A woman put her boyfriend on a “performance improvement plan” to save their relationship

A performance improvement plan, in the tech world, is something sent out to employees that are just about to be fired. A woman who claimed that her and her boyfriend “weren’t compatible” even though they shared “a lot of love”, and so she created a list of daily things for her boyfriend to fix.

@nadeenhui

we started living together really early on in our relationship so we saw all of each others living habits and lifestyles super quickly. and i honestly think it worked out better this way because we could decide if we actually wanted to work on these lifestyle habits together or split up. since it was so new, there wouldn’t be much love lost and we’d still be friends. but ultimately, we decided that we wanna stay together, and these lifestyle changes were for the better so why not do it? i had to learn to be more accepting and easy going, and he had to learn to be more tidy and considerate of shared spaces. #relationshipadvice #softwareengineerlife #lifeintech #girlsintech

Indiana workers suffer more stress than nearly any other state

According to a 2022 Gallup report, nearly half of America has an unhealthy relationship with work. 44% of workers are stressing out about work in a way that can be categorized as “unhealthy”. Unfortunately, for our Crew Members in Indiana, you have it worse than most.

The US Bureau of Labor Statistics calculated the average number of hours worked per week, statewide unemployment rates, and at-will or right-to-work employment laws, and the results showed that Indiana was the 10th most stressful state to work in in the country. The top 10 played out like this,

  1. Nevada
  2. Mississippi
  3. West Virginia
  4. Louisiana
  5. North Carolina
  6. Oklahoma
  7. Arkansas
  8. Alabama
  9. Tennessee
  10. Indiana

Region members, we salute you.

Citibank suggests Chicago man “contact thieves” who robbed him and took his savings

If you are the victim of a strong-armed robbery, don’t expect your bank to step in to assist you. Colin Johnson, a 24-year-old in Lakeview, learned that hard way that Citibank would be of no assistance after his money and phone were taken from him last August. The thieves immediately went into his phone and drained his bank account through Zelle. He lost $11,000 by the time things were done.

The bank declined Johnson’s requests for a refund and declined his appeals. When Johnson got in touch with them over his money, they suggested, “You may wish to reach out to the recipient directly to resolve this matter.”

Only one issue with that, Johnson was, you know, robbed, and didn’t know the thieves personally.

Johnson said he’s still waiting on a small portion of refunds from Citibank, but the majority of what he lost is now back in his savings account.

Study shows Coke and Pepsi will raise your testosterone, grow your testicles

Mice and men are feeling the effects of Big Soda. A series of tests showed that adult male mice had larger testicles and higher testosterone after consuming both Coke and Pepsi. This goes against the long-prevailing thought that sugary drinks lower your fertility.

Experts are urging men to not run out and drink lots of Coke or Pepsi. Soda can still lead to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and tooth decay.  

According to the study, “One group of 30 male mice was kept in a cage, and their water bottle was filled with 50 percent Pepsi mixed with tap water. Another 30 mice were kept in a different cage and given pure Pepsi.”

After a 15-day study, the mass of the mice’s testicles was significantly higher in the groups that drank Coke and 100% Pepsi, compared to the 50% Pepsi and control groups.

Florida is looking to ban dogs from sticking their heads out the window

I don’t even recognize this country anymore.

A new Florida bill would make it illegal to let a dog be in a driver’s lap or stick their head out of a window of a moving car. The bill would require dogs to be secured in a crate while in a vehicle on public roadways, be restrained with a safety harness or seat belt other than a neck restraint, or be under the physical control of someone other than the driver while in a car.

Should the bill pass, it will go into effect onto October 1.

Illinois prepared to pass a bill guaranteeing paid time off

Legislation requiring Illinois employers to give workers time off based on hours worked, to be used for any reason, is ready for action by Gov. J.B. Pritzker, who said he will sign it. While most modern nations already have laws like this, only Maine and Nevada offer guaranteed paid vacation. This law will not require employees to disclose why they need time off, only that they follow the procedures in place by their employer to ask for the time off.

Seasonal workers such as lifeguards will be exempt, as will federal employees or college students who work non-full-time, temporary jobs for their university.

The legislation, if passed, would go into action on January 1, 2024. Employees will garner one hour of paid leave for every 40 hours worked up to 40 hours total, although the employer may offer more. Employees can start using the time once they have worked for 90 days.
