Why

My coworkers are trying to figure out what truffle oil is. They have decided the best avenue to obtain this information is Urban Dictionary. This has been going on for fifteen minutes.  We are not a species meant to last.

The lights are out

Power went out and we were hungry.  Found an old food warmer and viola! Ramen. #mushroomofcourse. Love.

Raising the minimum wage - from the DOL

Myth: Increasing the minimum wage will cause people to lose their jobs.

Not true: In a letter to President Obama and congressional leaders urging a minimum wage increase, more than 600 economists, including 7 Nobel Prize winners wrote, "In recent years there have been important developments in the academic literature on the effect of increases in the minimum wage on employment, with the weight of evidence now showing that increases in the minimum wage have had little or no negative effect on the employment of minimum-wage workers, even during times of weakness in the labor market. Research suggests that a minimum-wage increase could have a small stimulative effect on the economy as low-wage workers spend their additional earnings, raising demand and job growth, and providing some help on the jobs front."
