In this tight labor market, a growing number of companies are trying to discourage workers from quitting by charging them. Stay or pay clauses are becoming a thing in more workplaces. We’ll talk about who really bears the cost of calling it quits. Plus, how Federal Reserve economists are taking a page from journalists. And Snoop Dogg, the master marketer!



Here’s everything we talked about:


“Federal Reserve Seeks Anecdotes Over Economic Data for Uncertain Outlook” from Bloomberg

“The Stay-or-Pay Clause That Demands You Pay to Quit Your Job” from The New York Times

“Snoop explains going smokeless – and it’s not what you thought” from CNN

“Thanksgiving Travel: No One Should Pick You Up at the Airport” from The Wall Street Journal
