that a lot. About ten years ago, I was a department manager for a quasi-hipster retailer. I made $28K/year and was expected to work minimally 50 hours a week, with no overtime pay. It was even more extreme during the holidays. I’ve…

That’s standard for any industry that pays overtime.

Hopefully the people who are affected by this are only affected in a net positive way but in my experience being shifted from salary to hourly, it could make life worse. I’ve been in the same job for not quite 7 years and about 5 years ago they switched most of management from salary to hourly to avoid lawsuits over…
